Cut some surplus off and tacked on a 1/2" id collar and tried it out. I'll have to fiddle with more curve until the ergonomics feel right. It's not intuitive for me, not yet anyway. But it is nice to have one hand free for steering
finally got a min to stare at this pedal, looks good - cant wait to see what u did on the inside

^^^ RI, pics of the inside in post #929.

Added one more battery to the back for weight yesterday and it’s almost enough. Put a little more curve in the pedal and that’s better to.

Ordered some ags.

Over the course of last 2 days: Changed oil, trans filter, did all the lube points, took blades off the deck and sharpened, cleaned underside of deck, replaced and reinstall deck on tractor, put on new air filter, tightened right front motor mount bolt (long story), now awaiting a new deck to PTO belt.

Today I got to test mount an old set of reclaimed discs I've been working on for the past few weeks. New frame and a sleeve hitch mount. Just have to finish welding and paint.

Here’s pics and dimensions of my hood stop.

^^^ That's the one. Thanks Adam!!

I also see in the pics that the bracket between and above the headlights appears to be custom?

Default The Original earning its keep

Last Saturday the grandson got some seat time on the Original thatching the yard for me. He spent about three hours on it and stated that he was still vibrating when he got off. Sunday morning I bagged the thatch with the 782 and GT 46 deck and bagger. Guess i should get a seat cushion for the Original. The old girl never missed a beat. After the rain today I hope to roll the lawn with it. The old girl is so easy to maneuver I just wish it would turn shorter.

I got to try out the retro fitted weight bracket. It now quick connects to the sleeve hitch with one pin. 150 pounds of weights plus another 20 for the bracket. And played in the dirt a bit.

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.
