Although I have to say a 20 horse MTD 2 stroke is something I've never heard of.

I was thinking the same thing, hahaha.


Two cylinder is what it was supposed to be I imagine.

Yeah, that one would make a lot more sense.

Good grief. LOL, but seriously, yall know what he means...

Holy cow! My dad just got back from Florida after helping one of our friends get his house ready to sell, and he gave us so much stuff that the Hummer was jammed full with all the seats down and everything, and stuff was falling out of the trailer. Anyway, he gave us THIS!  





Now maybe I can pack my old $60 Harbor Freight one with C4! LOL, this thing is a true beast! A portable jumper, booster pack, air compressor, work light, 12v outlet, battery charger, battery TESTER, and so on. It's Christmas in September!

To be honest, I actually didn't.

MTD is finished! Works like it came off the factory line!

I was going to help out after work. Work allows me to see images, just not download, upload, or modify on the host.

We've had quite the influx of new user requests since the Top Tractor Challenge.  A few of them are even regular posters.  Like most cases, most are just lurkers...  

I don't usually do this but...

530 users were pruned back in April due to accounts were old (more than 5 years) and they never logged on. (What's the point?)  If I could wipe out any user that never logged in after a month, I would guess just a couple hundred users that have actually used the site.

Sad facts:
We have several Original members that still "Log In" but never post anymore.  We also have several members that have high post counts that have just vanished.



Not sure how to keep old members contributing, or how to keep active member active.  I guess we all move on at some time.

Welcome everyone!

I feel like I've kind of abandoned the forum a bit too.

I’ve quit posting as much as I used to. Been spending more time adulting than being in the shop

Yeah I don't know, I haven't really been messing with tractors lately.

You guys are still what I call the regulars.

I think he was speaking on your behalf Beal

True enough.... No, I havnt done anything recently. Aside from trying to get the right belt for the troy bilt, but Im not sure that counts since its a grass cutter...?

Maybe Ill get the itch again sooner or later. Right now its the truck itch... and I think the gun itch has also flared up again. I have plans to soothe that one for a while though.

Ain't that the truth. I did see @Thunderdivine on here about 3 or 4 weeks ago, but then he disappeared...

I'm kinda preppin for deer season, is why I haven't been doing much. I need to get the 110 running again because it'll be really handy for recovery.

I bit the bullet, here is my new channel. Haspin videos will be coming out

Awe man.. I shouldn't have run off and left you.  I could have been the center piece of your video.  LOL


Can't wait to see what you have.

Hahaha I coulda mentioned the timing in the video. I mean what are the odds we end up on the same road at the same time coming from so far away

ARGH!!!

I have been so wanting to play with a V-twin for about a year now.  All the ones around here in OK are at least 300 for a Kohler or Intek.  Vanguards run around 600-2300.  Ridiculous prices for used engines.

So I popped off to the wife, I see people in the forums getting them right and left. They must be out east. So I changed locations out east and sure enough.  Within a couple minutes I found 8 Vanguards running between $105-150.  There was even a 20HP one for 125.  Inteks and Kohlers as low as $65.  I saw a 26hp Intek for $100.  I even seen a Kohler K341 I have been keeping an eye out for around $50 running.

Hahaha, I know how that goes. Finding an engine here is almost impossible unless you wanna pull it off a tractor.

haspin walkaround video finally uploaded. I started uploading it immediately after the entry hill video but this one shows the mk2 actually running and a quick rundown of the steering and dash layout.

Rack and pinion is supposed to arrive today
