Another QL followed me home!
 

I just picked up this 1250 for $100. It is missing the muffler and PTO; however, I'm only going to use it for parts for my other QL tractors. I already have plans for the engine. It is going to repower my smoking 1250 until I rebuild the engine. I do love my Quietlines!

I love mine too I try to go start mine and run them around whenever I can if your like me your parts machines will quickly multiply. But once you have them you will be suprised how much you san scavenge off of them they seem like they are worth more than what they can be bought for. Very good buy on on the 1250

Yup, I was just out in my barn with my tractors. My 1000 has a leaking axle seal and the the shifter cup needs repaired. The project would have moved along faster if IH would have used bolts instead of big phillips head screws on the foot rests!

Can't go wrong there, good deal!:beerchug:

Yes sir those big screws on the footrests are a real bugger to get off everytime I have took them off there is at least one or more that need drilled out I usually replace them with bolts.

Uh huh! I had one on each side I had to drill and that was after a week of soaking in PB too! New bolts for me too.

They make impact screwdriver sockets for 3/8 drive I'm sure cause I have a set. That's how I get them off.

I may have to invest in some. Good to know.

Wack the head of the screw with a chisel the same size as the screw head, then they come off for me with a BFSD.

I heat them and off they goes...A bit of sanding and a spray can touch up job, good enough for those old turd! :ThumbsUp:

PS: I use stainless steel button head socket bolts like those David Kirk sell, get them from a local motorcycle store.
