Marty - I think that bolt it there just to get people to ask why. My guess is that bolt was probably just put there because it would fit and stick. Someone probably really used it in the hitch hole in the adapter. The question probably goes along with the question about why the tractor has 2 different rear tires.

Jason - the Fever can start a couple ways. If it starts on this site it's Yellar' N White. Sometimes a guy shows up that already has the Big Red Fever, and it mutates from Red to Yellar' N White, and sometimes even vice versa. The only other thing I can tell ya is that there is no cure. It rescinds sometimes but usually comes back with vengeance and only calms down when another CC unit is added to the herd. I have no doubt you've got the Fever, and suspect you'll encounter a real tough episode in the next 12 months that will likely result in you expanding to have more of a herd.
 
Harry,

Thanks, my guess was right. Can't wait to take it apart, sandblast it, paint, and put it back right.

Marty, that Original didn't used to belong to Tony Stewart did it? The two different rear tires would allow for better cornering for dirt track/oval racing.

Except you'd have to go clockwise not counter clockwise...

Sorry to bother you guys again. But does anyone know if there's a service manual for the original 38" timed deck?
 
Marty - I was only guessing about that bolt so you're guess is as good as my guess.

Kraig - Oh Great One Keeper of the Photos - my son just picked up this brochure which actually on the last page states on the bottom of the last page that it's an advertisement. Have you seen this one before? I haven't.

I didn't know IH called the Cub Cadet a "Home Tractor".

I also didn't know IH thought it was ok to jump curbs, as they note on the 2nd page. After seeing this I think my son expects me to send him an apology - about 20 years to late. Maybe it was only ok if you had 7 or 10hp.

Sorry the pics aren't better. I haven't mastered the art of re-sizing.

So I bought a mess of PTO's from Rob Houtz!
He's says, have I got a deal for you! LOL
Anyway, Rob and a fellow Cubber from New Zealand (David Dench)showed up yesterday.

And with them were 2 pallets of PTO's with a twist!
I had to split up the pallets to lift'um, since I don't have a big forklift anymore.

Jeremiah Chamberlin, and Steve B., thanks for the responses on the 782 governor issues. The overspeeding is now fixed, still have a little work to do on the carb surging, but at least I can now mow without fearing I'll be seeing Kohler parts scattered on the lawn.
'Preciate the help!
 
Harry,
That must be the brochure from the 1964 popular science.
Now where did I see that posted before?


Charlie,
Hope you had sumptim to lift those pallets.
