What did you do with your Cub Today?

Split the 129 to replace a bad cork gasket and replaced the trunnion springs and pins. I pulled the top cover plate off and replaced the gasket since it was seeping around one corner. Refilling the rearend is much quicker with the top cover off. Got the rearend back in. I'll get the fenders and seat back on tomorrow.

Good looking 129

The 129 looks great, Adam!!!

I got the 782 out to fill a few holes in the driveway and cover some muddy spots. I also wanted to see how the ags did on the front. I really like them!! Thanks sawdustdad for your opinion!

Thanks guys!
I got the 129 back together and fingers crossed, no more leaks.

Now, I need to figure out why it doesn't seem to be charging. I recently rebuilt the S/G so I'll test it first and if it checks out I'll replace the voltage regulator. All of the wiring is new and grounds checked good. The ammeter needle bounces around like crazy so I wired around the gauge to eliminate it as the culprit. I pulled the cover off the V/R and the contacts don't move while it's running. Not sure if that's because the regulator is bad or the S/G is not working.

Travis, the 782 looks good with the blade and box scraper on. Do they both raise and lower together or is the rear lift somehow independent?

Thanks Adam, they both work together for now. Today I had the front blade locked up with the cam on the right side. Maybe one day I will separate them. I will try to

I just tried out the Xtreme 54" sleeve hitch blade. It did a good job leveling out the wider holes on the driveway. It would have done better if the ground was drier, but I don't think that will happen until next summer the way things are looking.

I got the drawbar weight box free with the 122 I bought. He also gave me a homemade lead weight that fits inside. I just took the bathroom scale out and it weighs in at 104 lbs. I think that would be a bit much for the blade, hence the old bar weights I have in it. If there was more gravel on the driveway, I don't think any extra weight would be necessary.

Pushing a bit of snow for the first time this year. Its quite obvious I need to get some more weight on the back of this rig...good thing the snow was really light and powdery.
