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.
Just parted my first one.

Been cleaning up some of the outside mess and the Commando 8 \ trailer had to get taken apart. It had no motor, hood or front end anyway and just couldn't see saving that one. I know of some people that can use the drive also to save theirs.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

This one came with 30 of them is the only reason it's even here...

Ok so I was looking at the picture again and it appears that there is an air filter sitting on the top of the trans. At first glance I thought it was a pulley for a V-shaft engine. I was way wrong!
The Commando 8 had a H-shaft engine I believe. However I do believe it also came with a V-shaft at some point.
