Hello - First visit with more to follow from NH
Just dropped in to find the gap specs to replace the points on my 1450. What a great site! I have owned my Cub for 10 years, and never really had to do too much to it, which is amazing considering it was already 25 years old when I bought it. Now I am looking to "fix" it up as it has treated me so well, and this looks like the place to get all of the info.
I bought the cub because my father in law is an IH guy all his life. He grew up as a potato farmer in Northern ME, and swears by IH. In fact he has several, and brings them to shows, and pulls. So, when my wife and I bought our house 10 years ago, I knew I needed a tractor, and it had to be a cub.
The 1450 was the perfect choice. I got it with the mower deck, and a mammoth snow blower attachment. In fact my father in law states he has never seen this attachment before. The fram on the blower goes all the way to the back of the tractor and pins back there as a class 3 hitch. I have PTO on the front, and hydrolic lift. I sanded and replainted the blower this past winter, and look forward to getting many more years out of it.
Well, that's my story for now. Thanks for putting this site together and maintaining all of this data.
