Drove down into Missouri today to pick up the Schwartz wide front for my WD45 Allis Chalmers that I'd bought on an online auction. Was a little worried that the disassembler had cut off the steering shaft so I pondered on what I was going to have to do about that all the way home.
I've been doing some research since I got home and it looks like I won't even have to change the pedestal! From what I read the Schwartz was designed to be able to switch back and forth for those farmers who used the Allis with a mounted picker so Schwartz used the Allis Chalmers WD45 pedestal, nice. As an added bonus Schwartz made it beefy enough for use with a loader, great! The WD45 is one of my loader tractors ao that works well for me. Happy Days!
I do feel I've had a long day but since I was going that way there was an auction with a 620 John Deere selling on it that wasn't too far out of the way so I was sorely tempted to stop on my way. I ended up buying a receiver mounted platform for my handicap scooter, 2 boat tanks and an outboard motor. I found out the 620 wasn't selling until after 1:30 but it was also selling online so I left to go pick up my wide front. Unfortunately time got away from me and I couldn't get logged on before the 620 sold, it went for $1800.
I feel like I've had a long day but I've wanted a wide front for my WD45 for well over a quarter of a century and now I have it.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
