    Anthony T, Try this link. Scroll down from the top ~ 4 posts and you will see the picture I was referring to that Kraig posted. https://www.ihcubcadet.com/forum/messages/106/313916.html

    Anthony T. You don't have the bracket with the U-bolt installed properly on your rockshaft. There is a flat portion on the lower part of the bracket that needs to be in contact with the bottom edge of your LH (sitting on seat) lift arm. The U-bolt will not provide sufficient clamp-up...

    Thanks Kraig! Good to know that David K. recommends using non-detergent oil for the break-in period. I believe I have located some 30 wt. non-detergent at a local Auto parts store. That stuff is not easy to find. Charlie,

    My Cub buddy Chad are I are nearly finished with a year long plus quest on rebuilding a 147 from nose to tail. The engine ended up needing a complete overhaul even though the PO said the previous PO before him had just had it overhauled a CaseIH dealer. Boy what a mess. We pulled the pan and...

    Charlie, Nice find on the 1712. Gee, how much weight did the PO have on it? Looks like a lot between the wheel weights and dumbbell weights on the back.

    Charlie, Nice blade setup. Be sure to put a deflector shield or a 90-degree elbow on the exhaust pipe outlet so you don't get the black carbon discoloration on the NOS paint, albeit its kind of sad shape. That is one thing I never liked about the QL's w/front mounted attachments. The heat...

    David K, Nice score! That QA-36A looks better than new. Charlie, Thanks for trying on steering seal retainers. I'll make sure to keep the old ones going fwd.

    Charlie, What's status of the Steering column "Seal/Seal Retainer" assembly IH# 394936-R91? I see on your website that Cub Cadet lists it as NLA. . I also see you are temporarily out of stock. I checked several other online sources with the same result. One would think this is a fairly...

    I prefer to drop the oil in the fall after right after parking it for the winter while the motor is still warm. That way you get out more of the small particles/contaminants in the oil rather than letting them settle to the bottom during the long winters nap and become sludge. In the spring fill...

    David S, Ouch! Was the flywheel lose on the crank or was the key just sheared? Boy, things really got galled up on your shaft. If the connecting pin on your other crankshaft is within spec for your existing rod, you s/b good to go with the swap. Hopefully with the piston at TDC, there...

    R E Woods, Scroll down 4 posts below yours to Steve Blunier's excellent post describing and illustrating the difference between a standard CC and a Super Garden Tractor (SGT) model.

    David S, I believe many internal parts on that green hydro pump are common with a CC configured pump beyond just the dump valves you mentioned. Charge pump, pressure relief springs, squash plates, plungers, etc. It is also a ported pump which is a plus so I would definitely recommend keeping...

    Jim C., It was our family owned dealership in operation from 1915 to 1980. We were in the process of closing down in 81 following the death of my grandfather in Oct 1980 as the contract with IH was in his name. Early in the process, I encouraged Dad to check with our zone manager about...

    Ethan K, Kohler produced most of the QL engines w/o balance gears due to the past problems of them becoming grenade gears and ventilating the sides of blocks on the 1X6/7 and 1X8/9 Series. To address the added vibration issue the QL models utilized iso-mounted rails to support the engine and...

    Charlie, WOW , looks like he has more Cubbies than even you. No wonder Cub Cadets are getting harder to find.

    Looks like Steve B is getting ready for Plow Day! Love those old IH Picts. The Series 60 2+2's were cool tractors in hard times. The 2+2's were awesome for plowing and the Super 70's would had become a dominate force in the market had Case IH chosen to produce them. The 2+2's proved the value...

    Wanted To Buy

    Still looking for a good gearbox (4-bolt style) for a #1/#2 rear mount tiller at reasonable cost. Pulleys would be a plus. Contact via email in my profile. Thanks.
