    Another 147 question from a newbie

    Hi all. can someone please tell me the the purpose of this swinging rod on the front frame of my 147. my guess is …..it’s swings down to lock the mower deck or snowblower or other implements in place. thanks Rick

    Cub 147 part clarification please.

    Just cleaning up and getting ready to paint some parts (when it gets warmer). Upon inspection of this shaft which holds up the foot rests and (some other things I’m sure) ,it looks like it’s been modified. There is a large slot cut out of this bracket and another piece welded over this slot...

    Question: because I’m curious

    I was just putting my cub cadet 147 back together and noticed there are slots on the bottom of the axle where the spindles go in . Does anyone know what these slots are for. I assumed they were there to aid in the cast process. just curious. Thank you to all who respond. Rick

Put everything through the wire wheel or the sandblaster. only replaced 2 needle bearings, about 6 bolts, and the drive chain...

    The dissembling is almost done

    Almost finished the dissemble part of my 147 restoration project. I can’t believe the power of rust. Some parts were so seized I was hours getting them off /apart. Still have the brake pedal shaft giving me problems. I’ve been heating,tapping,soaking in penetrating oil for a couple hours a day...

    Started the 147 restoration
