Yes we do. We mainly pull with Patriot, we pull with Western NY garden tractor pullers as well. But mainly patriot. 3 stock tractors, and 2 hobby stock v8s. Thanks for watching!

@@karnesmotorsports thought you looked familiar, I too pull with them! See you at the next pull!

That would be cool! I’m sure it can be done. Thanks for watching!

Good luck! Don’t get discouraged! Most importantly have fun!! Thanks for watching!

Worth a shot! It was kind of a bad design on Mother Deere’s part. I guess a 318 is even harder to do. Thanks for watching!

Watch your fingers when you put the engine back in. I smashed my middle finger. Instantly turned my nail black, had to heat up a pin and put a tiny hole in it to relieve the pressure. That was the only casualty that day and that 420 is still going strong. Thanks for watching!

Good luck! Remember “a flap wheel and paint make me the welder I ain’t!” Have fun with it! When you get done you’ll have learned a lot and be able to say “Hey I did that!” Thanks for watching!

Yea I would love to! My email is karnesmotorsports@icloud.com thanks!

I got the floor pan from rock auto. The sheet metal I used along the inner rocker buy the seat I cut out of an old ford truck hood. You can get the sheet metal anywhere 18ga would work just fine. You can try to sand the rust down. Get it down to bare metal, see how many holes are in it, replace material as necessary. Thanks for watching!

Thanks! Had I known how popular this video would be, I would’ve done a better job. Thanks for watching!

Thanks! It was my first one. Learned a lot building it. Axle came from Vogel, it was made by Doug Rood, from Rood dog chassis works. Since I built this tractor I started making my own axles. Thanks for watching!

@@karnesmotorsports I have been thinking about making my own. I gave a thought to making some spindles for a stock axle too just to lower the front some.

Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

The 3-speed shaft drive trans axle with internal brakes are the ones I look for.

I’m not really sure, probably somewhere in the 30s or 40s. It was my brother’s truck. He took the video.

@karnesmotorsports okay, very cool give me an idea. Thank you so much for the response!

Cool! That will a good one! Message me on Facebook if you have any questions or need some parts. I’ll help you out if I can. Thanks for watching!

@@karnesmotorsports ok tkanks

I did that but I only went halfway up the pedal. I can add a strip to the other side if it’s too floppy. It flexes the aluminum frame of the tractor.

She’s coming along. All it really needed was a motor when I bought it. Getting the little stuff knocked out while waiting for parts. Thanks for watching!

Thanks! Happy 2024 to you as well!

She did that day! She won her class, and took 3rd in the next class up. Yanked it out over 400’ twice. Was a great day! Thanks for watching!

@@karnesmotorsports I'd like to see more videos of that !

I was never a Chevy guy but for a stock 350 with double hump heads and a 500cfm 2 barrel it will make anyone a Chevy guy! Thanks for watching!

She’s figuring it out! It balances out and drives nice and straight. It runs about 15mph give or take. Thanks for watching!

www.zkbrmachine.com makes alot of parts. They make some repower adaptors and the best performance clutch components. I make/modify some stuff myself. Parts are out there. Midwest super cub, Brian’s cub parts also. Thanks for watching.

To line up

Spacers for the hitch? I ended up swapping to a curt class V 2” hitch instead of the stock one. Much heavier duty and better hitch than stock. Thanks for watching!

It’s just metal, it can be fixed. The best part about floor pans is no one can see your welds lol! Get yourself some scraps, and start running some beads. You’ll figure it out. Make sure the metal is clean and shiny. You’ll want to weld in some temporary bracing if you’re cutting the cab mounts out. The good part is they make new ones. Best advice I can give is don’t be afraid to try it yourself, and have fun! This was actually a fun job to do, for some reason I enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!

Great idea! I really want one of the small portable parts washers. Harbor freight used to sell them, but don’t anymore. I have access to a bigger one now. I like the dishwasher idea tho! Thanks for watching!

Good call! I’ve noticed on a couple that I’ve painted that the seam sealer is all cracked out. Never gave it a thought about leaking. Makes sense! This was a farm truck at one point in its life so the cow crap probably didn’t help. All this job was for was to stop the wind blowing in. Thanks for watching!

I love my 029 Super. Great old saw. I have a MS391 I like too. Just something about the old super. Thanks for watching and thanks for subscribing!

You can use a hydro. It won’t work as well as a gear drive. I know a guy that won a championship with a hydro. It was in an 850lb 12hp class. So It can be done but a gear drive would work better. A hydro would be really cool for a small kid that can’t push the clutch pedal so they could run it all by themselves. If you can’t find a gear drive, you could still build the hydro, then swap the rear axle to a gear drive in the future and wouldn’t really be out anything. Thanks for watching!

yes you can, for lower power id recommend a hydro over a manual, turn up the system pressure and shim the linkage and you'll be able to pull just fine.

It was enough to get me hooked! We went from 2 to 7 in a hurry… maybe I’ll have all 7 together at the same time at some point… thanks for watching!

@karnesmotorsports thank you for the posts! We don't have a garden tractor club anywhere in this massive California valley. I know of a sled I verbally owned for about 1hr. Came back with the trailer and owner backed out, since died of overdose and family estate is seized. May build my own sled owning my own fab shop but steel is thru the roof.

@@karnesmotorsports I have about 10-dozen in the barn that would make great builds.

My wife made it.

Cool! Stop over and say hi at the next one! Thanks for watching!

@@karnesmotorsports sorry i cant go to the last one

where do you pull besides patriot

Thanks for watching! Hope it helps!

I believe there’s an allowance for them in our rules. Most everyone uses gear drive cubs or wheel horses.

Thanks! Transmission was slipping, we don’t like to twist her that many, normally 5800-6400 if she’s hooked up and the torque converter isn’t giving up. Not the 7200 it hit at the end of this run!

Hope it helped! Thanks for watching!

Yea it does! Not a big mopar guy, but this little 360 will make anyone a mopar guy! Thanks for watching!

If it’s electric shift it is. Manual shift is a 261.

@@karnesmotorsports yes its eletric shift with the 3 buttons im trying to find a video of it and fix everything in my t-case because its destroyed

Yea Ive still got it. I started to swap a twin in it to pull sport stock, but haven’t finished it. I had to pilfer a bunch of parts from it the other day to keep one the kids going…

@@karnesmotorsports I wanna build one myself. I’ve got a 212 stock but wanna go up a class

Mine was Deere 210 tins on a cub 100 chassis. I’ll get it together one of these days, probably when my oldest is gonna step up. I started building a couple V8 mini rods. I like the cubs and I’m an IH guy, but the Deere’s look better!

They give out the best merch! Thanks for watching!

She might have! The powerglide was slipping. Replaced the band and servo rings, that didn’t help it much. New converter going in. Hopefully that fixes it.

No prob, thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

Careful calling them lawnmowers, them’s fighting words to some guys! Lol! I’m planning on doing a build series on a cub cadet to show everyone how I do it. It’s a lot of fun! Thanks for watching!

@@karnesmotorsports you are very welcome

I have a john Deere 170 I'm gonna build for pulling

@@user-ce6ds3bb8p I’m thinking about building a 110 John Deere for pulling

We pulled with a 1966 JD 110 for years. Stock 8hp kohler and all. Got to up to weight, new JD belts, and some bar tires. Bumped it up to 3600rpm and sent it. Usually ran it in 4th gear. Never once slipped a belt. All 3 of my kids started on it. My brothers kids are running it now. If you look back through some of my videos you’ll see it. It never won, but it didn’t finish last either.

I don’t have part numbers handy, Go check out www.zkbrmachine.com their website is pretty easy to navigate. I got a driveshaft, throw out bearing, a blue spring, and some 5/8” collars. I used the stock replacement clutch disk that was in it. I’ll go check it out and see if I can come up with some numbers for you. We use kerber’s clutches in all our pullers. They’re the absolute best bang for the buck.

Thanks! Thanks for watching!

Thanks! It was a fun project. Just getting it done, not having to worry about it being a concourse restoration job. Thanks for watching!

Lol money pits for sure! I have cub 3 pullers for my kids. Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

@karnesmotorsports actually I was the one with the 7790 diesel at Pike, that's what I'm putting the cub rear in. Ended up having belt slip and it was my weak link so I can't add any power till that's fixed.

@karnesmotorsports you wouldn't have any pressure plates kicking around would you? I'm thinking mine are pretty badly pitted up just from the exterior look, I havnt torn into it yet.

I think 400lbs might be pushing it. You’ll definitely need a bunch of weight on the rear of the tractor. If I have this on my L3560 with no rear weight I can push on it and almost lift the rear of the tractor off the ground. It’s just a piece of 2.5” 1/4” wall tubing. I built it to lift 2x6 rafters and facer boards for the addition on my barn. I would try it and see if it needed some additional bracing. Lots of different ways you could do that. I put a 750lb chunk of steel on the back and that keeps the back wheels on the ground. I used it to move my wife’s raised bed garden probably weighed 250lbs.

Keep fighting with the snap ring until you can get it. Or figure out a way to cut/break the ring. They can be a real bear!!
