Since it is CC 100 day... This is the only one that I currently have in working order, but it WORKS!

Hey all, looking for someone who has a 102,122,124 with a rear PTO, that I can use the linkage from to create a pattern. Any thoughts or ideas are welcome. The Original parts are sadly, NLA.

Lonnie, how did you provide hydraulics on your tractor? I started doing a search, but dial-up is a killer when there are 40trillion pages and pictures with the mention of loader in the search string.

Charlie, lets see. Seat mounted to fenders. Starter and ring gear from? (Chrysler?) Notice that the bracket for the starter is welded to the frame. Looks like a similar steering setup to 'Ol Joe. What is the wiring underneath the battery box for? Oh, wait, that is a ballast resistor!

Neat story. Joe must have been quite a character. I was also noticing the dual sheave on the hydro unit, too. Is that another Joe-ism? BTW, When did IH stamp the narrow frames for the hydro unit? My TC-113 shows it as an option on a 100, but none of my 100's have the holes in the frame.

Charlie, did you modify 'OL Joe, or did he come to you that way? And just HOW in the horsefeathers do you get a 4'7" turning radius? What keeps the belt on when the motor is running? is the slack just enough to keep it in the sheaves?

James, now I don't feel so bad. Thought I was the only one that experienced that kind of, ah, failure......

Denny, I just got a closer look at your fenders. Awesome!! Do you have any plans on those, or did you just make them up as you went? I will have to show what a buddy of mine in TX did for my 124 years ago, but they are not near as pretty (or substantial) as yours.

Ooops! Armature = 'A' terminal in previous post. Brain knows, fingers don't always follow.

Ron, Mike, the procedure is to polarize the generator, and what is to be done is to MOMENTARILY touch a jumper wire from the Armature of the S/G to the Batt terminal of the V/R. I personally want more data on the system though.

I thought he might have been listing something from Guy Louderbacks place...

OK, here are a couple of resized picts showing the trencher right before it went under the knife.

Hold it! think I found somethin'

Thanks Guys. At least this time I have an answer, and it makes sense. Didn't think about the privacy issue. My apologies. Ben- Yes, you are probably right on the weights. Just like the rear fender issue. Charlie- et.al. how do I reduce the size of an image to the 100kb limit? I haven't seen...

Hey guys, anybody out there in IH land know any other trencher owners other than myself? I would like to get in touch with some of these other people in hopes to exchange information for the purpose of putting some back in operation. Nice plow pics, BTW. would be nice if some of us could...
