Can't help with your hydraulic queston, but on a slightly more positve note, I dont think that the road rash is worse than the tractors 'sitting age' It looks very weathered. I tried to sound positive... They are all worth putting some work into. Worth more than spending tons of money on brand new junk.

It's worth every penny... If you are talking dual (front ports/lift) it can be pricey unless you come across a great deal. But single (deck/rear) lift is not bad at all. You'll need a different rock shaft but if your spirol pins come out easy it is a piece of cake to convert it..

Personally, for mowing, I prefer to have a manual lift. I don't much faith in the lift stop on the hydraulic lift ones. If it were my machine, I think I would stick with the manual lift and add a helper spring. The spring makes a big difference.

Last summer I bought a complete 1211 with hydraulic lift and a blown Kohler for $140. It's been the perfect parts source for my 882D.

You could easily spend $140 on ebay for just a couple of parts.

Contact our site sponsers or place an ad in the wanted section of the site. You'll have better results doing those two things.

I'm glad you've got your wiring figured out!

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.
