Taryl's AMAZING Lawn Mower Tow Vehicle (Part 1)

[@djmhaffa]

Damn you Taryl! Now I have to watch pt.2! I got to go to work and absolutely love your video bud! Keep up the great work guys!

[@scottkirby1044]

Very inventive. Creative. Good lessons.

[@allanhughes7859]

Feels bloody great when ya get something going don't it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@pointbreak8293]

I don’t know what we’d do if Taryl and his crew stopped making videos.. freakin classic... love the ole scags ... 👍👍👍

[@besurviving]

I dont know how many times my wife has rolled her eyes when she heres your videos. My 1 1/2 year old son loves them. He loves trying to help me work on stuff and watching your videos

[@JOEZEP54]

I have not come across one of these mowers. I am a big advocate of using what is on hand, Recycle Reuse Repair Repurpose. Great build by the way. Stay safe, Joe Z

[@patthesoundguy]

I have been planning on putting a hitch tube on the front of an old snowblower to move my trailer and use my snow plow that I have set up with a hitch tube on the tractor so I can pull the pin and put the plow or trailer ball. I came in to grab a bowl gasket and a primer bulb and here I am watching Taryl instead of working... Worth it ;-)

22:48 --Milwaukee cordless ratchet!!! In the last year I bought the 3/8 stubby impact and a 3/8 ratchet. 40 year heavy equipment mechanic... Best tools I ever spent money on and I have bought a lot over the years--old Cat man--Albany Ga.. Taryl--keep those great videos coming...David

[@kenbehl2659]

That gel lube is awesome

[@arnoldschmidt2753]

can't wait for the comedy sketch .Love you Taryl for who you are. Oh 1 more thing I keep forgetting to ask you . Do you ever get any diesel engines in your shop to work on ? Never seen a show but then again I just stumbled on to your channel by mear coincidence about 2 weeks ago .

[@CTmoog]

Awesome build guys! That Kohler sounds sweet!

[@danielfouardlibertarianono8017]

I'm building a similar apparatus for a friend. Mounting it on his John Deere garden tractor for moving trailers around his yard and junk. But I'm using an electric actuator. No hydraulic leaks and plenty of power to lift anything he has. Makes me kinda miss my 93 Super Duty that started life as an ambulance. Just dump the air back under my trailers flip the switch let the airbags fill back up. Flip up the screw jack drop the pin and roll. Love your videos bro funny and educational! GOD bless you and cover you with his eternal love 💘

[@freeamerican2313]

Your the master of mower repair and build great idea.

[@Caleb-yq6yz]

I appreciate you making these videos my 11 year old son is working on a 1990s marrays lawnmower he calls it swamp donkey.

[@codered2224]

Taryl has the coolest lingo. Old school. You're the best

[@grandpajim329]

👍👌 WOW, ,,, Some MIGHTY (COMMON SENSE) engineering there THANKS TARYL for a well entertaining job WELL DONE [so far] 😍😍😍😍😍

[@cdoublejj]

slather them terminals in dielectric grease and snug up the bolts. same for grounding points. that'l slow down the corrosion big time

[@raymondgarafano8604]

Kool Taryl, that Gantry crane, built in America with American colors. Thumbs up!

[@jackcollier929]

At first I could not watch you guys to wacky, but then I was rebuilding a Gx200 and you were doing a Gx160 so I watched and now I can't get enough! Keep'em coming. Fan in Florida.

[@megaglowz8540]

This thing is gonna be handy as hell. Looking forward to the rest of the build!!

[@garrettmeyer6416]

Love your videos. You helped me acquire a Honda Goldwing. I'll tell you the story if I ever meet you. Instead of RV antifreeze, I use the subzero type wiper fluid in the rear lug tires of my Cub Cadet 2186. The wiper fluid is non corrosive. I use it for a rear mount tiller in the summer and snowplow or blower in winter. No chains and no weights to mess with.

[@johnnybx3254]

Nice fun build 👍👏

[@phillipparker8947]

Now that thing is go help you out bunches, nice going Taryl

[@fair2middlin]

Love the Audio Sweetening Team of Mowing

[@luuk-out-below9804]

Nice work Taryl.

[@TheIronDuke502]

Taryl Fixes All. Could you possibly make a video regarding the glass bowl sediment filters like was on the 1946 Orr Brush Cutter and how effective these type filters were compared to the new plastic inline filters. Thanks for all of your great videos.

[@ercly9382]

Great video. Very impressive engineering on the fly. You make it look easy.

[@mattgriffin2880]

Mr T. used the "It Ran;When" line. Love it.

[@t.w.3]

Nice hacks to re-purpose this nice machine. Eagerly awaiting for part 2 (and 3?) of this project.

[@brentsmith5647]

Brilliant video thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@larrycroft470]

Great way to spend a Sunday watching Taryl and his boys !!!

[@henrikjonsson4340]

Thanks for the vid and inspiring. Did a push-tow for my cars years ago to push it in to the garage. Put a car-tire on it worked fine, specially on the winter-time and some uphill. Waiting for part II. :) My friend had a similar mashine except for a steering wheel. His was from the 70´s i think...but his could not bend like your.

[@billrawlins9488]

looking forward to part 2

[@dadefope80]

@22:07 1000% Agree. I was helping a friend with his riding mower that wouldn't start. He had 2 people look at it and they said that he needed a new starter. I took Mr. Test Light and he found the problem; the solenoid wasn't getting juice when key was turned. I noticed that the positive battery terminal had a little corrosion. Sanded both battery terminals and the wire terminal (going to the solenoid) and the mower fired right up.

[@EliminatorPerformance]

That thing is cool, great idea Taryl!

[@patrickmorrissey2271]

@ 6:58 The classic "Ran when parked".... Hahaha!

[@ihus9950]

That tow vehicle was a great idea Taryl, should come in very handy 👍

[@tyzemke4381]

Great job..love your videos

[@TractorHoarders]

Taryl, that worked out pretty nice. Good idea!

[@brucel.6078]

U got mad skillz!!! 🍺🍺

[@barblemons5397]

Doesn’t take much to excite o’’lTarly some days but he knows how to enjoy life have a great day Tarly!

[@rdaw33]

Uncle Andy had me cracking up!!!!....Love the "new" toy, love the Lucille Ball impression going in circles!!!!!!

[@johnsmith-sw7ii]

Pretty cool Taryl!

[@jeeper426]

i'm actually doing something similar with an older john deere garden tractor, great vid Taryl cant wait to see where this sweet build ends up

[@andrewbrooks2644]

Great video can't wait to see the finished product

[@jeremyperala839]

Thanks for the video Taryl. Looking forward to the next one.

[@wildefox1478]

Pretty cool build Taryl, looking forward to part 2!

[@mikekopisz1227]

I've welded quite a few plastic tanks with a soldering iron...I preheat the cracked area with a heat gun,then slightly trench the crack at 60watts pointed tip iron,then go over it @ 100watts with a flat tip,working in a circular motion,then do a final pass,using a nylon zip-tie with the iron still set @ 100watts with a pointed tip again,in the same fashion as TIG or Brazing,So there's no need for epoxy...takes a little time and a ton of patience,but its a hell of a lot better,than replacing a $200+ tank.....I like the wire nut hack too...gonna have to try that out

[@Kyrimfireandhobbies]

Just made a purchase at the online store. Keep up the good content Sir!

[@stokeburner6730]

i LIKE IT! I like it a lot.

[@danielson101]

Hey Taryld .you were talking about vertical mount and horizontal,if could change ? i wonder is oil pump all the same?

[@redneckracers2360]

Great Way To Start The Day.

[@terryedge3423]

If you switch that engine from verticle to horizontal do you have to change anything inside like the oil splasher ??

[@Tech-tipsntricks]

Sweet ! Never seen one of those Scag’s , gotta find one and build for our shop! When you talk about cleaning battery terminals, I remembered that I Had a guy bring a new top post battery back for warranty.....he still had factory plastic caps on posts !!! Whoa brother ! Put terminals on over plastic caps !

[@dannylister558]

Entertaining video..thank you

[@jaryljackderriere1232]

All through the video I was thinking to myself "I'll bet he will be doing donuts out on the gravel lot just like Fast Food" and sure enough. Looks like your push/pull vehicle is working great. I can hardly wait to see the finished product. Nice to see Uncle Andy again.

[@darrannewman7113]

Your right Taryl those bushing's work well , i recently fitted one on a fuel tank from a Koholer magnum 8 engine. trouble was i had to use one from a wacker plant as the alternative was to order from your side of the pond and pay over $30, the one i bought was £1.90 inluding postage.

[@marccurtis3464]

Gotta love how nice those opposed twin Engines run!

[@ericlakota6512]

Works realy good for bumping

[@vincescalise4821]

Fantastic work Taryl , As alwaysWhat a great idea

[@johnnydavenport2015]

Great video ,keep making lawn machines great. Johnny

[@richdiscoveries]

That's pretty good man, nice work!!

[@jerryleejohnsonjr1377]

Love it!!!! fixn stuff and stuff

[@jackolson6479]

Woooo woooo woo woo woo, Taryl you should make TV dinners

[@pulesjet]

Well DAMN, That's going to be handy Slick Sorta Kinda . Boat, Trailer, Maybe even light trucks. I like it.

[@Nunya_Bidnez]

Looks like a good start Taryl. Good job buddy.

[@mikesenginesandadventures]

That’s going to come in handy... nice work. 👍

[@TheIronDuke502]

Taryl Fixes All. The push/tow vehicle that you are repurposing looks very useful. I have some 3 wheeled Yazoo YR-48s and YR-60s around but I’m not sure how the Rockford transmissions would be strong enough like the Scag you have. I was pleased to see that the engine was basically the same as the KT-17 Series 2 that is on my 682 Hydro Cub Cadet. And Yes, The fuel tank on my Cub Cadet has the same tank bushing as yours. The bushing and valve look OEM circa 1982ish - I see absolutely nothing wrong with that. I have a Honda GCV160 tank the Me & My Big Hands pulled on the plastic nipple and “Crack” - The gas was a gushing. Taryl, Recently I heard the term “Sparking Points” that made me do the proverbial head scratching. I was trying to figure out why my Kohler K-241 on a 107 IH Cub Cadet starts normality and after running for a short while seems to get very very hot and evacuates way more engine vapors from the side engine vent than normal. Some say that my governor is broken internally or maybe something as simple as replacement of the points/condenser. The engine does not race at a high rate of speed and appears to start and run as it had for several years with the exception of the overheating. I may try swapping out the carburetor just in case the needle valve may be sticking. Yes, It is the original OEM carburetor - It’s old like me. Best Regards From Central Kentucky.

[@frankr.1594]

Nice, No more back pain! To late for uncle Andy. Thx dactyl team!

[@mikeanthony3986]

Smart idea, great video,

[@williamarner4637]

Can't wait for part 2!

[@italia11113]

Awesome videos thank you I learned so much from you

[@chriswagner6310]

Very good my friends

[@ginaboos9563]

taryl today i was cutin lawns. all of a sudden in the middle of a job fuel started dumpin outa carb. knew it was seat ran to get rebuild kit. they had none. i used your trick to heat the float tab and bend just a bit. the seat was fine float was not pushing all the way to stop fuel. anyway thanks very much...

[@jasonkime896]

Seeing this old Scag 3 wheel mower brings back memories of using one (with a deck) at my job back in the early 90’s. They were fun to operate. Way to repurpose it!

[@hudsonriley2094]

Another great episode and what will be a nice tomower. Just curious though how will you prevent damaging the free wheel lever on the rear,when pushing one?

[@gordbaker896]

Great idea. You still need to put some Diagonal Bracing on that Portable Hoist.

[@martihenderson4024]

Leave the wheel in place with a longer bolt through the center. You’ll be able to push or pull without having to get off and change the setup. Love your videos. I alway thumbs up before I watch it.

[@johnzudans7724]

Do you think that a treadmill elevator would also work as an elevator for your tractor pull? I have taken a number of elevators from trashed treadmills and was wondering what I could do with them. I think they are dc and 12 volts. I think your design is better, but I was wondering what you thought. Love the idea.

[@huntnfishnuts5880]

Tow mater sure can do donuts 🍩👍 great build.

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Nice setup

[@michaeljessie1853]

Great idea for a tow tractor it will be very useful and save time to get mowers in an out of the shop that not in running order.

[@renebourbeau1671]

Good job,that is a grate tool real time saver,now you need a name for it contest lol

[@CatsNChickens]

Sounds like you got a bunch of starlings nesting. I get them above the sliding doors on my barn. Cute, but thank god they only next for a couple weeks.

[@tomclark3592]

The man is a genious!

[@paulwillard5924]

Never-Seize was one of the tricks I learned when working on cars with aluminum heads. Occasionally the spark plugs would seize in the cylinder heads and take the threads right out with the plugs… no bueno!

[@JD940]

Awsome channel u have here.. tough i got a issue whit to b&s engines one is a 8hp the other a 11 hp both same issue. When the spark plug is connected the starter turns a little then it all stops almost as if thers somting bad inside going on.. and its not the issue off starter got 2 for testing, also good battery and cables (100ah battery new) just took off the toop too see if ther g or build up but nada cylinder looking good, next i ges look in crankshaft area, but any sugestions? Turns nice whit no splug

[@michaelglynn2638]

That's a great machine and a fun build! Good to know uncle Andy didn't spill his beer😆

[@mowermedic]

I have to build one! tired of pushing tractors here at work! Especially Scrub Cadets!

[@LanceGoodthrust_]

Hell Yeah, I'm watching that Hill Billy. Keep it up, love the content.

[@truthhunter5195]

pretty cool wondering if I could use that Contraption to power my wheelbarrow

[@hunter7476]

first excellent job this is epic thanks buddy

[@tubeDude48]

You smart Dude!

[@irvinslagter8298]

I repair plastic John Deere hoods with fibreglass cloth and resin and I sandblast my plastic before I apply it. It really holds that way.

[@paulg444]

fantastic, .. only weakness is that everything hinges on those two small bolts and flat stock. Id beef those up or add a third.

[@4spdlife857]

Yep I had to replace the fuel tank on my dads tall hood lt1000 and it had the same grommet and even the one from 95 didn't leak it actually lasted longer than the tank seam lol

[@notajp]

Got the remains of an old Yazoo three wheeler sitting over the hill. Also got a couple of opposed twin 18 HP Briggs sitting in the shop. May have to try to build something like this to move mowers in and out of the shop. Would be easier than messing with skid loader with the forks......

[@DeadKoby]

The Kohler 20HP Command engine was on one of my old mowers. The engine long survived the rest of the mower (that wore out).

[@michaelking3327]

except that's a magnum engine. he says that in the video

[@CopeML]

Add a V Notch to a receiver hitch so you can pick from underneath the front axle, useful if you have a front flat or no one to drive.

[@tdogj2084]

My horizontal m20 kohler blew up so i bought a vertical block drilled out the spots on the casting for dip stick ,oil pump pick up tube and drain plug and turned it from a MV20 into a M20!
