Default 129 into a 128
I have been wanting to find a 128. I have a chance to buy a 129 and possibly turn it into a 128. I know it will need a clutch and a new tunnel cover, but my concern is will the clutch pedal work the same as the brake and possibly anything else?

You wil also need a gear drive tranny...You need to study the parts lookup on the cub cadet web page,That will help you out a lot.

It'd be easier just to wait for a 128 to come along. By the time you buy all of the parts that are different, you could just about buy another tractor.

Thanks guys, I was talking about everything but the obvious. I already have the rearend, all I need is the clutch, drive shaft, and tunnel cover. Now back to the question I originally asked, will the clutch pedal still work?

I believe the pedal is the same, you just might need the piece where it hooks up under the frame. You could check a parts lookup or I could look at my 149 and 108 this weekend.

If you are going to mow with this tractor. I would stick with the hydro. To much shifting gears in a gear drive and thats not fun. you will also need the piece that goes on the clutch/brake pedal to acttuate the clutch. They are not the same on the hydros and gear drives and are a pain to put on.

I wanted a plow, tiller and snowblower tractor. I want to put a creeper on and use it for an implement tractor more than anything. Thanks guys

If you want a snowthrower tractor, you want a hydro. I'm a gear drive guy, but throwing snow with a gear drive isn't much fun. I did it once...never again.

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.
