Re: 3240 won't go in reverse?

Sounds like you found the problem! :beer: Oh, I forgot to post back, LOL! Yep, that fixed it! I cleaned up my hex flange thingys and got the shaft assembly super smooth again and everything worked as it should. Put everything back in and it all worked! Need to adjust some linkages and then get the ...

Re: New guy from Alabama with a two 3240's!

Jason Were those on eBay and Craigslist for a long time? 2k for both? If I was 1000 miles closer I'd be after those! Seems you got a good deal there..... welcome! He had them on ebay for $2000 for both. His Craigslist ad said 2 3240 Cubs $1000. He was a bit of a jerk. I text him and asked if that w...

Re: 3240 won't go in reverse?

I'm not sure if this will fix my problem, but I was in the garage for a while earlier and kept trying to figure out why everything was working, WITHOUT being hooked up to the pedal linkages and it finally hit me! The big hex head flange head thingys that go through the frame, that hold the Pedal Sha...

Re: 3240 won't go in reverse?

Yep, just checked, the reverse pedal comes up, when the forward pedal go down, but not vice versa???? I adjusted the linkage and have plenty of forward pedal, but ZERO reverse. I don't know WTF is wrong here?!?!

3240 won't go in reverse?

Oak told me that my problem may be the plastic washers, but I'm not sure that's the problem, so I thought I'd ask on this forum. Before tearing down my mowers, one of the 3240's went in reverse, but super, super, super slow. The reverse pedal is hard, it doesn't move any of the linkages! Forward mov...

Re: THE 3240 thread

I would gladly pay for them, if you were to get them done. There's only a few places around here that do that sort of thing and they aren't cheap... If Cub still sold them, they'd be cheaper than these places! If you don't wanna mess with them, it's ok, I'll figure out something. Thanks

Re: THE 3240 thread

At some point I'm gonna peal all the decals off of one of mine and have my buddy reproduce all of them. Hey BB, I'm new, but Oak told me about this site. I'm from mytractorforum and looking for the 40th Anniversary decals and was told you're the man to ask. Hood, side panel or rear fender decals le...

New guy from Alabama with a two 3240's!

My name's Jason, live in Alabama and I recently bought 2 running 3240's from a fella off Craigslist. Long story short, tore one completely down, (engine smokes and the 54" deck was in pretty bad shape). The other one I'm going to restore and either keep and use or possibly sell. Oak told me about th...
