Default 126

Hey guys I have been goin to pulls for a while and just got my first mower its a 126(posted earlier and thought it was a 128 because of the numbers but the guys swears it a 126 but I havent picked it up yet to see) with a 12 hp kohler on it the only thing supposed to be wrong with it is the gear stick is broke so he is including another 126 frame and rear end for parts so my question is I really wanted to pull a 14 or 16 hp but got a good deal on this 12 so what all do yall recomend to do to it it is bone stock right now.

If the machine you found is in deed a 126, please don't use it to pull with. The 126 is the 3rd most rare cub. I'm sure someone on here would trade you another gear drive to get that machine. Out of respect for the hobby, find another machine to use to tractor pull with. I have nothing against tractor pulling. Or using cubs to do it with, but the rarity of that machine...... it really should be preserved.

It's best to find a club and get a set of rules before coming here to ask about mods. Clubs have different rules and it is very easy to spend a lot of money building a tractor only to find out it does not fit in a class.

Pretty rare..... Here's the list:
http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=23710

Now, you figure how many they made, how many have been junked, how many are just lost (sitting in barns, fence rows, the back of a junk yard) and I'd say there are probably around half of them left. Not really very many. If it was a car, you'd be sitting on a fortune!

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.
