IH #1 tiller
 

I just bought a 127 with a #1 tiller and brinly hardy planter so where to find tiller extinctions {didn't come with extinctions} and new tines {the old ones are badly worn out} as for the planter it seems to be in good shape but only came with one plate {peanut} where can i get plates preferably a complete set

Good luck with all of your requests... All hard to find, best bet would be to place an ad in the for sale/wanted section of the site. :beerchug:

Especially hard to find when they are extinct. :biggrin2:

They made more than one so somewhere somebody has what im needing that's my wishful thinking anyways

Tines available from Cub Cadet still, about $10 each. IHCCW or Charlie(CC Specialties) has them

As mentioned earlier, check with our sponsors and put an ad in the wanted section.

Extensions do come up on ebay from time to time as do the plates for your planter.

I've heard others say that their tines are "worn out" not exactly sure how worn tines need to be before they can be considered worn out. I believe that unless they bend when they engage the ground or are completely worn away they will work.

IIRC at least two of my tillers have BADLY worn tines, but they still work very well.

I would be interested to know if anyone has had a tiller with tines that were worn badly enough that they no longer worked well.

Mine are badly worn, to the point of very little metal left where the tines curve, but it still tills surprisingly well. New tines on it by spring if I can fnd the cash...metal shop could duplicate those extensions

It wasn't a cub tiller, but I once borrowed a Troy bilt horse tiller with tines wore down to sharp points. It did not till full width and it left a ridge in the center under the gearbox. I went over it 6 times in different directions trying to overlap and remove the ridge (it was hard to see as it was under tilled dirt). After a new set of tines, it tilled like a dream. Sammac had a pretty badly worn set that probably would not have worked well had he tried them, there are a couple pics here:
