Had a good Cub day today. I started by cleaning up the Cub Cave and getting things back in order. I got the CI grille for my nephew's 73 wire brushed and primered. I also got the old tires and tubes off of the front rims and wire brushed them and got them into some primer. Gave Big Red a hose down with the air hose then cleaned and waxed her up a bit. I did notice a bit of oil surrounding the left rear ISO mount. It seemed to be coming from the dipstick area. This might be why that old mount was degraded so bad. I may have to order a new dipstick so that it seals better unless someone has a good BTDT remedy.

Good to hear! Keep'em running! Did you by chance have a problem pushing the valvestem through the rimhole? I was trying to do just that so I can get my new tri-rib's on, when the valvestem looks too swollen to make it past the rimhole. Was trying to save the tire and tube for the # 2 IH cart, but I maybe out of luck. I'll have to resort to destroying the tube I guess and not save myself 10 bucks. thanks, John

I didn't put anything back on the rims, but I did have to use a hammer to knock one of the tube valve stems down and out so I could get the tube off. You may need to get one of those valve stem pullers from a local car parts store and pull it up a bit to get it thru enough. Just a thought.

Default Good cub day

Had a bad bearing on the mule drive of the 123. Took it off and wandered around our local farm supply store and found the bearings and bought two (US made, no less). Bolted right in and ran nice and quiet. Greased the front hubs and the deck bearings and it should be good to go.

Also got the governor working on the "O" and scooted around the yard on it some.

It was a good cub day!
John

Thanks DX3! Just a little clean up for the show and call it good. Painted the grill and footrests. Scrubed the screen, footrests still drying.

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.
