Thank you the downside to making it pretty is you don’t want to get it dirty. I’ve ran some logging trails but that’s about it. I feel like I need to built one to bash.
@@AbbyNormalGarage I hear that, I don’t have anything even near that nice and still wouldn’t drive them through really deep mud or water, like some people do.
Nice creative build - nice concept and execution - old WH units are timeless… y’all s/b crafting/selling design plans so as to make some moola off of your intellectual property and hard work
@@AbbyNormalGarage thanks for letting me know about your build! So cool! I can’t believe you said I was your inspiration to do something cool… this blows my projects out of the water!
@@PullStartStables Thanks for the kind words. Your videos definitely inspired trying RUclips and doing something different. I'm pretty shy and reserved normally. This one was what I'd call a once in a lifetime build. I doubt I could top it. Can't afford to try to at the moment. But who knows wall fish seems to come up with new ideas. There's a guy that has a dragster made out of a craftsman rider he takes to the car shows. I kind a like that guy at the show that had the engine in the back. Looking forward to your next video! Are you planning any future trips to VA?
Can a pulley swap be done on a hydrostatic wheelhorse? My parents have an old wheelhorse that the deck rotted out on. I think it's a 250-H. Would be a fun toy if it went a little faster.
I’m not to familiar with the 250-H. On the 300, 400, 500’s hydros its not recommended. I have seen a video where a guy had and wheels with it. I don’t think it’s a long term thing though. With hydro’s you’re dealing with pumps and fluids under pressure designed to operate within a specific range. At the minimum it would create more heat and faster wearing. At maximum it could over pressure the system and blow lines and seals. I don’t know enough to say yes or no. Thats why I went with a manual. Adding power steering would be so much easier on an hydro. You could also gain speed by bigger tires. You should ask on some of the wheel horse groups. Off-road wheel horse team on facebook has a lot of guys with experience.
@@jordanrosamond594 that’s a good question. I know I have 5K in it easily and that’s with me doing all the work. It took many many days of figuring, cut, grind, weld and repeat. It would be hard to put a price on. I’d like to build another to bash! We’ve been so busy lately I can’t even think about it! Glad you like it.
I’m 100% the serial number is for a 98. It has the 96 and up pedals, and it had the 98 and up Kohler command 14. The 98 and up also had the 3 big idiot lights on the dash 85-97 had 5 smaller ones.

That they are. I like this body style the best they had the best head lights. I’d like a black hood as well.
Nice build 👍

@AbbyNormalGarage I wondered about the transmission too. I'm sure it would put more strain and wear on it. I kinda wish it was manual.
How much for a build like this if I have a donor?

great video! im gonna use some of these ideas on my wheelhorse build. check it out on my youtube if you get a chance!
Subscribed! Look forward to seeing it!
you sure its a 98? i think its a 80s dude

@@AbbyNormalGarage huh.... i guess they made that hood for a while.
@@kollinspencer847 last year was 2007!
@@AbbyNormalGarage for that hood? really? i thought toro stopped making the wheel horses in 03
