Gonna visit the weatherman later and have a " 2x4 up-side the head " conversation with him, I'm a bit miffed about these 20 mile an hour winds and a tad chilly in the shade. ( LOL )

Well you ol dog you. I love that little machine. I wish I could have gotten it. At least it is going to someone I know will take care of it.

Congratulations!!!

Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild

Quite the storm we have here...not. I just checked the DOT traffic cams on the highways all across the state and no snow on any of them. There is some snow on grassy surfaces in Greenwich and Darien in southwestern CT.

I made an attempt to tack weld the hinge pin in. Pretty sure it won't hold to any substantial load on such thick steel with my little 110V unit. Had a hard time seeing what I was doing with the hood lens fogging up in my unheated garage. I did get a new pin, return spring and hardware for the spring. None of the other hardware was in stock. A buddy of mine will let me borrow his plow after he's done with it if necessary. It's my plow's bigger brother, the 9'2" one, and is a bit much for my truck but it should fit and operate fine. I had one on my truck to move it for a friend once.

Watching and waiting...

And we all know where that will end

OK, Link will not work cause it is a members only forum and it costs money to join ( excludes you poor old pensioners ) so I will have to post the images.

Then, SWMBO decided shw should go to the mower collectors shows and bring "pinky" with her.
SWMBO's maiden name was Fergurson, so you guessed it she decided she would like an old Massey ( named HRH Sarah Fergurson )
This means they needed a 6 ton truck to take Fergie to shows so a new garage for the new truck.
