I need David Kirk's email address to order some parts. For some reason I can't pull up his complete catalog with prices and email. Says something about default mail not installed correctly. I'm not very computer literate. HELP! Thanks, Doug.

Don T, Thank you for the video. Brought tears to my eyes. I too got a new seat from Charlie and a neon cub cadet clock from Chris Westfall. I mean from my family but from these sponsers.

Doug, I believe someone said you can.t use Firefox on his website.

Melody, I don't need to get on his website. Just need his email address so I can email him to order parts. Thanks, Doug.

Doug, I just sent you David's email address in an email.

 

[kmcconaughey]

Please do not post your or other people's email addresses. It a great way for spammers to mine addresses.

 

[mschutz]

OK Kraig sorry. Charlie had given it to him on the wanted page on the 17th.

Hello everyone, I'm a newbie in southeast WI. I've a well used but not abused Cub Cadet 125 for the last 4 years. She has been awesome for both mowing and pushing snow except for some problematic steering issues. This summer the steering had gotten so loose that a full turn of the steering wheel is a nudge at the front beam linkage. The linkage connectors are oblong and flopping around. I need to rebuild/repair the front end.

I just picked up a donor cadet 123 with headlights, so I hope to have the needed used parts and upgrade my 125. I already have a new wire harness that includes the light wiring. I plan to tear into this project next weekend, so any and all comments and suggestions welcome. Thanks everyone, Dan

Dan, WELCOME!

The 125 is my favorite Cub Cadet.

Check out the FAQ for some hints at repairing and improving the steering. The headlights won't directly mount into the 125 grill as the mounting plate is different.

Thank you for the lead and formidable welcome, I'm not worthy

I just checked the FAQ and see there is ALOT of info... must be a common problem? I'll take a good read and post photos in the coming week. Dan

I think I just got reprimanded!

 

[kmcconaughey]

Yep.

 

[dmay]

Didn't mean to get anyone reprimanded.

Doug, don't worry very very few people get to reprimend Charlie...

The 125 is a great tractor, but if you want to upgrade

try to find a 149...JMHO

 

[digger]

Art,
Same as I have on the loader tractor, Just cleaner.

 

[aschumacher]

Gee wiz Charlie, if that tractor gets any wider it wount fit thru the doorway!
