What? You mean you fix them INSIDE?!!!! Where's the fun in that? You can't lay down in ice cold water and mud, no numb fingers, no holding a flashlight in your mouth trying to see where a nut goes...I dunno man. You may upset the entire cosmic alignment by working inside on a tractor and being from SLC! :lol:

Oh I'm spoiled now Brett, I've even got a heated floor. I don't even have to go outside to get to the shop, I just have to go downstairs. You just have to be careful when they start in gear and drive through the garage door.

Looks good, I finished my 65 last winter . Sweet tractor. No heated floor here, but shop stays above 45 F with a little help. I am in SW Utah, above 5 K elevation. So had to do the paint on sunny quiet afternoons. Nice job on the heavy cast, is yours a high crop??

Brendon Warren · Nov 11, 2013

Yeah this ones a high arch. I'm in NNY so you need a warm place to work in the winter. This will de the third one I've done. I had it apart to put a waterpump and clutch in it so I decided I might as well spruce her up. This one has the MP as well, can't wait to see if it really flies down the road.

Hi
It will probably fly down the road going down hills with the multi power in low range. There is no engine braking then only in high!.
Leaned this the hard way when I was 14 driving a 4x4 massey 1200 in the U.K, while helping dad load and move bales. She was going a little fast on the hill, so I shifted MP to low and off she went. That was quite the fright and dad explained multi power to me after the fact L.O.L
Regards Robert

Yeah that's how I come to be working on it the PTO clutch was junk in it. It would just freewheel on hills, hopefully the clutch solves the problem, but I haven't had it together to try it out. I was thinking with it being a high arch with the MP it should be a speed demon. I have a regular with MP and it's a lot faster than the high arch I have without it. With it in low on a hill, I call it Mexican overdrive!

A heated floor! Wowsers! I got an old wood range in the shop and have to run the stove pipe yet. That'll be a step up from the salamander. My stuff tends to be too big to fit in my shop/garage.

Where abouts are you anyway? I'm on California Rd if you ever get over this way. Biggest poured concrete silo (80footer) on the road. Lost your phone # too!

Brendon Warren · Nov 12, 2013

Well to be fair my shop is downstairs in my house. My door is only an 8 footer, so I can't fit big stuff either. Which is not nesscessarily a bad thing. I live on the Oak Point Rd over by Jacque Cartier State Park. I was over your way yesterday at Ross Kostin's. My dog come from Hayes' on your road. I've sold him hay before.

Bret4207 · Nov 12, 2013

Okay, Oak Point between 37 and 12, gotcha. Hayes were next door to me. Did you actually get paid for the hay?

Brendon Warren · Nov 12, 2013

Yup right between 12 and 37. Yeah I got paid, that must of been at least 10 years ago. I think Ray passed on didn't he? I was over there three years ago, I think they had more dogs than cows.

Bret4207 · Nov 13, 2013

Nope, they're all still kicking. I'd elaborate but it would turn into something totally inappropriate for this site. Glad you got paid, I never did....

We'll leave it at that.
