After several years, we may finally get some plowable snow tomorrow! Put the dozer blade on the 128 just in case.
Did someone mention hoods!
I'm going to pickup another CC tomorrow evening. It doesn't have any decals on the hood but I think it must be a 123. It doesn't have the fiberglass dash and it's a hydro with flat fenders. Could it be something else?

Charlie, those are awesome!
Edward, sounds like a 123 to me. In addition to the metal dash, the 123 had a hydro control lever that looks kind of like a plain bent rod with a black knob. The 1x5 on through the 1x9 series all had the chromed cast aluminum hydro control lever.

The gas tank started leaking on my 125. I just re-soldered the connector on the bottom of the tank and it looks like the leak is gone now. The problem is I now have some beads of solder inside the tank that don't want to come out past the baffle.
Does anyone (Kraig?)have a picture of a disassembled 12hp tank that shows what the baffle looks like? Thanks!

Michael, I thought there was someone on here that had taken a tank apart but I could not find the post(s) I believe the openings in the baffle are in the corners so you may be able to get the solder bits out by holding the tank with the corners pointing down and tip the tank to hopefully allow the solder bits to roll into the main portion of the tank and then dump them out the fill opening.
MICHAEL M. - Kraig is correct. I "accidently" took a K321 tank apart, same tank as the K301, and the only holes between the baffled area & large area of the tank are in the corners, and they are pretty small. A B-B sized hole, maybe just a bit bigger.
I just got a pic from a guy saying that the PO did a little welding to fix the drive shaft on his 149, LOL

Welding a moving target?

It kinda looks like after it broke and welded it, it broke again and they re-welded it, and when it broke again...
Well, you get the idea. Gonna take some work to get to the fasteners and remove that P.o.S., shame to do that to a piece of equipment!

Steve... Like you said , I thought it would work also ,the holes line up but it just would not fit at all. I did try using just the mule drive from the 104 by itself to try bolting the snow plow sub frame to it just to try. Didn't have anything to loose by trying ,didn't work either. lol I know it has nothing to do with bolting the blade on. It did give me a few ideas how I can make it work without being a big hassle. I know one thing for sure , I will not put any new holes on the 104 frame at all. Always have next year to figure it out. thanks
Jonathan, did you see the photos of the Narrow Frame blade sub-frame that I posted? Perhaps that will give you some ideas on how to modify your current blade sub-frame with some bolt on brackets.

Mid-Atlantic storm beginning to hit here at the house. Snow blade on 1650 is ready to go. Snow blower on the other color tractor. Weather man is predicting much quality seat time!
In 2007 or so I won a QA-36A Snowthrower at the Plow Day in Rockford, Iowa. a couple years ago I hooked it to my 149 and blew snow for a few minutes then never used it again. I have a 4x4 ATV with a Plow. Yesterday I blew snow with it and my 1250 - WOW !!! These things really work!
Earlier this year I plowed with this 1250 and my new-to-me 54" blade - that is a whole lotta blade for a Cub, as others said the front likes to slide sideways when the blade is angled. My other 42" blade works well.
Here's a couple pics after I swept snow off it, and most of the rest had melted off in my heated garage. Next year a hydro lift will be added, I have a 1650 carcass with hydro lift awaiting to be installed.
