I'm going to sand blast the wheels today and get some paint on them as well as touch up the paint where needed.

What is really confusing is that the workshop manual tells me that the tractor has to be split to get to the shifter, where in fact if you remove the fenders and thus get access to the sheet metal that makes up the seat base (three bolts on a side) you have access to the shifter plate and it's bolts. I split the tractor without removing the seat and fenders but removed them to make putting it back together. Low and behold, the shifter plate and bolts were right there in front of me when I got the back half installed. I know I can remove the shifter with the tractor together because I had to remove it to fix the height and form of the new/old shifter I installed.

Strange.

Others with a 124 might check this out if they have to remove their shifter.

Question! Does the breather right next to the creeper gear lever have some kind of top on it? Mine was clogged up with gunk and after I cleaned it it seemed that water or anything else could just go straight down it. Seems it should have a cap or something on it to prevent it.
