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.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.

Pic 1, the jig and parts.
Pic 2, the pipe on the jig.
Pic 3, the mount on the jig.
Pic 4, how its done. The bottom gets welded, then the part slides off of the rod, then weld the top. It's a perfect angle and height every time.

After pulling my hair out (cause this project was gonna be finished last night) I thought this morning about using carriage bolts and making my own J bolt. Went to Fastenal and picked up some 9" grade 5 carriage bolts with more than enough threads, then went to the welding shop. They told me the iron worker wouldn't make the bend I needed with just 1" or so of the end sticking out so I made a jig to set in the iron worker to do it with. They are really great about letting me do stuff like that down there. All it cost me was time and now they can do stuff like this too, win win lol.
I guess this one is wrapped up, except for making more and getting them in the store.
