Hydro-

You may very well be able to replace the shaft seal from the outside but why not just take it all apart and check the "innerds"??? I would. You can access the spring, spool valve O-rings, pump gears, etc. I found a guy on a popular auction site that sells the seals (I think they hard to come by...not sure though) and you might want to go back with two. Also, be careful taking the reservoir rear gasket off. It should "unscrew" after the nut is removed.

Hydro-

I forgot about Pauls write-up on the hydraulic system. It is very good and should tell you everything you need to know.

One more thing I'll throw in here. The big reservoir gasket replacement from Mc-C is thicker than OEM and does work just fine as Paul states but I found it very easy to cut while in the groove (where it goes) with a razor knife. This allows the reservoir to mount closer and even within the groove for a fail safe fit.

Just an added .02 worth.

Gerry , do you have a Cub down in Florida with you. Is it and you OK with the strange weather that went thru??

 

[mhorozko]

Ok, so we're finally getting enough snow here in Buffalo, N.Y. to attack with the 122 and the 42 inch snowthrower. My question is How can I find out if there are any cubbers or cubberett's from this forum nearby me?

Here's a weird question for you all. And I would be surprised if anyone knows the answer.
Is part 17 on a 147, on the picture on top, interchangeable with part 15 on a 126, on the second picture below?

 

[aschumacher]

Terry, did you check the part numbers usually below those pictures and see if they were the same?

 

[jbaker]

Terry I will go out on the limb as I don't know NFs very well.
But no, the shaft size is the same but the hole spacing/layout is different. It may work but not right.

Now for a NF expert to set me straight

Allen,

Those parts are nla so no part numbers are listed,now if someone has an old nf parts book it will help.
