I recived my decals today and couldn't wait to get them on the tractor. Evidentally I should have done some research on how to put them on. The very first one I put on the hood I got it at an awful angle. Can you tell me how to get it off and is it possible to buy the decal that says international cub cadet? I read that i should have sprayed the area with window cleaner and squeeged the liquid out after getting the decal where you want it. Any other suggestions?

If your lucky enough to have put them on the shade and you have really good paint under them. Lifting a corner and a quick pull MIGHT get it removed.
But make sure that you angle the decal part being removed to where it's almost flat with the surface area underneath.
Also, a hair dryer on the back side to heat the metal a little. But you have to be careful doing that as the decal will STRETCH if you pull to hard.
And yes, it's always good to read before any project.

Keith: Yes. And just the other day someone mentioned that the K301 is 30 cubic inch, 1 cyl. and the K321 is 32 c.i.. Can learn something new every day around here.

I will give that a try, but incase I need to, can I just purchase the one decal, and will the window cleaner trick work?

Alex, I'm having the same problem. I have Just put 'em on the side panels so far and they look pretty good. How will they stick though, if the surface is wet/w window cleaner. I don't think
they are that kind of decals.

I did learn though, that they will sure magnify any surface blems or dirt embedded in the paint.

Oh well, after I make a few rounds w/the plow and/or tiller, I'll be the only one thaty will notice!!

To all on drive line problems. Drivelines have to be running true and straight. Narrow frames the pin in back of driveshaft needs to fit in flange hole perfect. Wide frames no notches in engine adapter and right pin. Ouietlines engine mounts and right height. 82 series right height check for spacer under engine. 1862 or cv style fine splines will wear out keep greased. back to first satement the truer you keep the driveshaft running the less wear you will have on all flexxing parts.
