Thanks lads.I was hoping once I get this clutch back together that I would begin to rewire then rebuild.......just spotted that where the front axle is bolted on is completly corroded....barely hanging on:(.Continue strippin i guess.I'm going to know every bolt on this little beast.

I think so, it was 20 years ago when I last drove this tractor.I do remember that when I pressed the clutch it operated the brake as well.So it used to be a "hold on tight moment" at take off in 5th gear.Maybe the brake and clutch pedals were seized on their common shaft even back then. I think...

Hi all, I'm battling away with my little B5100E. Found the clutch seized when I came to starting her up.I striped her down to look at what was wrong.The main reason for my sticking clutch problem was rust but there is also severe wear on the clutch release levers ,see the 3rd pic one of the...

Alright boys,I'm back in the game again.Built a garage to house my little shiny tractor so there's no stopping me now.I have continued with my drive to spend as little as possible to get this thing back in the field.....Mean Jean gave me a great idea on how to replace my shot rear wheels,painted...

Mean Jean's idea is really neat.So I went with it.I drilled a plate and welded it onto a 15" rim.Rolled on my lawn tyres ,just need some orange pain now.total cost 15 euro well chuffed. tnx mean jean My other option was to use a set of Nissan Navarra's alloy wheel,the pcd is almost the same...I...

Wildfire,I'm humbled that you you have enjoyed the post.Its because of you and the likes of you on this website that I have attempted this project.I was making so much progress up till monsoon season!!!!.Its depressing looking out at my stainless project turning greeen with mould.I have landed...

Thanks Aardvark,I got the bonnet almost finished I put 100mm holes in for the lights,my thinking was that that was a standard size.Guess when i go to buy lights I'll find out.I might take you up on that offer for a few pics of your B51.But for now I'm still waiting for it to stop raining here.In...

Thanks guys,glad ye like it.If it ever stopped raining here i might get out to finish mounting the bonnet.I have rev 1 nearly complete ill put up pics in a few days.

Got this far on the bonnet.Think I'm going to keep it as simple as I can first.I can always add detail at a later stage.Any ideas welcome!!

Nice job,there is great light given off by those LED's

Started on the bonnet today.Not quite sure how its going to turn out.I know I'll get it to fit and function but its whether it just looks ridiculous is my concern .With each man hour that goes into this thing the more I think I must have a screw loose.My wife see's me on the computer every night...

more pics of progress so far.

Rear brackets off 3 point linkage.I shoved all the bits on to whats left of my tractor to see how it looks.I still have a long way to go but its looking a small bit better.

No its not a klingon bird of prey its my new bracket for my seat

My new handles!!!Bending 20mm stainless bar was going to be hard and very heavy so I cheated and bought some aluminium bar, it bent like butter when I heated it and whats more it looks just like stainless.

Yeah,it was practically in the salt water.It lived about 100 metres from the shore and for the last 8 yrs it was parked in 3ft grass.The fact that it was never garaged didn't help either.TLC was not something this little tractor ever saw.just spotted today that the sump pan is completely...

some more pics...they need to be tidied up and supported but they fit fine.

Hydaullic pipes got an upgrade...Cut the old fiitings off the pipe and welded them to a crimpable fitting.To be fair to my task I did try them in SS but its a curse to bend so rubber will be just fine.

Ive just got some plate for the hood and am looking at making my own exhaust muffler any tips or hints very welcome,without either of the originals to follow its going to be a suck it and see approach..

Air filter housing...Missing the end cover and intake cap to begin with so I used my imagination as to how it should look.Can anyone tell me is there a gauze in the intake cover or is it just a cover to stop rain and dirt landing in.
