    IH Cub Cadet 107 "build"

    Keep your eyes open for original 26 pound IH wheel weights; about $150 for a pair. I have one inside and two outside each rear wheel.

    IH Cub Cadet 107 "build"

    Looks like you already know what you are doing so I just want to encourage you to do it right the first time, and to buy original parts. In my haste I have skipped important frame work, parts, and painting on more than one rebuild. I now have at least two CC’s that are complete rebuilds but one...

    Thanks all for the creeper advice. Marty, thats the part I need to replace. I could have used Charlie’s last advice a week earlier...so I’ll plan to buy extra o-rings just in case. I need to check on the oil, but I’ll search the forums rather then start that topic again!

    Charlie, thanks for the advice on the creeper yoke, it worked like a charm. However, I could use a better set of punch pins, any suggestions? Oh, does CCS have complete sets of o-rings or a complete rebuild kit for these? Finally, perhaps you could help identify this spring, the plastic...

    Howdy all, how do I remove the yoke from this creeper gear?

    The handle on the kerosene plastic jug broke when I tried to lift it, full. It dropped only inches but still cracked which caused a slow leak along the seam. It would have been much worse if this happened 4 feet off the ground at the retailer or at home. It was a great price at the local flea...

    Steve, thanks for the feedback. I'm mostly concerned about fire hazards versus gas going bad. I had a full 5 gallon plastic kerosene can almost cause a major disaster last year. Justin, can you add a picture of axle and pin? I've replaced several axles but not sure what your '61 looks like...

    Well it's time to get my gas cans organized and I think I want to finally switch from garage sale red plastic cans to all metal. The plastic ones swell and shrink out in the pole barn all year and sometimes sit unattended for weeks in the hot summer. At about $70 for a new red 5 gallon metal can...

    Any reason NOT to swap out manual hydro relief valves for automatics? I'm cleaning mine up in a 169 and it hit me, wny not just swap em all out? I could then push it ain't? The hydro has fresh hytran and still squeals, so why not go auto?

    169 hydro all together, thanks for the forum posts and emails. Here is my "A-HA!" moment that helps me somewhat understand what the float lock out does. Notice what is happening in each picture and which position the fat cotter pin sits. Maybe these pictures don't explain it well, neither the...

    Great info, thank you. Did all as suggested and put brakes back on axle. Ready to fire it up this weekend, will keep you all posted. Thanks again.

    Thanks for the advice; I will try the tape. The area around the fan is tight with very little room to work. Attaching the clevis assembly correctly is confusing, see photo. I don't have a lock out and the PO had one pin it there like it shows. (Still not really sure what the lock out does and...

    Thanks for the info. The external brakes are completely off, so I have to take the tires back off to get at everything. I was hoping to do all of this with the tires and fender off in case I need to make any adjustment in any linkages. Now the hydro fan is 1/4" from the float lock out, but it is...

    Thanks for the hydro advice. It's all together and about ready to start up. A few questions. I replaced the push button manual check valves with auto. I can push the tractor back and forth on the shop floor fairly easily - is there anything wrong with doing this now that the valves are auto? Has...

    Grrrrrr, got some 1/2" shims for the trunnion and decided to put some on the other side of the shaft on the right. Grrrr, it's 11/16th! Back to the store.... Does it ever end?

    Thanks David, I liked both videos. Do you use pipe tape or dope on any of your hydro threaded connections? I've read both sides of the argument, but would like your opinion too. I ordered some hydro parts from CC Specialties at the top of the page and was happy with the prices and fast shipping...

    David, thanks for the photo. It helped with my problems and I hope to make progress this weekend. I wonder if I can recycle the hytran if I do something wrong and have to drain it right away?

    Here is my damper spring plate assembly (703-0194) next to my trunnion shaft assembly (SU-3103181). Yes, I'm 99.999% certain it is on backwards. Charlie, thank you for your comments. When I flip this around so the side showing is against the trunnion, what fills in the space that looks like a...

    Marty, I agree with you. My family uses a fully restored 70 and a 100 to pull customized 55gal barrels as an "Apple Barrel Express" at Pennsylvania apple festivals. My father won't let me use my 122 even when one of the "classics" is out of service. He thinks the 70 and 100 are in a class by...

    Wow Marty, your 122 looks great! Is that the Eddie Bauer edition? I tried to keep mine looking nice after I spent all winter tearing it down and repainting a few years ago. I took it for a drive, ag tires pulled a rock which scratched the wheels weights, breather spewed oil, hood marred grill...
