Definitely built stuff to last back in the day.

@@Zack-smith truck body is 97 with original seats.

Whoever did it, actually did a pretty nice job putting it in there. Personally I think they should've used this engine from the factory.

I use 2in heavy knotted netting. I use keep snow from sticking. I still have to go out and give it a shake sometimes but I would have to do it alot more with smaller openings.

Thank you glad you like it.

I've seen/heard of a few fixes for this Oliver power booster. You still would be without booster drive but didn't have to source all the parts to delete the unit. I think one was welding the clutch pack together and one I seen had the booster in place but the clutch pack was gone and a straight drive couple was in its place.

Factory engine was a 12hp but it was replaced with a 12.5 at some point. It goes along good as is but a few more ponies would be nice. Real glad the video helped. These are real nice mowers been trying to find more and find time to fix my other one.

@@mudbogger372 had a 12.5 vangaurd 2 cylinder all 2 cylinder vangaurds run great, cant say the same for the intek 2cylinders or the 1s, junk, the IC were better well my 14 2cylinder vangaurd should be sweet on that rig ,got my cable fixed put cable the same size as the original cables with the black coating on them so just a bit bigger but still fit in the big cable harness that runs from the steering to the back they will be a bit stronger they are not coated but galvanized tried the cable to make shure got it right now just tighten it up cost me $17.00wow better than $300 something on ebay could not believe it that was nuts 300 bucks cant wait to give it a spin when there is a will there is a way dont forget there is no problems just solutions

All things considered doing well, been plenty hot and very humid lately and getting a little crowded which is causing some grief. I always take a bunch of time off in August for tractor shows and to get stuff done around the farm. Was going to add more phesant/peafowl pens but unfortunately had to have surgery so I'm laid up on light duty for couple months.

He's on vacation and not taking any calls 😂

Not sure how I could do that. Its just the old style waffer with a micro switch.

Just a few 😉

Just a 2wd JD gator.

Netting on top, 2x4 wire on sides, no electric fence wire, and my underground barrier is just the tin is only down about 6in. Most people like to lay down wire so it's 4in underground and sticks out 2 ft around entire perimeter. Also this is a problem for the pheasants in that there's a spot for roosting to close to the netting.

Thank you glad you like the content. I recognize the name, you frequent one of the pheasant pages on Facebook. You have some nice birds. I really love my wood ducks but the Mandarins are nice not having to deal with paperwork.

@@mudbogger372 Yeah I'm on quite a few pheasant groups lol. My name is Ben BTW, SplittinTracks is the name of my Pheasantry. I didn't know that about wood ducks. Thanks

I've thought about it, I was working on a Bird tour video series but haven't been the best about getting the camera out to finish it up.

All I have is woodducks, mandarins, and barnacle geese so they're not much different then taking care of my domestics. It's just I have a heated pool, that gets flushed out every other day for them.

For sure, when it comes to cars there's a reason I basically only buy 97-99 Buick LeSabres. Getting hard to find one that's not rust rotten in my area.

Yes they ARE a very tough engine, never said they weren't. I put on atleast 30K miles on it with the oil pressure all messed up. It was a high mileage car with plenty of rust, non-working A/C, and heater controls have been redneck fixed cause the climate control took a dive over 10 years ago. It just plain wasn't worth spending the money on a engine rebuild. So I ran it till it puked and now I finally have a use for one of my spare engines.

I think it was roughly $1,000 in lumber (going to be way more now) at least 130 8ft 2x4s, and some 10ft and 12ft 2x4s. The tin was all free, I think 3 rolls of 48"x50ft 2x4 wire.

When I have them available I do.

My 880 has the helical gear trans. I'm told the shafts are different.

Thanks for the kind words. When it comes to pens I'm function over looks with cost in the middle. Not to mention when I get all kinds of scrap metal for free I figure out ways to utilize as much as I can. Getting use to UA-cam is actually fairly easy, every now and then I learn something new. The hardest part is the filming and editing (at least for me).

Thank you. Eventually going to put up a modified grain bin with a corn sheller drag line to gain more storage space.

Thank you, lucky for me I have a "few" more Olivers stashed away yet.

Thanks for the nice words, it's much appreciated. Funny you mention the hydraulic pump. I did rebuild the pump on this tractor and after I was done, I realized I should have made a video out of it. I do have a couple more tractors that need the pump done on them but I can't say for sure when I will have time to do them. I'll see maybe it's something I can get at in the next couple weeks.

@@mudbogger372 awesome! Yeah fixing these pumps seems like a pretty common operation, but I can't find a video of anyone doing it anywhere lol take care, man! I'll be watching the channel :)

@@mudbogger372 that would be SO helpful!

Even when they don't work there's not much to them real easy to get them up and going again.

Sometimes temporary turns into a couple years around here.
