Looks good, Eric!

Good work Eric

I was very happy with my order from Rich, came quickly too! Got about 4" this morning then changed over to rain/mix earlier and now just rain

. We have flood warnings and high wind advisory, yea!! Supposed to be in the 40's and lots of rain tomorrow.

Here's a pic of the 124's brake retainer. Is there enough brake pad?? Don't see anything in the service manual about replacing it or wear tolerance

Just don't want to put it all back together if I should replace it.

juniors1282, do you have the diagram on how to wire a mag in a 782? If not, let me know and I'll send it to you.

Jude,

You wouldn't know what to do with yourself if you saw his place, plus you would be broke if you lived as close as I do, LOL. He was getting a really nice model 70 running today when I was there. He put it on CL tonight, sharp tractor with fenders. I'll have to try to get a picture of our lake it's the highest I've seen it since we moved in 10 years ago. I'm not sure about the brake pad I would say look at a new one and see how much lpad is on it, if it looks like it has a lot more I would replace it, just a thought.

AJ,

Not yet I was going to get one from Rich today and forgot. If you could send it to me that would be great. Don't be affraid to send any other info. you think I might need, lol. From what Rich said today it's sound pretty easy, but any extra help would be great, Thanks.

I'm going up tomorrow afternoon to pick up the motor

Let's see if this works.

Sminkey, you might as well replace that while you are in there...it isn't too expensive, and it doesn't look like there's much left of the one you have.

Yeah,i think it would be a good idea to replace it too,i dont think it has a lot of life on it,and you dont want the metal part to start grinding on the brake disc.

I have been wanting to make some foot pads from diamond plate. I was at a local mom and pop hardware store the other day and found a half sheet of 1/4" aluminum diamond sitting on the floor kinda in the corner. Looked at the price and it said $29.98, I grabbed it and headed to the counter and asked the owner if the price was correct. She said yep it's been back there for a very long time so that's the price. I bought it. Here's the first one, still have to clean up the edges a bit but looks pretty good so far. What do you think Duke?

I'm going to make enough for all my 82 series tractors.
