Implements (including A-42A thrower) for a 100
Nice to see the passion and knowledge for all things Cub on this site.
My son-in-law recently gave me the 100 that his Grandfather bought new. It does not have the creeper gearset. Along with the 100 I have a mower, a dozer blade, disc and a plow.
I've read 100 pages on the Implement thread and have learned much, but also have questions.
I'll start with what I don't have and that is a snow thrower. There is an A-42A for sale locally that the owner says is 25 years old but still has paint on the auger and had not been used much. Price is $275 or best reasonable offer. From what I've seen here, that might be a little on the high side.
Can the 100 without the creeper gear manage this thrower? It seems that 1st gear is just too fast to navigate and to throw snow effectively. Will changing the sprocket or pulley give the auger enough speed so I can drive the mower slower through the snow?
Finally, does a 100 without creeper really have the power to plow?
Thanks
