Re: Everyone sould have a 100....
Craig, It has lived within 20 miles of where the IH plant was, all of it's life. Now it lives about half that distance from where the IH plant was, and the selling dealer was less than 5 miles from the IH plant, but the plant and selling dealer no longer exist.

Re: Everyone sould have a 100....
I have owned several 70/100's over the years, and some of them were custom's (Orchard, High clear, cultivision, etc) and always said I would always have a 100 or if I didn't I knew where one was for sale. When I sold the last one I had, the one I knew of for sale at that time turned out the owner th...

Everyone sould have a 100....
This one got in my truck yesterday. Was built in June 1964, and was bought new and owned by the same family until I bought it. The second seat was to give grandchildren a ride (not while mowing I hope)

Re: Cub hauling trailer
Cal, I do not have a powder coated trailer, but have other stuff that is powder coated, and I don't like it. The powder coated stuff will scratch and chip, specially on something like a trailer (or newer model Cub Cadet and decks) that can get some heavy use. IMO it is easier to touch up a painted s...

CCC built 782 driveline picture
Can someone post a good clear picture (from the top with the tunnel cover off) of the rear rag joint and bolts of the driveshaft couplings on 782 (CCC built 1984 if it makes a difference). I bought one of these (should have stayed with the IH narrow frame models) and the rear rag joints were missing...

Merk The 6.0 is only available in the 2500 and 3500 trucks, and is the only gas engine available in them. This one is a 2015, 1500 LTZ and has a 5.3L engine. There is a 6.2L available in certain 1500 models, but it requires 91 octane or higher gas, according to the owners manual. Buying one at the e...

Re: Up a creek without a paddle & Tiffen finds .
Thank you Cal.
Don't know how it's going to be hauling a trailer around. It has a "Max Towing" package, but just a 5.3L engine rather than the 6.2L (that requires 91 plus octane gas). It's rated to tow 11K with the 5.3 and 3.73 gears (that may be down hill or on flat ground) We'll see.

Re: Refresh my mind please
Vince At half throttle, voltage should be 13 to 14.5 volts. If it is 12.5 or less ground the F terminal and if the voltage goes up the problem is probably the regulator. A good trouble shooting guide can be found here on the Simplicity/ AC site. http://www.simpletractors.com/service/electrics/starte...

You can't find a GOOD one
I shouldn't say that, everyone has their own idea about which is best, even the Cummins fan that will swear he didn't buy a Dodge, but bought a Cummins and the Dodge came with it. Enough said.

I bought a new XT3 GS and it does not have a locking differential, nor does the XT3 GSE, according to the XT brochure, but the XT2 LX46 fabricated deck and the XT2 LX54 fabricated deck has an auto locking diff, and the XT3 GSX has a manual locking diff.
