Mine has the sleeve hitch, so I had to raise the backend real high to clear.

I had a jack under the deck lift but it was too wobbly. So I put two safety jacks one under each floor board mount. That was better, but I ended up breaking a fin off the fan due to hitting the shroud. :(

OK I "think" I've got it all re-coupled. I've still got to go through the cubfaq's on setting neutral and all that good stuff. However, my brake pedal is sticking now. I can't really tell where it's sticking/what it's sticking on. Any suggestions... Here's a few pics, I don't know if they are helpful or not. Oh ya, I got heim joints. :)

Jeff, I'm trying to start a "wish list" too. :)

Looks like your coming along great Gary! Heim joints will be a huge improvement, that can be your brake sticky point as well. The heim joints are pretty stiff till they get worked and tend to hold their position, but a tiny bit of lube on the joint "ball" shouldn't hurt.

I usually use the jack stands under the floor board/fender supports then guide the tranny under with the floor jack...its a balancing act, but has always worked well for me. Ive also supported the rear end with jack stands, and walked the tractor back onto it...but it seemed easier the other way around.

Let me know what you come up with on your little "list", and I'll see what I have :beerchug:

Jeff (teet)

woo hoo!!! I managed to get the tractor back together and appears to be working. I did the neutral adjust according to cubfaq and it looks like it's not falling into reverse as before. I can't really tell since I don't have the fenders, dash, steering wheel.... back on yet. But the hydro lever is staying put. Maybe now I can get onto trying to get this thing painted...
