The biggest problem I see is how do you keep the gear oil in the bull gear area of the axles sensor upside down they’re not getting any splash lube from the gear oil
Hi, the tractor is an isodiametric (same size wheels) made in Italy. Good for steep terrains and narrow spaces common in many parts of Italy. There used to be many brands: Pasquali, Ferrari (not the car maker), Antonio Carraro, Goldoni, Valpadana, Nibbi, BCS, some still in business. The engine of this type of tractors from the '60 up to the early '90 were almost always Lombardini (now part of Kohler group) sometimes Ruggerini or Slanzi (the latter two absorbed by Lombardini). Lombardini engines mostly modular 1 to 4 cylinders (common were 2 or 3), direct injected diesel forced air cooled. Very reliable, frugal and easy to maintain.
When I was stationed on Guam back in 67, there was a section leader named Frankhouser who had a chopped Triumph, though not as radically as the one shown. Frankhouser was one big guy both vertically and horizontally, I mean, like fat. Anyway, he would take things off the bike and bring them to work to lighten them. He'd get ecstatic if he could shave off a couple of ounces of weight to make his chopper that much lighter. I liked the guy and there was no way I wanted to insult him, but if he'd have simply lost 50 pounds..... oh well.
My uncle had 1 of these. Only 1 of 2 I've seen in 4 decades. I asked my aunt to sell to me and she agreed. Then after auction she ended up selling it for less than the grand I was gonna pay. Rule 323 of life Family will be 1st to lie and phuck u over.
Hi Justin, I am in the process of finishing a bunch of tasks in my engine bay re cutting out the remains of a roll bar, fabricating a new Relay Board mount, and some engine adjustment as well before my first start...valves, timing, locating the coil and a few other things. Your stand is awesome and I love how it is so stable. Could you ever provide the dimensions of the bars...yes, I am being lazy and will get my butt out in the garage to do some measurements but wanted to ask you first. Thanks for posting!
