Re: Snagged a 1977 444 Close to home

Since the last post I finished painting the rear wheels and installed them, along with the fronts back on the tractor. The steering linkages were installed again for good now. I put the dash decal on as well. Tonight I put the decals on the hood and tossed it on for a pic. Looks pretty good. Still ...

Re: Loader Build

I've almost finished part one and am enjoying it. Your attention to detail and the ability to explain it all is quite astounding. One question, What is the reason for using the bronze bushing? - are they superior in this application to other solutions? Great question! Of the available options (bare...

Re: Mower deck bracket

I don't think it's the problem you're facing, but I can heartily recommend the aramid/kevlar belts for this application. I ran one on my '73 442, same deck and configuration as yours, for 6 seasons before it wore out.

The next video will cover the actual steel structure, and I expect to have that work done later this week, so...
