I leave the gnats in there, in a thousand years when my 1450 finally quits running, somebody can get the gnat DNA to recreate them!!

Well, it's been a while since I have posted some updates on the 982, but I did manage to get some parts painted today. Yesterday, I cleaned up the brake pads, all of the hydraulic lift mounts and cylinder, and all of the rockshafts. Shot a coat of primer on them this morning. Checked them tonight, and they came out pretty well. I had enough paint left in the gun to shoot primer on the tunnel cover, so I pulled it in and completed it.









I should have taken some shots of the frame put together, but I didn't get to it. Once these get the red paint, they will be installed on the frame and the whole thing will get a coat of red with hardener. Following this, the dash tower, front grille, panels, hood, and fender panels will be painted individually and added to the tractor. I am currently looking at trying to pick up some V61s for the front and find some decent tires for the back - I have seen the Carlisles, but does anyone have any suggestions on other types?

I like carlisle tru power ags. I've had good performances from them and I have 2 different sizes. They also look cool and are made in the USA. They even have an American flag molded on the sidewall

I was thinking about something other than the Carlisles, but with the American flag on the side and being made in the good 'ole USA, I think my dad would be ashamed of me if I passed those up!

Does anybody know where to find bearings for the front wheels? I am going to dismantle them and re-do them, new tires, paint, valve stems, might as well do bearings.

Check out Miller tire online store thye have a good selection there. THe bearing can be found at your dealer or take your old bearing to a bearing supply house and get them cheap. I always ask for USA made bearings.

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.
