Yellow tractor = Cub 105 (10 h.p.)
Based on the yellow tractor pic, I'd say i have a 10 hp. The gas tank is the larger one and the steering wheel is the fancier one. The air cleaner was trashed when the PO rolled it, so I can't tell there. This tractor has been tinkered on by a PO (you wouldn't believe the homemade mule and front blade on it. It also has a rigged up pulley on the front to run something - not sure what - it'll come off when I remove the engine).

I didn't even think to compare it to my 106 - duh.

Thank you for the great response. I'll confirm all of this in the morning!
