Put some sharpened blades and cleaned the moldy clumps frumunda the deck on the 2064 today and then mowed the semi damp grass. It will probably be moldy by morning!
Still haven't put any air conditioners in yet.

On Saturday I put a headlight panel in Boo-boo, yesterday, (Sunday), I pulled her out and added 2 hours to the hour meter. Figured out my amp meter works for a second when starting the tractor then it slowly drifts back to 0 after the key is turned to run, the tractor also has the solid motor mounts and shakes like a baby's rattle. Also pulled the exhaust to get a piece of metal out of the muffler, which was making a horrible ringing sound.

Check the timing to make sure it's correct, also you might need to adjust your carb and get a tach to check the rpm at full throttle. If any of these are out of whack they will make the engine shake like crazy.

They really aren't, they don't allow the engine to move independent of the frame, so the whole tractor moves. With the mounts, instead of just the engine shaking, it moves the whole front of the tractor. I need some actual ISO mounts.
Probably doesn't help that the solid mounts are only on the top of the engine cradle.

So what's between the engine mount and frame?

There's nothing, from what I've seen. Might be a washer or two, but I doubt that. The tractor's got 942 hours on it, I don't think the engine mounts would still be alive.

To clarify: There's nothing between the engine cradle and frame.

If that's the case then your driveshaft is running way out of alignment which is probably causing a lot of wear and vibration in the drive line.

Welp. I'd better get some ISO mounts before my driveshaft rips the flex coupling to smithereens.

I wouldn't be surprised if the coupler on the engine has the ball bushing blown out of it. The part number for the coupler is 903-0204

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.
