I've got the angle cylinder mounted to the front blade. It's 1.50" bore x 7" stroke. The front quick connects are mounted too. I need to plumb the quick connects to the valve and make a couple hoses for the cylinder and then I'll be able to try it out.

Got the rest of the hydraulics plumbed. The power angle works great. I just need to anchor the lines in a few places and then take them off and shoot some paint on them. I added a set of quick connects on the rear too.

Default Kewlll!

IHinIN;

Your hydraulic installation looks great, better than factory.
I have been gathering parts to do something very similiar on my 100.

I have a question, how did you adjust the pressure on the power steerin pump?

Beautiful work, true craftsmanship;

CadetFarmer

Thanks cadetfarmer.
I adjusted the pressure by shimming the relief valve in the pump. The shims go between the end cap and piston housing. Adding more shims reduces the pressure while removing shims increases pressure. The relief valve is located behind the fitting that the pressure line screws into.

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.
