Re: IH 9600 Trailer Toter
Cool build Paul. I think it looks just right. I used to see a lot of these cruising around in my neck of the woods. I'm located between a few modular home builders, and they used to drive past a lot, pulling half a house, but I have not seen any for a long time now. Anyway, it's looking really good. I think the body in back of the cab looks especially nice.

Re: IH 9670 Trailer Toter
Ok I got some of the trim work done today you can see here
Before After..Now it matches the bottom of the cab I also trimmed it out around the top of the sides edge. Also I copyed the way the mirrors were mounted in a pick of a real one and I made them out of brass and they slide out to a width of 16 inches.. In.. Out.. Now I was working on the lift hitch for the back tonight BUT I burnt up my old Dremel cutting some Alum so I am stopped for the night till I get a new one tomorrow but I plan on having the lift hitch done this weekend..

Re: IH 9670 Trailer Toter
Looks good Paul , don't give up on the dremel I did that a couple times . pull the brushes make sure they slide . mine gets stuck when it gets hot . sometimes you have to pull it apart and clean the ( don't know the part name) section where the brushes are so it's a nice shinny copper again .

Re: IH 9670 Trailer Toter
Paul if it's all right - I'm gonna have to sue your mirror mount idea - Ive tried to solder my mirror brackets to the tube twice and broke every time.....nice engineering!
Overall looks really good - I'll have a nice suprise for you come St. Louis! |

Re: IH 9670 Trailer Toter
I got most of the Jack made tonight for the back of the truck.. It will be able to lift around 4 inches or better high. It is built out of alum and then has a derlin shim on the inside so it slides freely up and down. I will have a spring pulling down and use a winch hid under the be to pull up one the sled the hitch is hooked too. So here is what i have..

Re: IH 9670 Trailer Toter
I agree with Freddy but I forsee a problem. You might want to make the moveable hitch piece out of delrin instead of just a shim. Any type of pressure on it with metal to metal contact will cause it to bind.
Oh ya, where is the side to side movement mechanism? Ones I looked at had this plus in and out controls. |

Re: IH 9670 Trailer Toter
Lynn there is no metal to metal the alum slides in derlin..and I am not doing the side to side no all of them have that and some don't even have the lift!
