Default The Fun Begins

Has anyone successfully tapped the connection ports on a Cyclops implement control valve to accept an NPT fitting? I am pulling the engine in my 2086 shortly to replace the plastic cam gear and while its out I plan to add a second valve and lines for front outlets. The factory kit lines are NLS and because it doesn't look like anybody makes an adaptor to go in the existing clamp style ports, tapping looks to be the best way to go. I know I'll have to disassemble the valve but the hole look to be pretty shallow and I am not sure how many good threads it will hold. It looks like an 1/8" NPT tap will work, is that big enough? Looking for some advice from the experts. The other option I understand is to cut the ends off a couple of used lift lines and have a new hose of the correct length crimped on.

The delete option doesn't appear on the second thread only this one. Guess I have to wait for a moderator.

Do not tap it, you will ruin the valve block.

Contact moderator Sam Mac, he has the parts in which you seek.

He'll probably be on in the AM.

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.
