Re: 125 hydro not working.
I am in the process of restoring a 125. This is my first tractor and hydro so please go easy on me! I have everything torn apart as far as I want to, meaning I don't want to mess with the hydro at all if I don't have to. It ran when I got it, but I immediately began dis-assembly so I didn't get a re...

Re: Forward/Reverse lever

125 Front Axle and PTO questions
Okay, I am finally making some serious dis-assembly progress on my 125. But I can't figure out how to get the front control arm or axle or whatever you want to call it off. Basically I need to remove #1 so I can get # 2 off in the picture below. It seems like a roll pin but I tapped away at it for a...

Steering Wheel Puller
I devised a cheap way to pull my steering wheel and figured I would share it. Assuming you already have a 3 jaw gear puller, this will be under $5. I bought 3 small clevis pipe clamps from Lowe's and used the lower part to wrap around the spokes of the wheel, then just bolted those in place of the a...

Re: Forward/Reverse lever
It took me about 6 months (of course not working on it the whole time), a dremel, a hacksaw, a few screwdrivers, a drill, a chisel, 2 size hammers but I finally got mine off last night! And I got lucky and didn't hit the shaft, bonus!

125 Speed Control Lever & Generator Questions
Hello, this is my first Cub, or Cadet, I don't know the lingo yet, so please bear with me! It's actually my first tractor. I have always wanted to restore a car but can't afford that yet, and I came across this 125 that runs (er ran when I bought it) with little rust, mower deck, snow plow, and trai...
