Default Hood fit on my Quietline 1200

Just got a new 1200 yesterday. It runs and looks pretty darn good except the hood fit. It seems to come up short on fit to the dash panel. I tried to move it back but ran out of slot room on the 4 mounting bolts. I tried moving the dash panel, but only limited success. Seems one side is up off the frame when the bolts are lose and the hood is hand fitted.....till the bolts are torqued.

What do you experts recommend to get the hood to fit better? It was banging and making a horrible racket, sounded like it was a sick diesel hiding under it!

thanks

Can you get us a picture? Should be plenty of adjustment to get the right gap.

Once you get it fit better you can add some of this vinyl door edge to the back edge of the hood to reduce some of the rattle;

You should be able to adjust your nose piece as well to slide back a little where the nose connects to the grill base. That should do it for you.

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.
