what was I SUPPOSED to do?
Ok, you guys know the story by now. It's a small room, the coffee pot is already half empty, folks are in small groups talking about,,,,you know what. I stand up,,,,,my voice quivering with emotion,,,,,,,my name is Tom, and I have problem! Any way, what would you do, when the gregslist add started with, "last chance" 107, bad motor, no deck but does have a snow blower, and tiller. If not sold by Wed will ,,,,,,,,choke,,,, gasp,,,,,,,SCRAP! What I bought was a a 107, with a no compression, (and I mean none) K241, a very nice 1A tiller and a QA36A blower. Oh and I forgot to mention, it has a 3 point, right angle gear box, wheel weights, tire chains, Spring assist and head lights.

I wonder how many Cubs are slipping through the network of enthusiasts and actually being crushed for mere scrap. Reminds me a little of those photos you see of F4U Corsairs being pushed over the sides of carriers or piles, literally piles of P38's being crushed by dozers and burned. Either of those machines are practically priceless today.

Would've done the same! Make sure compression relief isn't giving you false zero and doesnt just need adjustment, not sure the 104 has it but worth mentioning!! Be great to a have a running machine for scrap price!!

You know your getting bad when you start thinking of ways to sneak them in the yard without your family seeing them. Sometimes they don't understand that you may need a part off of one so you just buy the whole thing and after getting it home you find the parts you need (on your work bench) and you might as well fix up the so called donor you just bought. LOL

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.
