Thanks in advance..Joe

That's the last thing I expected when Mike said he would have a deal on his hat saying that. Thanks for being the camera man today.

Man look at the gut on that goof in the middle!

Also, it was nice to old faces and great to meet new ones today too.
All in all is was a pretty good day even though John wouldn't let me use his dang bidders number!!!!

Got back from a 300 mile business trip and then spent the evening working on the new 582 From Kurt.

It's just about ready for Little (and Big) Steven to use at Plow Day.

Sleeve hitch, spring assist, 8.50 Stones, repaired horribly worn shifter, carb rebuilt, oil changed, rear end flushed and refilled with new Hy-Tran, creeper oil topped off, and finally some Maguires Cleaner Wax to cut off all of the oxidataion and get the paint looking better......Oh, and of course, a nice ball bearing steering wheel spinner!!!!

First Post on this forum. I just Aquired a"barn fresh" what I beleive is a Model 100. (straight shaft drive 10 h.p.Kohler,round rear fenders, and hi-low range. I was wondering if the hi-low range handle should move back and forth freely, or should their be some gear resistance. thanks for your help

 

[digger]

Frank K.
There should be a certain amount of resistance but not a whole lot. Welcome!

Thanks John.

Neat Photos. Thank You for sharing John.

I mowed the duplex lawn for the last time this morning. We still haven't found the camera batteries yet. I can see our lawn needs mowing again.

Our inside/outside kittie, Fancy and I went for a little around the yard walk this afternoon. It was his first day to go outside. He made sure to check all the Cubs and Massey were here. He even showed me his tree climbing skills.

Hey Charlie- where's my looking for Digger hat??? Yeah the cubs where too rich for my blood too yester day. Infact all I spent was $5.00 and that was at the lunchstand. Good to see people though and bs with them. The little SO76 went for $550 and the pullers where buying up the geardrives like wildfire. The 782D brought damn good $$$$ considering that it didn't run!!! Sad when cubs bring more than the Deere Johns!! and John Lang was trying his damnest to get me to buy a deere???????

 

[digger]

Hugh,
Mike gave me one!
His sister owns a shop and they are really good lookin high quality hats!

My 682 is proudly wearing new pair of 26x12x12 ags,thanks to John Lang for furnishing those new Sgt rims.I appreciate the fast service he provides as well as shipping updates.Thanks John. I have found a small problem with those large tires they won't allow the deck to mount.Has anyone else had this problem and if so how did you correct it. It looks to me like the wheel mounts will have to be at least shortened or removed altogether. TIA

 

[jlang]

You guys are welcome. My pleasure.

I just spent a little time rearranging the sale photos online so they are now more in order. Some of my photos were on the internal memory of the camera and some in the Memory Card so they got a little scambled when I loaded them in my computer.

David C,

Your interference problem is the main reason the SGTs have a longer wheelbase - so that the larger tires dont hit the deck. You will need to mod the deck or get a frame stretcher.

 

[jstorma]

Hey digger, been gone for a few days, If you get a chance it would be great if you can measure the hole distances for me!

TIA!

Jim
