Re: My 106 Refurb/Mod
Dave, Yes I did move the axle forward. Yes, this project was somewhat "involved".

Re: My 106 Refurb/Mod
Thanks, Guys for all the cool comments. Jlaws,The rear fenders are from an old Bolens 800. I added a filler panel on the bottom so that I could bolt them to the axles. PGHsteelworker, The rear rims are modiied. They are I think from an early Dodge Caravan 14x6. The bolt pattern was cut out and rever...

Re: My Cub Cadet 100 Build/Mod
Thanks,gentlemen for the nice comments. Mr.Paul,you are correct,I used a wide frame front axle and modified the spindles to give me the 2" lift I needed to compensate for the 27x7.5x12 rear tires on 12 x 7 rims (wheel horse style with more offset).The tires are Interco Interforce ATV tires .The tall...

Re: Balance gears?
F.Watson, #1. I suppose the balance gears were intended to reduce vibration in the single cylinder engine. #2.Your engine more than likely does not have balance gears. I have read that most aqs engines in the quietline series did not have balance gears. Do a search on this site for balance gears,you...

Re: Correct width front rims for a 100?
Thanks TIM DeLooza.That is good info. In that picture,the front tires still look like the narrow 4.80/4.00x8,,,,,they have the diamond studs on the outside and 4 ribs in the center just like the 4.80/4.00x8.Was the "wide traction tires" option just wider rears or were the front rims wider too?

Re: help! I have carburetor problems
I got my 128 running good and it is finished (refurbished) and ready to use. I got a #26 carburetor from Ray,took it apart and cleaned it up.It needed a new needle valve,float,bowl and gaskets. Backed out the high speed jet 2 turns,and the low speed jet out 1-1/2 turns.Started it up and it runs perf...

Correct width front rims for a 100?
Did a 1964 Cub Cadet come equiped with narrow front rims,or were they available with either narrow or wide front rims? I have a 1964 100,and it has wide front rims.If it came out with narrow rims,I want to put narrow rims back on it. Thanks

Re: Balance gears?
I got this K301 in the 128 back together and running.I am glad I took out the balance gears,now I won't have to worry. It runs pretty smooth,not much vibration at all.Just a bit more than the 10 hp in my 100's. Not anywhere near as much vibration as the K321 in my 1450.But that's a whole 'nuther sub...

Re: help! I have carburetor problems
The carburetor is definitely the culprit.I put another carb on it off another tractor and it ran fine. So,I soaked the carb for 2 days in carb cleaner and put it back on.Same problems.I don't know what else to do to it,so I ordered another carb from Ray.

Has anyone put an AQS in a solid mount frame such as a 149?
I would like to know if anyone has tried putting an AQS engine out of a quiet line into a solid mount frame, such as a K321AQS into a 149 frame . And did it vibrate more than or less than it did when iso mounted in the quietline frame? Concerning the AQS engines,does the engine itself vibrate more t...

Balance gears?
I was replacing an aluminum oil pan that was leaking with a cast iron one on a K301 on a 128 and I noticed it had balance gears.They seem pretty loose on the shaft. Should I remove them,and is it possible to do so without removing the crankshaft?
Thanks
Thanks

Here is a picture of another Cub Cadet I just "refurbished" mechanically. As you can see,it is a "hybrid". I don't plan to paint this one,as you can see it is a "work tractor".It runs and operates just great,but it is a little rough.I sanded the rust and sprayed clear over it to protect it.It looks ...
