Today's episode of Methed

[Absolution]

A friend brought this by for me to work on. He got a hell of a deal on it and it does run great the feed looks good.



But here we gooooo. I straight was like what in Meth head Aspen part timer is this.
Atleast the welds look horrible and it shouldn't take much to remove.

This is broke. Probably did those horrible welds to keep it engaged. But of course it's already broke them.

Going to have to take the chute off. I'm pretty sure they were using some heavy grease and it set up it's a pain to move even with a wrench.


Here's the glorious spot.
The inspection port.

I forgot to take photos of today.

Got the inspection plate cut off with a torch, tand ended up just welding the handle onto the nut for chute. Both splines on the parts were destroyed and unlike the last welder I can actually hold a bead that won't crack.
