    yes 1100x20 are on the Green Ty but just no room for the tire chain between the tire and spring. it hard to say the bushing on the rearend might be worn out causing the rearend to be moving. or I have too big of tire chains. thansk

    we decided to put the fenders back on the Green Toy for the winter since the money tree did not blossom so we could buy more parts. we heated the shop with the dead money tree so it saved us money on hydro for heat. the truck looks different with the fenders on but now the block heater on the...

    today at +5c i had to use the Green Toy to lift up a lombard sleigh bunk to make it level so i could weld with big rods. the Gods of Gravity make it hard to do up hand welds so it was easier to make it flat. the Green Toy fired right up and preformed well today. thansk

    the work bench came form the mine when they were mining up here. it is heavy and I move it around with the fork lift. the Green Toy was half stripped and butchered when I got it so I started over with a spool of black wire being colour blind. I keep the wiring simple like on sesame street. 12...

    it took almost 2 months to get all the parts to the end of the world. all I wanted to do was change out the alt for a 12v not the 28v. to change the alt I needed to change the belts and if i'm removing one belt I better change them all. to tighten the water pump belt the water pump on a 855...
