I can almost feel my original 10T going up in value
.

Built the 6-gear for TDP car, and the 40th.


Using the asc6693 spur, I have two leftover diff balls from the inner ring. The outer ring I wouldn't have enough of these.


Was I supposed to buy more diff balls to use this 48p?

The Manual is online

I've lost track of the total number of balls you have but I think you'll want to fully populate the outer set of holes and ignore the inner ones. Having the balls in the outer holes will transfer power more effectively than having them in the inner ones. I'll give it a try immediately, thanks! I gu...

The diff balls on the outside are much better, thanks @XLR8!








Should be easier to complete this from here on out.

Old style case with spacers and bearing in the case. Felt transmission gasket idler is a part number I don't recognize. Manual with part numbers some references to cc parts, some part numbers not updated around fasteners 15 degree casters 1/4" axle rear Also: Later style steering blocks with a...

Done with the peroxide, it did help a bit.

Worst side first.

Still some sun damage on the gear cases and front arms.



Now I can get back to rebuilding the 6-gear, and finish this.

Many thanks to Alex for putting me onto these cheap tires. I got tired of waiting for Carvers to become available again. I don't know how well these will perform compared to big name tires but they feel surprisingly good and look good. 20240523_220524.jpg Althought not my first choice I've ordered a...

The kit is up on Tower's site although it may be largely symbolic. Similar to the experience of others, Tower has not filled some of my preorders, RC10 40th included.

I found out Honda will no longer be making lawn mowers. Emission restrictions and higher profit products drove the decision. They stopped production last September, so selling off inventory now. I kept my first Honda mower for 30 years, and it ran like new when I sold it. The hydrostatic transmissio...

Not in the post but a 20min drive.
