Today I took inventory of just how little I actually know about Cub Cadets...cursed the rain...made plans to go to the Rock River Thresheree in Edgerton WI tomorrow...tried to figure out whether the 3-point I bought for my 1811 can be made to work with my 108 . Pacified SWMBO [i.e. cleaned up the oil spill from disassembling the K301 that came with my 108]. Decided maybe I should offer that 3-point [388? 389?] for the 1811 up for sale since I just can't see plowing with a hydro [and I have the parts for the OEM hitch for the 108].

Then tried to figure out why the PTO belt in the 108 has so much offset in it [the idler pulleys on the tensioner sit a couple inches forward of the PTO pulley and the belt kinks where it runs on and off the PTO pulley]...but that probably has to do with the 'replacement' [8hp? 6hp? dunno] engine in the 108 and/or the belt is stretched way beyond it's useful service life...will worry about that after I get the K301 installed.
