Great thread!! Thanks for documenting your work and especially for listing part #s for bearings and other parts you replaced. This type of thread really helps others who are trying to follow in your footsteps.
I have a #2 tiller I got with a 1450 a little over a year ago. It spent some time outside and looks like it had a hard life. The 1450 was a basket case when i got it. I haven't had a chance to get into the tiller but it will need to be gone through completely before it gets any significant use. I appreciate this thread and the work you put into documenting your restoration.
