    Scott, FYI, the JD 200 series were made from 1975 to 1987, so it couldn't be a 1972. Transmissions that will work are from any JD 110 (4 speed) or 112 (no 112L) , 200, 208, 210, 212, 214 and 216. Also, the Peerless model 2300 transmissions are easy to work on. You should post this on wfm and...

    I didn't start lurking on sites like this one until late '99 or early 2000. I remember Jim Steele, Bryan, Kraig, Travis, Bob Necker, and a few others (some I can't even remember their names). A few of the ones I remember don't post anymore or only sparingly. So I consider myself a newbie as I...

    Course now everyone is gonna want them... I'll wait until CubArc68 folder comes out - these things can get you into trouble at work as one has a tendency to get lost in them and burn up "work" time.

    Kraig, Will do. I think I can dublicate this design too, but I would want to simplify the one bracket that attaches to the rock shaft - that looks like it can be minimize to make it easier to manufacture. Of course, having a nut welded to a spring is out of the question also - you would lose...

    Kraig, Thanks a lot for the pictures. It's good to see the two assist springs side by side like that. I may have some ideas on how to make a sort of IH spring. I have to find the time to do some 3D modeling.

    Kraig, Thanks a bunch on the Brinly assist spring photos. And yes, I would love to see pictures of the IH assist springs, especially with the ruler in them. I might take a look on how easy it would be to build one similar to IH's, but with a simplistic approach to it.

    Kraig, No problem - I can wait until you can download the pictures.

    I know that the NF space is tighter, but here's the spring assist I built a few years ago for my WF 129... I thought I'd post the pics for some ideas. The long link is just all thread with the end bent 90 degrees to go into the lift bellcrank and then a cross hole drilled in it for a hairpin...

    Kraig, That would be cool. That 11 3/4 dimension is handy, but it depends on the length of the spring I find and the length of the eye bolt. I would want enough adjustment either way so it might be hard to come up with an exact dimension, though one could if he knew the strength of the spring...

    I have been thinking about building my own helper spring for my narrow frame Cubs. I thinking about basing it on the Brinly spring, which uses the 3 point lift arm as an anchor for the lift and the frame as the stationary point and adjustment. The problem will be in sizing the spring and finding...

    Justin, I agree with Jerry - your stack needs to be braced. I haven't personally seen it, but I have heard of instances where a stack will vibrate and causing cracking or the threads stripping out.

    Frank, I'm not too concerned about using IH marked bolts, I just wanted to put this cover on my 104. I was thinking it was probably 5/16 x 18 or 3/8 x 16 bolts. I do believe the bolt head took a 1/2 inch wrench if I remember correctly.

    Guys, Quick, stupid question. What's the bolt size and thread that attaches item 7 below. I can not if mentioned or called out on all the narrow frame parts catalog. I'm at work and I want to pick up some bolts so I can attach one of these to my 104 this evening or I would just check myself...

    Thanks, Marty. I had forgotten that I added your 128 a few months back. It looks great.

    Marty, Kevin, If you don't mind, can you post pictures of your 128 and 169 respectively here: http://cubcadet.1.forumer.com/index.php?act=idx Or let me post them?

    Don, That's just one of 3 sheds that I used to store them. That one is 10 x 13, I also have a 12 x 16 and a 5 x 8 shed. My plan is to build a pole barn when I can find the money to do so.

    I took some more pictures of some of my Cub herd. Not shown is a 2135 and a 123.

    I got few of the Cubs out yesterday. One of my 2135s, the 122 and both of my 104s. Not shown are the other 2135, both 123s, and the 125.

    Dennis, I understand the need to monitor things - I prefer gauges over idiot lights in my cars and trucks. But common sense goes a long way in maintaining these engines. Keeping cooling fins free of debris, checking and changing the oil appropriately, mowing in the coolest part of the day (if...
