Now that the 100 is done time to get back to the Original. Pulled the engine and clutch and the pedestal. Will let the pedestal sit in the electrolysis tub. for a few days.

A day and a half in the electrolysis tub and about 30 minutes of cleanup by hand. Not the quickest process but effective. Really happy that unlike the pedestal on my 100 that if I recall correctly had 7 extra holes that I needed to weld, there has not been any modifications done to this one.

Very nice.

Did the electrolysis process loosen the paint too?

Yes takes all the paint off. Most was loose in the tub then I used a pressure washer to take most of the rest off. The rest came off easily with 120 sand paper using almost no effort.

Yes. here is a link for a good tutorial. It works best if you have good sacrificial metals. Since I just replaced the badly worn out mower deck blades on my 100, I used the old one and they have a lot of surface area and worked really well.

Anyone have any suggestions about a replacement grip for the lift handle?

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.
