Here's where you can post your Cub Cadet based specials. Actually, if it's cool and not Cub based, post it anyway!

Thanks Paul. This one was a lot of fun. I just got off the phone with the new owner, he was very happy with it. The only thing left of the 1811 is the drive line, steering column and pedestal, and the tunnel cover over the drive shaft.

Kurt Very Nice .

What did you do with the remote oil lines for the oil filter on the Kohler Magnum 18 ?
I can see the two oil line holes in the engine sheet metal in the middle picture .
I see a lot of cub cadets while going down the tracks , its a shame I can't pull over and ask about them .

Jess, I used standard 1/4" hydrolic hose. I took the engine and filter to the hose place, and had them made to fit.
