Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)

As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.

The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.

As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.

I should have put this up before but never did. Just got through doing the 520 we'll be mowing with this Summer so thought I would grab a pic.


Remove cable.
Drill rivet.
Insert bolt with lock washer and lock nut.
Use speed clips and screws to reassemble.
Job done and it is adjustable from now on. :)

Steal away lol. A lot easier than trying to get those dang nuts on. :rolling

I just did this on my 1988 416-8 this afternoon. I used a 1/4-20 bolt, flat washer and (2) 1/4-20 nuts (one was a jam nut with loctite because I didn't have a lock nut). It worked great and the throttle now stays at full throttle now. I can now see why you say to use the speed clips. Those little nuts were pretty tricky to get back on.

Thanks for the idea Geno!
