Terry B.,
Was looking at the one armed loader in your profile. Did you fabricate the bucket or buy it off the shelf? If so, who's the manufactorer?
Also, thanks for the trouble shooting comments re the 124. Will archive the comments.

Ray,
I bought the loader and the bucket as a kit. It came in parts and I had to weld it together. About 30% of the build was customized by me to fit on my 147. The arm and the bucket was built per the plans. I had received a welder for Christmas last year and was looking for something to build when I ran across the plans. I chose the one arm design to keep the weight down. I also wanted to be able to use all my attachments.

If you are just looking for a bucket for an existing loader I would look for a ATV bucket. They are about the right size.

This just in from Charlie...... A K301AS

 

[rdehli]

Kraig .... in pic 4 {from the top down} there is a small round cover on the left side of the coil. Whatis that for or what was suppose to be mounted there? Just wondering

 

[kmcconaughey]

Dang, Charlie beat me.......

 

[kmcconaughey]

Rob, you mean the oval cover with two bolts holding it on? If so that is for a mechanical fuel pump.

 

[rdehli]

Thanks Charlie ...in your pic the cover is right below the carb bowl

 

[rdehli]

Kraig ...now that you say it it makes perfect sense ...just had a senior moment !!!!!!!!!!!!!

That photo is of Wyatt's "Wheatland" Cub.

 

[wcompton]

Thought that looked familiar. . . . .

 

[digger]

I just had to share this, You can always tell when you get stuff from a Cub Cadet guy in the mail!

 

[rdehli]

Thats why the photo looks familiar. Knew I had seen that before.

Charlie, Thanks for the thoughts, after fiddling with it for a LOOONG time I'm kinda leaning towards the inevitability of the sprocket tracking to one side or the other, so my next step is some thrust washers in there to keep it from eating the casting. I'm about halfway through the outside zerk fitting now, but the one on my CC42 is good...I'm beginning to see the wisdom of a pile o'parts units. I've got a 4300 sq ft heated "playroom" out back so maybe I'll have to get to Cub hunting in the hedgerows this spring.
Bill
