 Topic: Wd Hi crop and WF fork lift
Posted: 07 Mar 2021 at 11:22am |
Got home from the swap meet last night. Thanks to Zach brought 2 tractors from Pa. for me. The WD came from Virginia. The WF from Fred. Filed the points and it fire up and runs. Needs the gas tank clean out and few minor oil leaks. Looks like it will stay here and be used with the I 60 use also. There was a 100 series Canopy and top there also. Pick up some fenders and D 19D side hood panel from L& L parts. Ryan brought the wheels. 36” Ca Oxnard rears and set of 38” rice and canes. 2 bottom disc plow came from Jeff Vancamp- IN. Had good time, spent 2 days there. Randy spent a lot time loading and did a great job. Nice to see a lot of people again.

Looks like you got a nice variety of treasures. That WD looks interesting. Appears to be in pretty decent shape, at least sheet metal wise. Glad to see folks getting out a bit.

Nice haul! Like to own a WD High crop. Never seen any in Australia. You guys over there certainly pull big trailers behind your utes/pickups. Do you run electric brakes on those trailers?

Most of us do. Typically trailers rated for 5,000 lbs and higher will come with electric brakes from the factory. Now, how many folks maintain and keep those brakes in good order... That's up for debate.
Many of even the half ton pickup trucks are now either coming with a factory trailer brake controller or at least have the option for it. Prodigy P series is a great aftermarket controller that in many cases has a vehicle specific plug and play wire harness available.

Yes the trailer has electric brakes that work.
You will know when they do not.
I was thinking about getting a tilt trailer a little shorter.
Price on everything is to high at this time.
Work on the WF some Sunday.
The side shift was stuck.
Between cleaning up the shafts and grease and big hammer it started to move.
All the rollers moved grease those up.
Glad it goes 4 speeds the right way, so they have the pinion flip in the tractor.
I need to replace most of the hydraulic lines.
Power steering motor needs a seal.
Will also need to replace one of the rims on the front and fix a flat at the same time.

Good to hear, bad brakes don't end well with trailers especially if they start fish tailing. I have a couple of trailers with winches one being a semi but no tilt. Would be very handy. I hear you everything is high priced here especially post Covid as all tradesman/ contractors are more busy than ever so competition for machinery is high. All the best with the restoration on them both.
