One followed me home
In my searches for my Grandfather's 107 mentioned in a previous post, this one popped up. While not his, I couldn't pass it up for the price. 1969 model. Looks like it lived a fairly mundane life for its 51 years. Seems to be original tires too. Some spots of touched up paint and some original areas - a good 20-footer, which is plenty good for me.
Long laundry list of course. Proper voltage output at the S/G but not back to the battery. Wiring seems a bit cobbled in places, so I think new wiring is in order. Tie rod ends could use some attention, and of course new engine oil, hytran and filter, and a good once over is on the list. All in all, just wear and tear items, I'd say, so I have a project now! Maybe will be able to alternate it on lawn duties with the 1440 before the end of the season if I hop to it. I'm sure I'll be digging back through the forum - no doubt much of the above has been covered. Figured I'd share with y'all. A few pics - potentially more this evening: |

That is a good looker, looks like it was garaged all of its life.

Thanks guys. I've definitely seen a lot more wear/fading on the aluminum dash plates before, so I think it probably was garage kept. It's not totally untouched, as I noticed the lift wouldn't go into the highest notch - due to the tie rod being mounted upside down and making contact with the mule assembly. Apparently at some point previously someone had that off. But I'll get it right as time permits.
Any thoughts on the white bracket in the 2nd photo? Looks homemade, based on the quality of the welds, but wasn't sure. Thanks, Dan |

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.
