| Yeah easy to fix when you're mudding in the woods. I think the axle shafts are different on a FNR tranny compared to a Peerless/Foote/Spicer etc. |

| Just a wee update, I got some light for the ol MTD.   They're pretty nice and they're very bright  I'm going to mount them on the bumper sometime soon.

| They're pretty good. Maybe you could put guards on bumper to protect the lights because sticks etc could smash the lenses. |

| Ok, not much new this weekend, but I did re-do my axle supports so I thought I'd share that.    I think this will be much more reliable and I'm gonna gusset things a bit more later. Kind of a bummer today because the rat rod developed some pretty bad problems, so I'm probably going to focus mainly on the MTD cuz I can't be bothered with the rat rod for now, aha. _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Allis B-110, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655 & 953 - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - |

| Thanks! You mean welding rods? Well I can't get it to run very good, it seems like a carb issue but I can't get the mix even close to right. The clutch kinda stopped working again, and something is sheared off or stuck in the trans. All stuff I can fix but it's just kinda saddening haha, I'll be tearing the trans apart next semester at school. _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Allis B-110, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655 & 953 - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - |

| Yeah welding rods. I'm using 3.5mm ones which are a little too big for the thinner stuff. You could try cleaning the carbs, those 1 piece old style ones are very simple to work on. That's too bad about the clutch and trans, but it's a chance to make it better! |

| Yeah the electrodes I used for this where 5/32", so pretty thick. Yeah I've cleaned the carb before and that's what I'm gonna try first whenever I get back to it. _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Allis B-110, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655 & 953 - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - |

| You guys keep up the good work. I read what you guys are doing, man when I was your age I was tinkering more with wood at the time. I didn't start with metals really until the past 4-5 years. I've had a hobby welder, still the same one I use. I could just imagine where I would be today if I were in your shoes! Thank goodness my dad let me help with tearing engines apart back when I was really young. Tore my first engine apart and put it back together when I was about 12. Had an old tiller that did not run. Tore it apart, cleaned and polished almost every piece. Put it back together and it ran! I was pretty excited, it ran for another year before it threw the rod. Who knew.
Your builds are excellent. Very inspiring, Keep it up! _______________________________________________ Li'l RED my original modified tractor!Forum Admin -- Chat Admin-- Facebook Page Admin ATLTF Facebook Page -- How To Upload PicturesHave a question?

| Yeah, the kind of practical skills required to build/mod a mower/tractor is becoming lost among people my age.

| The world of technology seems to be the fascination these days. Just a heads up man, the flimsy sheet metal frame might bend where the brackets for the stabilization bars are mounted. |

I thought the same thing. How would you go about reinforcing that? |
