Hi from VA
Hi all,
I joined this site on Friday with the intention of posting a "for sale" ad for my 128. I took pics, looked it over, wrote down what info I thought was relevant, etc. Then I got sad at the thought of it leaving...and decided to keep it. So why post? Because I'll need some advice on things - I'm not mechanically inclined and it doesn't run right now since it's been sitting so long, but I'm hoping to change both of those things (and failing that it might end up being for sale). I bought it about 12 years ago off of a guy I worked with. It mowed the flat 2 acres great for about 3 years, then we moved and didn't need to use it. So it sat...and sat...then about 2 years ago I had it tuned up where it was running again, but the brakes felt weak...so it sat again, never having mowed. This weekend I pulled (pushed actually) it into the garage to take the deck off and see what there is to work with, I actually pretended I knew what to look for! I already have questions to post, sorry if they are pretty simple to those more experienced. Here are some pics - thanks for reading. Janeen

Glad to have you! It's awesome, you decided to keep the 128. They are nice tractors.

Hi from VA
Thanks guys - I hope this ends up with me keeping the 128 vs selling it. I don't need to use it right now, so that is good, I have no deadline to get it running.
I'm in Woodbridge, VA. Mike, how come your 128 looks so much better than mine?! I guess it would help if I cleaned the leaves and acorns off of mine, huh? Janeen

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
