The magical 1250 twins' adventure
Hey y'all! I've decided to start a page documenting the magical adventures of the 1250 twins: Yogi, a 1978 with a hydraulic lift (My brother's), and Boo-boo, a 1974 (My tractor). They've probably already had some interesting adventures already before we got them, but we're going to be documenting the struggle of making these two PITA's look nice.
This is going to be expensive, isn't it?

Yesterday my brother threw the tire back on his 1250 and pulled both out. I don't have the picture but seeing the boys next to each other is cinematic.
I think I feel a tear coming on and hear the national anthem in the background of the picture.

So yesterday we did some work on the twins. I finished putting my weights on Yogi after adding tubes (for adding WW fluid and because the sidewalls leak.) Also put my tunnel cover back on and a few small things. I discovered there's a bolt missing that holds the engine to the cradles so I'll have to find one. Eventually I want to pull the engine and deep clean the frame and engine to make it easier to do the cradle mod. I'll let my brother tell ya what he did to BooBoo.

Yesterday I pulled my tractor out and added 2 more hours onto the hour meter, pulled the exhaust off to get a piece of metal out of the muffler that was creating an obnoxious ringing sound, learned that my amp meter works for a second after starting the tractor then slowly drifts back to 0, adjusted my hood after putting a headlight panel in, and helped my brother put the 124 into the shed.

Isn't it possible your ammeter is working correctly? After using starting current, charges for a moment and then tapers off? My 1650 does basically the same.

Am I the only one who thinks that naming the tractors is weird......
 Guys, that's weird. Yeah.... that's a normal ammeter thing. You used the battery to start the tractor, then started it. Only charges what needs charged. Should move toward center the longer it runs.

They guys I help farm named one of their tractors. But, it has a story behind it... and I didn't use the name when I referred to the 1456. But "viking" is kind of funny, given how it looks, lol.

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.
