I had a positive ending to an unexpected and very early failure. My 2186 is my main mowing machine. I had been mowing for about 30 minutes and I noticed my foot pedals were falling out of the foot area. I made it back to the garage and found a very skimpy plate used for holding the pedal assembly in it's proper place. Take a look at the picture of this pitiful plate. Maybe 1/8th thick. I was shocked and embarrassed for newer Cub Cadets at that point. I understand that these models are primarily for mowing but I was somewhat surprised at the cheapness of this part and the plastic so-called bearings...
Please realize that I have 8 Cubs so I'm not anti Cub, just anti cheap.
Anyway, I pulled the part, welded it, installed it and finished mowing and it held together. Maybe it will last another 300 hours. I'm thinking if it were a 1/4 inch steel it would never break.
At least I had the welder and had just enough knowledge to weld it.

Sorry about the twisted photos..

Nancy had the 125 NF out with the #2 trailer doing some clean up around the wood pile.

Very Cool Todd. Now that it's a narrow front, narrow frame should we call it a NNF or a NFNF? :biggrin2:
