Working on assembling my 982 today. I have a question about the large spring on the trunion. It floats between the two spring caps by about 1/4" is this correct or should it be held snuggly between the spring caps? The small one is keeping the end caps in place and apart.

Thanks

The last few cub trunions that I have repaired I place a washer over nipple of the spring caps on both ends. I found the big spring fit tighter and the cub worked great

ok lets see if I can successfully post some pics


these were from last weekend when we burned brush pile. unfortunately it was so wet and soft that 106 kept sinking in and wasn't much help. I don't think a leaf blower or air hose will get it clean

Mike M,

IH never made or offered any stakes for a #2 trailer. Those are homemade versions by a previous owner. The trailer did come with the stake pocket provisions spot welded in place.

Donald,

I stopped at the hardware store and bought some grade 8 washers. One washer was loose, two is a little tight but figured tighter is better. I'm sure with that big spring loose and able to float around is a cause for hydro creep and the infamous slowing down and speeding up one gets with a load increase and decrease. I think I'm going to start a new thread under the referbish and restore area so people can check out my progress and get some tips from people and also provide some help to others as I go.

Brian- I have had the same trouble on my 1250. Mine was the adjustment on the rods that control the trunion plates. You can adjust the length of these to give more speed in either direction. You probably have too much total speed in forward and not enough in reverse. That made mine very sluggish in reverse to where it would hardly go in reverse up a hill at all
