My 1512D for dog rebuild

Oh well, Don, as I said you can use the chute from a model 551 thrower instead, it fits perfect but is taller! I much prefer it to the 450/451 low chute.

I called the local Cub Cadet parts guy today (60 miles away )to order all the parts for the 450 blower except the chute, what I need to know is will the top part of the chute fit the lower chute on the 551 thrower? I have all the welding done and the blower has been repaired and will be ready to use. I have looked around and can`t find a part number for the chute on the 551 blower. Could you tell me where to get the part number when you have a moment please.Next week I will start the 12x19 shed roof addition to my shop for tractor storage. I need space to put all the sub frame and decks I have for these Cubs and my Diesel;Thanks For all your good advice in the past. You make my hobby much easier on me and thanks again.

Oh the drive shaft it working great and well worth the effort.

Don,

Click the little business card above and type in 551 on the right in the model number box. Pulls up the look up and with a few clicks gives you a number 731-1381.

Don-

I assume today, the 9th is your birthday?

Hapy Birthday!

 

[dtanner]

Thanks for the good wishes. I was born on mothers day 1952 and had my 58 birthday Sunday.

 

[wshytle]

Don-

How ironic, we are the exact same age. I too have to go through the birthday thing on Mother's day every seven years or so.

Do you feel 58?....I don't, especially when I'm around my "toys" (cubs).

I hope we we both have a great 58th year.

Later.....Wayne

Guys I think I have a problem with the deisel in my 1512. I notice the heat gauge today is well over half and on the next mark. I did flush it and replace the thermostat ,so I`am lost as to why,? I do see there is only about a 1/4" between the fan and the rad and wonder if its to close to the ran to move much air. I`am open to ideas. thanks Don

You have to keep cleaning the grass screen in front of the radiator, or it'll do that. I have to stop a couple times an hour to clean the grass and bugs out of mine when I'm mowing.
