Default Electric Lift on a 129

I finally found a COMPLETE setup for my 129. Even has the float lockout pin.

Took all of 30 minutes to install. I still have to remove the handle from the side of the tractor, and install the bracket.

I really like the electric lift, I was in some tall grass today and it was much easier to raise and lower the deck this way. I have decided to leave the manuel lift arm on the side. With the handle locked in float it works fine, and I can tell how high the deck is as well. And where the discharge shoot get plugged up, it makes it easier to shake the deck up and down to remove the grass.

Also somebody had added a couple of bolts through the top of the deck where the cast iron piece goes and it was hitting the lift assembly. I removed those and the deck raises much higher now.

As the older I get, the more I appreciate the Hydraulic Lift on my Cubs as opposed to the "armstrong" method.

Did you say you're not using the rockshaft? I'm looking for a rockshaft. Let me know if you want to sell it.

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.
