Sound investments in my CC 105
Hi all. I have decided to keep my 105 and get her into good useable shape. She is running, I had her out last night for awhile. Some of the issues are:
Seat is shot, I have no Cub dealer local to me, would TSC be able to get me a modern MTD CC seat? I am looking for comfort over originality. Steering is so sloppy. Do I rebuild my self, order the super steering upgrade from Guy Lauderback? Does anyone have experience with his various kits? He also has a completely rebuilt assembly available for like $165 (yikes). Starting system needs work. Right now I start with a lead from the big terminal on the starter/gen to the positive on the battery. Lead gets pretty hot and sparks, I don't want to damage anything. Where do I start looking? Starter/gen test? Or is it the solenoid or something like that? I have a chance to buy a backup carb for the K241 for $38. Is this a good investment? It has new gaskets and inlet needle, but there is some play in the bushings. It is local to me though. I need a new clutch cable. This and the seatr and steering are first priority and the starting/charging system. Any help or advice is appreciated. Ok last question. Does Tractor supply carry the maintenance parts? Air cleaner, filters, plugs, hy-tran, etc? Thanks guys, keep on Cubbing.

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.
