What all do you need? I have a few carcasses around.

Yep, that's why I said "87 it could be either", as in either a 350D or a 350A🤡 Wanted to make sure he knew which particular one he had.

@retro did that. Drilled a tiny hole in the top, used a grease needle, but he didn't add a zerk. He used a little sealant to close the hole. OEM tie rod ends are only $7 or $8. Tie Rods aren't cheap new, but used they are. I just use OEM ends and keep extra stock tie rods on hand in case I bend one.

Yeah I can't believe how pricey and heavy the 4 strokes are. I'll stick to my old late 60's/ early 70's motors. They run great and are easy and cheap to work on.

So small engine technician? LOL

Credit to "intoodeep" over on the Highlifter board for this listing, which was done in about 2011. The info is good info, and with no traffic over on the HL board I figured I would copy the info before it disappears. kids tire (true mud tire) guide for honda atvs Since the honda section has more " can i spin x tire with my bike" threads then all other brand sections combined, i thought this would help the youngsters. 300 stock 25s 300 w small gr 27s 300 w big gr 29.5-30 350 rancher stock 26s 350 rancher with 23% gr 27-28 350 rancher with big gr 29.5-30 400 rancher stock not possible 400 rancher gr 26s 420sra stock 27s 420sra w small gr 28s 420sra w 2 small gr 29.5-30 420sra w 35% gr 29.5-30s 420sra w 50% gr 32s 420sra w 69% gr 32s 420sra w 84% gr 32.5s (mambas are heavy lol) 420 at stock 25s 420at w sra.gr 27s 420at w big gr 28s 450 stock 27s 450 small gr 28s 450 big gr 29.5-30s 500 foreman refer to.the 420 sra chart.

Hope this helps, and remember kids stay in school and away from drugs and always wear a helmet while riding. Have a nice day!!!!!!!

Yep when working in those bins by the end of the day we were all so covered in dust that we all looked the same. I was the only white guy on the crew.

I said something to the wife a couple of days ago about this being the time of year we were running 100 hour weeks with wheat coming in. She said "You sound like you miss it. You want to be working 100 hours a week again?" No, but I do miss working outside. Being chained to a desk in an office has made me soft and bored. I still remember my boss coming out and saying "Alright, alright, park that Bobcat out here, and let it cool off. Don't want to burn it up since it's a rental" Forget the guy sitting on the engine driving it. Let's worry about the piece of equipment! LOL

That's cool. I really like the trailer too.

Welcome back. Don't you love it when you spend hours trying to figure out a problem and it's a dang $2 spark plug? How's the GMT400 coming?

Is this on that 91 300? If so, just get one of the cheap aftermarket petcocks on ebay. They work fine.

Beautiful scenery out there. Thanks for the pics!

Well the starter is out on it right now, and the updated part number required some other changes (longer battery cable, solenoid moved from under battery to being on the starter, needed longer mounting bolts etc). Gotta pick up a longer cable today and I should have it running again. Then I'm going to dig into the non-steering issue a little more. I'm guessing these are chinese tires that are hard rubber.

Mine isn't steam, it's hot water, but yep, still have a boiler in the basement, radiators throughout the house, and a small circulation pump that pumps the hot water through the system. Works great, doesn't dry out my sinuses like forced air, and is a much more even heat. The den was a garage once upon a time. My grandfather enclosed it back in the 50's, and ran lines through the floor, connected to a water heater and another small circulation pump, so that room has a heated floor. It's NICE in the winter.

Looks great!

I only buy used if it's super cheap and I plan on completely rebuilding it. You can buy a nice looking used machine that's a little cheaper than buying new, and it could have been sunk and abused for every mile on it, even if it's low miles. If you buy a basketcase and get it cheap, you go through it and check/fix everything, and then you know what you have. So I buy either complete POS's cheap, knowing I'm going to go over it, or buy new.

Is there another kind of tea? And in the South pop is a grandfather, or what you do to a balloon. It is never used to describe a drink. it's Coke. It doesn't matter if it's Sprite, Pepsi, or Dr Pepper. It's Coke. When you ask someone if they want a Coke, that is asking them if they want a carbonated soft drink. They'll say "Sure" and then you ask what kind they specifically want. Yes I know, makes perfect sense. LOL

Most of the new movies now suck. I don't watch a lot of TV, but I did watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off night before last. Last night I watched "Gunslingers" on the history channel. Story was about Bass Reeves. Guy arrested his own son when a warrant was put out for him. That's integrity right there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_Reeves What's Grey Owl about Fish?

I checked my stash. All rotted out along the bottom seam, and all but one were rotted where the pipe goes into the muffler. Junk.

Where do you live? That's the way it SHOULD be, but most places now that will get you in big trouble. We had a cat cut off of our van at work a few weeks ago. Gonna be $$$ to replace it.

I went out on the farm and mowed roads at 5:30AM Sunday morning. Got on the tractor, and kicked the bushhog in, and I'd gone about 100 yards, and was in the shade (low hanging branches from both sides, and it wasn't full on daylight yet) bugs were swarming all over the tractor. I though "There was a wasp nest under the hood of the tractor and they are just now getting irritated enough to swarm me" I jumped off the tractor and ran a few feet away and watched, and got out my phone and turned the flashlight on. They were horseflies. Never seen that many of them or seen them swarming like that, but they were thick. I mowed for about 2.5 hours and I'll bet I got 100 bites on me from horseflies and buffalo gnats. I was ate up when I got to the house, huge red welts all over me.

I saw a post on bookface a couple of days ago asking about insurance on ATV's. I called my insurance company and they told me that my ATV's were covered against theft by my homeowner's policy. That said, I only have titles on a couple of my machines, and the post I saw on bookface said that without a title, you cannot prove ownership, so the insurance company will not pay for a stolen ATV. That has me a bit perturbed, although I understand the reasoning there. Most people in Arkansas do not title their ATV's. When you title them you get to pay property tax on them every year, so most people never title them. I have a title for the wife's Rancher and a Cert of Origin on my 09 Foreman I bought new, but I never titled it because I didn't want to pay property tax on it every year.

Yeah the rebuild I did was a nightmare. I got it running and cleaned out, but everything on those runs on oil pressure. They are geared high and that 3 speed would suck for the kind of riding I do, so I wouldn't have one. I like work-style machines better, even for cruising.

There was a guy on the old board Rurouni20xx who was the Rincon mechanic. They are a totally different system than the automatic used in the Hondamatic machines that Brian rebuilds. 650 was carb'd with drum brakes, 03-05. Tended to have cam issues. 680 was EFI with discs, and hasn't really changed from 2006-2020 And Eyewitness89, I agree with you on the water cooled in the mud. I ride footshift 500's which are the last of the air cooled machines. When we get in the mud I spend a lot of time waiting on the liquid cooled machines to cool down when their temp lights come on.

Yep. I've been running my 06 Foreman like that for 4-5 years. LOL
