Marty,

Since you asked,

23x10.5-12 Tru Power's on 9" Wide Rims,,,

The side wall bulge on the 9" wide rim is just enough to keep the lugs perfectly "FLAT" on the ground when properly inflated, versus a narrower rim which creates a convex lug 2 ground contact patch / or a wider rim which creates a concave lug 2 ground contact patch,,,
I've seen the 23x10.5's on wider rims and the side wall bulge sticks out so far it looks weird/goofy,,,,

IMHO the 8.5" or 9" wide rim is perfect for the 23x10.5 ag
As far as the 100 fronts you gotta go w/ the Firestone Tri's,,,
For some reason (just my 2cents) all NF and earlier get Tri's, WF and later models get the V61's

Lew, I looked at the pictures, does that count?

Mike, to quote the manual: "Align the primary timing mark on crankshaft with timing mark on camshaft, Refer to figure 12-11. Press the crankshaft into rear bearing. Make sure the camshaft and crankshaft gears mesh and that the timing marks remain aligned while pressing."

Morning all, I know I have been a stranger lately but just wanted to say hello to all hope you had a great Christmas

 

[mfrade]

Frank, I know what the manual says.

From you're earlier post, Quote"OK, I'm happy now. Almost. The tab that New Bedford Mike mentioned, on this one, has a wear mark and a little piece of buildup that 1 swipe of a fingernail file would make disappear. Now: Maybe, just maybe, the timing marks I tried to show are important? "unquote...

I am (or was) trying to find where you showed the timing marks. Don't worry about it now.. it lost something in the translation I guess.

Jason,

Soooo... if you don't mind me asking, what's the plans for the new set of ags I see laying next to your 149 in one of your pics?

 

[sblunier]

Jason,

Once again, that deserves a Buford T. quote.......

"Nice A$$"

 

[sblunier]

Brian A.,

Excellent incorporation of "BRS" into the Night Before Christmas......just release the blade trip lock next time!!!!!

("Space Balls" quote for those of you under 30 out there.....and if you are under 30....."Space Balls" is a must see......better than that new age Star Wars 17 "the search for more Money" crap...another Spacer Balls quote...

)

 

[hydroharry]

Jeff B - hey buddy, I noticed you kinda been absent without authorization. Just where the heck you been? Everything ok? You been ramming snow with the 169 again?

 

[mgwin]

Thanks Jason. Great pics.
I agree with tri-ribs on narrow frames with the "4" inch rims, but not sure about the "6" inch rims.
Does anyone have pics of V61's on a narrow frame? Particularly a 70/100.

Kirk L,

The Baby ags are Carlisle Super Lug for the front of the 149. Firewood runs up the Treacherous mountain logging trail get pretty scary when cubby is loaded down and front of tractor is not going where I steer!!!!! The current turfs have a LOT of "push" or straight forward, when I'm steering to prevent rollover,,,

Marty,,,

Found these on a google search,,,

Can't wait to see updates on the 100,,, All the Tractors I've seen so far that you have gotten ahold of Turn out Beautiful and Top Notch,,,,

Ever wish your Cub had some sort of suspension!
Here's the solution one of my customers has come up with.

A late "THANK YOU" for the Merry Xmas wishes - and the picture and poetry. I thoroughly enjoyed it this side of the pond (South Africa), where we enjoy a hot, summer Xmas.


Digger, I cannot believe someone actually built those 'suspended' wheels. Different tyres with lower pressure may probably achieve an even better ride.


My thanks for all the interesting postings on this wonderful site and my best wishes for a wonderful, healthy and Cubby-filled 2017 for each and everyone.

Jason W.
They are available, just gotta know the right person and the right place to go. LOL

 

[dmay]

Have 20 gallons of prop wash and 75 feet of flight line for sale.

 

[hydroharry]

Since it ain't OTF I Guess I missed out on Charlie's and Jason's discussions.

Wondering if anyone has seen one of these before. Chain sprocket seems to be attached to the wheel and has big ole draw bar on the rearend. Is this a homemade set-up? Is this to operate a saw or something? Did you jack the tractor up to run the saw? Lots of questions on something like this.

 

[aewald]

Harry - Look at the hitch, looks very heavy duty for homemade, My guess its OEM from somwwhere

 

[lpalma]

Harry must be for some rare attachment your Son found for a buzz o#*! saw or cement mixer, but, do you think it may be for a exercise bicycle or sumptin?

 

[sblunier]

Looks like a mounted sprayer or seeder drive to me....likely home made but with skills....
