109 revival
It has begun. Pulled front wheels off 109 today with a hammer one wheel is junk. See pic of what fix a flat does to your wheels. Had a spare front wheel in bone yard and a set of rears ready to go so at least I will have it rolling. Attached before and after pics of front wheel restoration. Spindles are good just need some new front rubber.

Ya a little grizzly sandblasted. Works surprisingly well. My buddy needed a place to put it so I said oh I guess you can store it here

Re: 109 revival
Got the 109 fired up today. Runs great. No smoke and nice and smooth. Going to need a carb kit points and general tune up but so far so good. I see it has the same tires on it as my 1450, is that a problem? According to tractor data it is supposed to have smaller tires on it. I searched forum but didn't see any info on the tire size for 109. I hope not to have to buy a whole set of tires

Re: 109 revival
Idk what the specs were but pretty sure every 109 I have seen have the same as the 1450.

Re: 109 revival
Ok I'm going with that since that's what I have. Will the 44c deck off a dead 1250 work on this 109 I hope? Rebuilt the deck a few years back and have hardly used it. Thanks for the reply dag

Re: 109 revival
If your deck was on a 1250 then it should be a 44A. The C decks had a 5/8" top pulley and were used on the 82 series tractors. Or someone could have changed out the pulley. If the top pulley is 3/8" the it will work on the 109.

Re: 109 revival
I'll check that deck number Tomorrow to be sure. I have run it on my 1450. I found an operator manual for the 109 it lists 38, 42 and 48inch "center mount deck" which shows the drive pulley in the center of deck. I know the 44 I have is off-set. Also found some tire size data. It lists 4.80/400-8 for the 86 through 129 with "other tire sizes available" I will assume that is the 16x6.50-8 listed for the 149. I have attached a photo of the rear tire options listed in the manual for 86 108 and 109

Re: 109 revival
Decks and tires of all sizes will interchange from the 1450/1250/109 some of the newer 1250/1450's had 1" front spindles these rims won't swap over with out tanking the steering spindles too. Decks require the sub-frame that came with the deck.

Re: 109 revival
If you used it on the 1450 it should work on the 109.

Re: 109 revival
Ok then it sounds like I have what I need. I think it is a 44A. I can't reed the model number on the 44 deck. But it has the same size pulley as my 50A deck. Things are coming together. hope to mow with it in a couple weeks as long as the hydro checks out. Waiting on a few parts. Having a free 1250 for parts has been invaluable
Thanks for the replies

Re: 109 revival
Rebuilt carb, installed new points, tires and wheels only to find a pretty good oil leak from lower rear blower housing. Rear main seal I'm guessing? Looks easier to remove engine than the QL or SGT at least
