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.

Another 520-8

A lot cooler weather coming in tomorrow so I got the rest of the engine parts painted and ready to go together.  Soon I'll be able to clear that table now.

Spent a little time on the engine after things got a little quiet this evening.  Even though the starter is good I got out another one that wasn't beat to death for it lol.  I also decided to go a little deeper and do a few extra things while it was on the bench.  It had a small leak at the oil drain piping so that got redone.  A little Alumiblast machine shop paint here and there, got out a chrome dipstick + seal, then the dreaded stuck exhaust pipes...  It took about 45 mins to get them loose but it was worth it while it was off the tractor.  It's still in the rough now but will look good when everything is blasted + painted.

Got everything on the cart from last night blasted + painted.  Not a lot but something is better than nothing...  

Spent most of the day with peeps + steam cleaning, another cold front is coming in tonight.  Gotta change priorities as the weather changes to get more done.

I should have finished this today but half the day was filled with peeps again.  My OCD also kicked in and the condenser and air filter bracket, PTO race, + main drive pulley ended up off of the engine then blasted and painted.   Even though most of it gets covered up the rest of it was looking so nice it just had to be done... 

Also got a 520H panel marked with a panel off of another 520-8 here so I wouldn't forget to make one for this tractor.  The panel was gone when it got here.  Mondays are usually always wild but maybe I can finish it Monday, just maybe...

Had enough time today to finally get most of the parts on the motor and off the bench.  I have some wiring and other things to do but the main goal was getting it to where it's at now. 

It still amazes me how much the PTO bells can warp on the outside when the clutch slips, there are some pics to show it below but every one does the same thing when they slip.  It takes to much material off to get them completely like new but getting to 95% is good.  

Best news is that I have that bench back now.
