How is that motor running?


Hey Lew! The motor seems to be running great now. Had some issues previously of it pushing oil but that's because I had installed the breather plate wrong. Also just had a bearing replaced in the starter/gen. So as of this point in time - perfect - or at least I think so to the be st of my abilities. I'm sure JMech could fine tune it though lol

Thanks for asking my friend!

Was the seat a direct bolt on or did you have to drill?

That is a beautiful looking tractor. It's doubly nice that it's a worker and you maintain it and keep it looking so good. Congrats on having the best of both worlds!

Sorry for the delayed reply! Not 100% direct bolt on. This new seat is longer than the orig so I welded some flat stock to the existing "springs " (that was long enough to reach the seat) drilled new holes and bam. Think of it as an adapter plate. Other than that it's a direct fit - I love it. The arm rests are great. Gonna fab up a beer......errr water holder.
