Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)

As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.

As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

I really shouldn't be wasting time with this but it is so much fun, and I need some fun lol... :tounge2

I had a few tractors that I brought over from the farm for this, 1 had no motor, it was originally an Onan, what else is new lol. The other was really rough but had a good drive train. I posted a pic of them the other day after they were pressure washed. Surely they would be good for something. :confused1

Thanks Bill. :thanks

Here is some of the progression from yesterday and this morning. Frame is stripped down minus the rear pegs that I may use. The front steering bracket that was removed was cut down and moved to the rear. The steering fan was removed, it needs to be flipped the other direction. I also made a few 1/4" steel brackets to hold some things... :yes

I should have the frame portion of the steering done by lunch today. :thumb1

Main steering is all done and easy to separate. Fan to gear adjustment is all done by the collar and thrust washer, easier than factory and all done with Wheel Horse parts. I'm really trying to make this project almost all Wheel Horse parts. In case you haven't guessed this project will need to steer from the rear lol.

The joint is cleaned up and painted. I'm moving slow today, there's been a lot calls and peeps stopping in. I also know why I never do total nut and bolt restorations. I knew I would tend to go crazy and have to do each individual piece and no one can afford that lol. Do you know how many parts are in the front tach-a-matic alone? :rolling

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

It should be pretty cool, but it will be pretty time consuming as well... :thumb1

I am proud of my mount, as simple as it gets and does all directions. :thumb
