[T-Mo]

I couldn't find TC-157 anywhere, either on the pdf page site or anywhere else. I know I could have bought one from Binder Books, but I decided to create my own using the Cub Cadet Parts site.

1250 Parts Catalog

Terry R., nice job on the Parts Catalog. If you get bored, you could do one for every model.

 

[T-Mo]

Thanks, Kraig. And it's search-able too.

I for one have to agree with Kraig , If you did one of every Cub that this site is about ,I would love to see that. For all of us to enjoyin this yellow addiction. For all that can`t afford to buy a manual also. I would much rather see a Cub get restored than to hear one went to the scrap yard. Thanks for that.

I`am spreading two part epoxy on my blower and will soon see some results of my labor lol.

Thanks, Don. If I could learn a little more about outlining and Table of Contents formatting in Microsoft word, it would go faster and better. Also it would have been nice to have the NLA part numbers available. That would have been valuable for anyone who is looking for used NLA parts.

If you enjoy it do it,You will be remebered as the guy that made it real easy to have yellow fever. I bet Kraig would let you have what you need to move on with this great idea.

I`am up to no good here.Should be able to shape this mess in 5 hrs.

Terry, I may have an old "TC" parts book that covers the QL series. If I can find it I might be able to provide some part numbers.

Don, looking good!

 

[T-Mo]

Kraig,
Yes that would help. Also any help on outlining and toc formatting in word would be appreciated. I am assuming most of the parts in the QL series are the same, except for engine, decals, and a few minor things. I could consolidate all the models in the QL into one or at least, two - one for hydros and one for gear drives. I have to look into that more.

[dtanner]

My mind wanders lol.I do believe in suport for this form ,IS by sponsers.So to pay my dues I have decided to buy a Manual for every Cub I restore.It will be braging rights for me (

) .{ Have a look and shut up, lol}
I~am having WaaaaaaaY to much fun.Thanks Charlie also for letting me enjoy my Cubs

How do you recognize a Canadian Cub Cadet?
It's headlights are on in the daytime.
(Our Canadian made Jeep is that way, too).

The old girl looks good, Don!
Whoa, here! No wheel weights?

Don t,
nice 149 that one is nexed on my list

Well, here's 129 number 3. I had a nice visit with the owner/po and got the whole trip done in about 6 hours.

This tractor has a problem with the flywheel screen coupler being loose. The engine is good and tight with no smoke but I'm scared to remove the coupler and find a buggered crank. Maybe the aluminum is just cracked or the flywheel nut just loose. The box of goodies was included and it included 3/4 of a set of the real Frankenstein bolts. I'm missing one jam nut. The spring just needs to be put back on the blade. The pto still has the outer race of the pto bearing in it. He just took everything for the pto off when he discovered he didn't need it. All tires hold air and the rears are new looking. The chains and blade make it look like a northern cub. We don't really need that stuff down here.

I may actually sell this one. I've been wanting a wf blade and the 3 pt can stay as well. I have several decks that will fit so that won't be a problem. I've been asked by many people if I'd sell a cub so I might just get one ready for the serious minded.

You are missing a few pieces for a brake style pto.
but they do work slick.I do love the 129 as it was my first tractor a few years ago.it now has a loader attached, but is a great working cub. To think that I took the time to break it in pulling a weight and when it got hot, cool it down again.You can bring back the dead when it comes to a cub!

 

[mgonitzke]

Wayne-

The aluminum drive cup is probably broken...I've seen a few of them break. There's only one way to find out...
