I have also enjoyed following your progress. Your attention to detail and skill level is quite impressive, far beyond my abilities, but fun to see a master at work!

Keep them coming and best of luck,

David

I guess that would work better than bungee cords...

Looks similar to one I talked my dad into buying in the early 70's, it was the cheapest priced one available, I think it was a Huffy. 5 hp, single forward/reverse solid tires. You moved shims on the engine shaft, on top of, or under the blade to adjust the height on it. I found a 3 speed gear box.. ...

Grandson, Logan on my "worker" O with #1 trailer.

They are unique and pricey, I believe someone was making them (parts by Jeff but I didn't see it listed in his thread?), Cub Cadet Specialties has one http://ccspecialties.org/steering_seats.html

Good luck,

David

I believe you will need to remove the reduction gear housing, unbolt the forks and slide the rods back (comes out where the reduction housing bolts up), slide the rods slowly, there is a poppet ball with a spring under it, be careful, it will fly out if you don't put your finger over it. The service...

Good save, sometimes you got to get while the gettin's good!

Now that's COOL!

I googled it and all that comes up is snow removal services I found several hits on the company... https://books.google.com/books?id=qAQ2AQAAIAAJ&pg=PA228&lpg=PA228&dq=Parker+plow+company&source=bl&ots=AQzQQwp5_l&sig=IQ0nEHSJmepjYJfgyRTH-39hXrs&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CC4Q6AEwBjgKahUKEwjtsu6TlYTGAhVEn4AKHQ...

Neat find, I love scavenging (with permission), funny what people don't want.

If you Google Parker Plow Co. you will find several useful links, I have one of those wrenches as well.

If you are talking about part #12: http://www.partstree.com/parts/cub-cadet/mowers-lawn-garden-tractor/70-cub-cadet-garden-tractor/clutch/ It has a convex or rounded end that mates and centers it on the concave part of the release lever. I would fork out the $4 for the right one.. ;) Good luck, David

Dave I looked at that site and seen everything but the Nut that holds the wheel (no pun intended), where did you come up with that info? Another guy thinks it's a 5/8 X 20 Jack, The "attaching" hardware is often listed under the part if it isn't specifically identified (Part #1 is the steering whee...

The nut is a 5/8-18 C-Z Low Crown according to the parts diagram, I thought it was a cap nut.

Here is one resource for parts diagrams:

If you want a correct answer to your question, you get it here. FB maybe not. BINGO! I look at a couple FB sites and cringe at some of the replies to questions, far more "how I did it" than "how it should be done (correctly)". I have recognized several reputable people trying to help people, to jus...

The spring assist bracket mounts under the frame, so yours needs to be fixed.then you can mount the light correctly. Humm... I guess I missed something, I am not understanding where under the frame you mean, isn't there is a welded nut on the underside of frame for the bolt that holds the bracket o...

There should already be a hole for the rear light, left side of the removable seat support assembly. Don't recall the size, I picked up the grommet at an auto parts store, but the grommet needs to accomodate the thicker support assembly.

Since you mentioned seats, I have a question about the hard rubber seat. Last week I picked up a 100 that had that style seat and fenders on it. I didn't think it was correct and he gave me the old pan seat as well. My question is were those seats and fenders optional on the 100 or did someone just...

Rick, I see you went big, got 3 to start with, I like your style! ;) I have 5 or so Originals, learning as I fiddle with them, only a mile from you if you need anything. As mentioned there are other members around, Calvin Woodrey just up the road in Trenton, to name one. It should be a fun project w...

Geezer,

Thanks for taking time to arrange a "visit" for those of us that were not able to attend, I appreciate your efforts! It looks like it was a great time!

Thanks for sharing,

Outstanding Job!

Cub Cadet dealer or IH dealers should have the rear gasket or many places on line, all IH gear drive gaskets are the same. http://hamiltonbobs.com/cart/index.php?route=product/product&search=&category_id=63&model=4&manufacturer=13&product_id=5534 http://www.cubcadetpartsnmore.com/m5/IH-350837-R3--ga...

Danni, I know nothing about the big boy you are working on, I am a simple, narrow frame kind of guy, but I must say, I admire your spunk and drive, you are an inspiration for sure! I wish I was closer, I would gladly give it a try at helping you! Hang in there, help will be along to aid in your ques...

Well, you apparently have one of the best things going for you, a big workshop! The work I have done on Cub Cadets so far haven't required any real specific tools, but the more in depth you go, the more you may need. I had a pretty extensive tool box to begin with, but it is always fun to add to it!...

Don't do that, we have all been there, that is how you learn (and others likely learn from the posts)!

Keep at it, you will get it!

The punches have a "nipple" on the end, it compresses the center of the spiral pin, releasing tension. Just use the 3/16" punch and drive it all the way out (the shaft of the punch will go in the hole as the pin is removed).

Good luck,

David

The pin should be 3/16 X 1 1/4" and a roll pin punch has made removing them easier for me. For $20 at a bigger Sears store you can pick up a set, or order on line and pick up in a store: http://www.sears.com/craftsman-6-pc-roll-pin-punch-set/p-00943167000P?prdNo=2&blockNo=2&blockType=G2 Be sure to g...

I noticed we had kind of hijacked a "Wantin' & Lookin'" thread so will start a new one..... Geezer posted a drawing for some 6X12 spacers so I measured mine... well Terry's were wider, mine are narrower... just over 6 1/2" outside to outside and are not made of 3/8", but just over 3/16", so I am won...

I hit "View new posts" most every time I log in to see what is going on, so I see all of them anyway. Some are of interest that I might not have seen if I went to the individual forums. I guess keeping separate would narrow down the hits when searching specific forums, but then it may offer addition...

I have seen a few posts on various forums on conversions, but are IH narrow frames (at least the ones that interested me and I remembered :) ).
