Used the 2084 to go to the neighbors to pick up my augers from my 451 snow thrower and bring them home. We loaned our welder to the neighbor who is rebuilding a jeep and we needed to weld worn holes in both augers where they bolt on the shaft. Turned out good so now to get em ready to paint.

That's the idea! :biggrin2:

Got the carriage bolts for the 1872. Hopefully, I'll have wheel weights on the 1872 this evening. :beerchug:

Vince and I don't need wheel weights, all we have to do is sit on the poor tractors and they are over loaded LOL :biggrin2:

Cub's are resting. Giving them a break. With no rain haven't cut for 3 weeks.

Can't even go fishing, boat is at the doctor.

Nik,

We had a storm, so didn't get a chance to put the weights on.

Well late this afternoon my Dad's 2084 decided to spring a oil leak and make a mess underneath all the shrouding so I told him to get the tools ready and were going to pull the command so the engine is sitting in the middle of the garage floor and I talked to cousin Joe and this week we are going to get to the bottom of why we have this oil mess, Dad does have some pics so we will just have to wait till he posts them.

Yikes that sucks!

yea that is bad news happened to my green 317 hole in block both rods one piston and one jug anyway I got my plow blade on my 123 and with the ag tires I cant believe the traction these tires make had the plow on my 1650 with turf tires and couldnt do squat ag tires rule

What did the 317 have for power? I have one that was re-powered with a 20HP Honda after the series 1 K blew up.

A regular day
 

Today was a work day with the cubs... the 123 did mower duty (I need to get some new blades) and Dukes favorite multi colored O did sweeper duty. :-)

Hot out there today... but at least it was humid!

John

Looks good guys!
I mowed alittle with and the 48 inch mower I bought off of Mike but it is hard to mow with no throttle cable because i forgot to get one off him lol I'm happy with the mower i little it better than the little 38 inch.

Jenn mowed with the 2130. I got some seat time on the 1872 using the lawn sweeper.

I got some parts primed for the 149. Frame, rear end, front axle, spindles, & front wheels.

Made some new bearing races for the 100's steering box and got it reassembled. I rebuilt the steering box in '08 with new bearings and races. The new races I bought were hardened whereas the original ones were not. The new ones were too hard and brittle and they crumbled to pieces making the steering bind. The set I made are thicker and made of 4140 PHT material which should outlast the rest of the tractor.

Looks like it's going to be a nice day. Maybe, we can finally get the wheel weights on the 1872. :beerchug:

my girlfriends step dad called me to tell me the cub cadet 1200 i put together for him had just died in his yard and now has no compression...which made me start thinking something internally had broken. i got the tractor back to my place, tore the side panels off and noticed the air cleaner box was loose...so i paid no attention to it and took all the tin work, gas tank and firewall off. pulled the head. i cranked it over and the piston was moving which was a huge relief....but the intake valve was not. one of the screws that holds the air cleaner backing plate on got sucked into the engine and lodged in the intake valve. LUCKY it didn't get anywhere else...i took the carb off to get to the screw and the other bolt fell out of the carb. got the screw out and the valve seems to work fine. it has tons of compression still and fired right up with the vapors of gas left in the carb when i put it back on. before i bring it back to him, im going to locktite those bolts holding the air cleaner backing plate on. lesson learned.

Killed grass with the 2284 and 60" deck. No drama just a nice enjoyable day. :beerchug:

Got my footrest pads, wheel weights and new gas cap on the 1872. Here's some pics.

The super is coming along nicely Allen! Looking good!:beerchug:

Nice work ACecil :ThumbsUp:

Thanks guys!

Sweet Allen, it won't be long be for your plowing are you getting ags for it.

Thanks Logan! It will definitely have ags. :beerchug:

Sweet I can't wait !!!!!

Me either! :beerchug:

Get the Firestone's! In my opinion they are better than the true powers

I can't wait to see Allen plowing with the 1872! :beerchug:




What AG's are you thinking about, Allen? I will have to look at the 1782's 26x12-12s tomorrow..Not sure what AG's I have on it! :biggrin2:

Today, I went to a local exhaust shop...And had some pipes made for the 100, 1200 puller, and even had a chrome pipe I had laying around fixed to fit on the Farmall H. :beerchug:




The new tunnel cover for the 1782 came in today...Hope to change the fluids, filters, hydro fan, and install the CAT 0 hitch tomorrow! :ThumbsUp:

I'm thinking, I'll get the Tru Powers. I like the looks of them! I can't wait to plow with the 1872 either, Conner! :beerchug:

I like the looks of the Tru Powers better, also..But I think mine has Firestone's.



I can't complain, they came with it! :beerchug:

Nice Pipes!
 

Love the pipe kit & the touch of chrome!

Looks awesome, Conner! Great job!

Got Dually and the 1872 out for some seat time! :beerchug:

The pair look good Allen!:beerchug:

Had the 2284 out for some grass killing :biggrin2:

Love the sound of the V-Twin Kohler. Sounds like a Harley. Love the big 60" deck cuts grass fast so now I have more time to drink beer :beerchug:

Thanks Mike!

Good pictures, Allen! :beerchug:



I looked at my tires, they are Carisles, but not Tru Powers. They don't really have a name on them. :bigthink:

Thanks Conner! I like those ags!

Hey Allen is that a stick on the ground next to the 100? You better get the sweeper out LOL :biggrin2:

Seriously Buddy they do look good.

Thanks Sam. There could be a stick there...lol. :biggrin2:
