Made some progress on the 149 this afternoon. Thanks to the generosity of another member here I was able to get ahold of the correct hydro control shaft and lever to replace mine. I got those installed on the tractor but I forgot to order the plastic friction bushing for it yet. But, for now it is tightened up enough to use. Then I painted and installed my new drive shaft and couplers from Jeff with new rag joints. I also bolted back on the seat pan and got my new seat mounted and new choke cable installed. So hopefully tomorrow I can heave the motor back in and button up the front end. Then, I should be able to attempt a test drive.
Sorry no pictures yet as it was well after dark when I was done putting tools and parts away for the night.
