If you want parts, Spindles etc let me
Know I can flat rate them up. Nice job on the blades. I prefer to use the chop saw then sharpen and balance.

Ken
Looking good!
I’ve done the same with blades, new sure to balance them after you trim them down, they can be out if you don’t cut perfect!

Yes, all the spindles from the 38/42/44/50 will interchange! In some cases you need to add or remove washers to get the blade heights correct. I recommend using the older cast iron type over the newer cast aluminum. Personally I would never rebuild a stamped steel spindle like you have pictured. I R...

Ken
Make that a permanent swap! Those spindles are pricey new and can’t be rebuilt, the older decks with cast iron spindles are the way to go as a direct replacement. I saw your son briefly but missed you. I hope all is well!

Someone is still using galvanized buckets! It seams most here are using lines back to a larger barrel. If it’s a single remote tree, then new TSC food grade buckets seam to be the norm.

Tom Thanks for the move! Yes, you are correct, the driveshaft would need to move with the engine. Each of the 3 engines used a different driveshaft. It also should be noted that the these engines where used in generators, both large mobile and smaller whole house generators be sure to watch your cra...

Welcome! First this post kinda needs to be in the CCC/MTD area, I would move it but I’m at work poor cell service etc etc etc. I’ll do my best to answer… I don’t have the MTD codes memorized, but the Briggs was made 92(year)05(month)08(day) so it was made may 8th 1992 witch is about right for a 1440...

Ken
Hope things warm up before the wind!

Nothing but rain and 35 ish here.

Merry Christmas all!

Snow

Try tonight ! 3-5 here, coming down at a good clip right now. Good news is the plow is on the truck and a trusty 123 plus the wood is dry and burning good! Bad news is the heater core went on the truck and I’ve yet to replace it. Look term forecast looks like I will be taking Friday off to play in t...

I’ve made harness from 14 gauge I believe the factory used 16 gauge. Battery cables would be thicker, think 6 or 8 gauge. If you have nothing, it might just be easier to buy a complete harness. Last I looked they where between 50-100$

Dave I can’t help sorry. If it’s a Schindler product Lilly a 330a hydro it’s a POS tin foil rails stamped steel, they are NOT straight. There are no roller guides, plastic shoes, built into the stile. Sooo as the rail is not straight the cab moves with the twisted rail and sounds like it’s coming ap...

Just an idea, why not put a brinly hitch on the front instead? Use the tractor to raise and lower as needed? I would guess it would work best on a tractor with hydro lift though.

Snow is coming! Although with 75 today and 65 at 9pm not anytime soon! I’m just hoping that it’s not to cold and oil prices don’t end up double what they are now! We are going to wood this winter, first time in the house. I’m hoping that the cute wood stove that came with the house has enough in it ...

AW lives fairly close to Toledo, but he is to busy to post, I would think he would be to busy to turn wrenches!

Dave
I’m in CT we don’t have grain elevators!

I’m with Schindler, 16 years now….

Ken
I did not spend long, but I believe that it’s just NLA from cub, they appear to be available from the main Kohler distributors on line. Now they all might be working of old stock, or I may be completely off base!

Per the usual I’m speechless to your work! Keep up the posts because I am reading!

Looks good, hopefully your 3 months early!

Slow to catch up here this week… looks a lot better then it did Saturday!

Nice work!
I’m not sure who made them but I’ve had two of the same thing, steel frame and a Jackson mortar tub instead of the plywood… I guess great minds think alike!

Ken
The cool part about w/f tractors is that you can do the pto after. No need to install the grill/hood. All of those parts are not really needed for testing. Just be aware, the grill is cast iron for a reason!

Ken the pto kit is different (mike has them) use the WF triangle spring double them up. You may also have 1 or 2 neutral start switches, one for the clutch and one for the pto. Pto switch was a later s/n thing too.

Pto brakes where later s/n tractors only. IMHO they are more trouble than they are worth. Rebuild the original pto and don’t try to convert. Hood hinge is a piano hinge they often fail. Last I checked they could be bought new reasonably, but that was a few years ago, I wouldn’t doubt that they have ...

Ken
You will find the 128 is very similar to the narrow frames, just a bit more access! Zagray is only a few weeks away, you should make the trip south for parts… put a list together and mike and I can set you straight!

Looks good!
How fast does it run through gas? 7hp tank 14hp engine….

Sorry i was out of town for a couple days..:

The black knob is the height of cut stopper.
Posi lock is a small foot pedal to the far left front of the left foot rest. It is a clean tractor and should serve someone well for years to come!

Good tractor! It should not have diff. Lock, maybe the tin work was changed? Your link does not bring to a add, just the craigslist page for cub cadets. Nothing interchanges with your other cubs, it’s a complete re-design. Not a bad tractor if it has options keep it under 3k, if you have 5 already m...

Those are different tractors/decks
You would need another deck off a 2000 series.
