Surging
Big Nasty;
If you figure out that surging problem let me in on the cure. I've got an 18hp twin cyl. Briggs with a similar problem, I got disgusted last year and shoved under a tree and gave it the finger and havn't looked at it since. Except to notice that it has the same size tires as my 102 whick needs some. I never drove a B model Mack, I did drive an L200 International semi tractor at one of my Jobs when I was really young, had a steering whell about 3' across and couldn't turn it around on 100 acres.

I haven't been around a Speedex, and what I'm about to say is just second hand knowledge, but I hear they're a bear to work on - very complicated, even more so than a Cub Cadet and a John Deere. I'm not sure I would want one anyhow. Now a Power King or an Economy or Jim Dandy........

I've owned two Speedex tractors. IMHO, they don't compare to a Cub Cadet.

Please Tell Me
Wild Bill;
By larger rear tires do you mean, wider, or taller. You are giving me ideas. Cadet Farmer

Speedex (getting off-topic)
http://www.speedex.com/ http://www.speedextractorinformation.com/ I heard some of the Speedex, depending on transmission, you had to shut off the engine and move the belt to a different pulley groove to obtain a different gear speed. On others, with the Peerless transmission, you didn't have to do that.

Terry, you had to do that, with the two Speedex tractors, I used to own.

cadetfarmer, the rear tires on the Speedex tractors I owned, were 7-16 and 8-16.

Thanks
If this idea works out, I will be posting some very usefull information.
If I understand this correctly, the taller tires on a speedex gives it more traction. Sooo if a Cub Cadet had taller tires, it should then get better traction? Hmmmm! Gotta try something, someone told me once. If anyone has any input on this idea, I would be glad to hear it. Cadet Farmer

as i learned from building a truck motor once once you build on part bigger you expose the weakness in other areas, put in bigger motor and tranny lasted i week replaced that and rear end lasted 8 months.
point is if you increase traction there will be a point that another part could fail. just somthing to consider before you jump in to a project.

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.
