Looked like just the cart the way it was worded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you got the right tools for the job. Mine get changed when I have the shocks out in the fall regardless of if they are worn out or not. Use a hammer and chisel to pound them out. Last time I put silicon spray on the new ones before I put them in and that seemed to have helped make them easier to remove. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Blackstar Posted February 14, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 14, 2022 My son comes to me at 5pm and says “when did I put brakes on my car last?” Sent him for pads and rotors 15 minutes before the Canadian Tore store closed.

I normally run the Vespel jobbers, but took them out when I intended on selling the sled, then ran the old regular hyfax a bunch on the lake and some optimistic at best conditions. Wiped down the rails, greased them up a bit and put them on. Will probably pull them off again this summer when the skid gets another rebuild.

Sick of finding mine and his scattered all over the county. Seems like his sleds end up in my shop quite often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SayatodaU.P.eh? Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 (edited) I went batshit crazy on upgrading and adding a bunch of cordless stuff in my box at work, recently. Milwaukee got the nod. My wallet is still on fire. Edited March 13, 2022 by SayatodaU.P.eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decided I wanted a side tray to put on it. Have this: https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-storage-organization/u-s-general-tool-storage/30-in-service-cart-with-drawer-green-56607.html Wanted to put this on it: https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-storage-organization/u-s-general-tool-storage/folding-side-tray-for-4-drawer-tech-cart-green-56440.html Close(ish). Strange, because the floor models measured up like it would bolt in. Decided to work on this big project this weekend. Have to drill a 1/4"+ hole about here on each side of the tray mount slots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinfarmer Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 Went for a beer run today and came home with a John Deere RX73 rider. Think Deere's version of the Forest Gump mower. $50, doesn't like to start. Happy Mother's Day, babe! Already finding some mechanical transgressions from the previous owner(s). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing holding it back from being a good beer drinking mower is the lack of a cup holder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinfarmer Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 The only real hack thing the previous owner did, that I can find, is us a nail and a hitch pin to hold one part of the deck on. Not bad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinfarmer Posted May 20, 2022 Author Share Posted May 20, 2022 I had a "Lose your shit" moment working on one of my mowers today. A poor Harbor Freight flashlight met it's maker and the cat is scared. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
