mounts
 

DX3,
Yes I see, and thanks for posting these. Properly designed mounts of the correct stiffness are essential in getting the correct vibration absorption and support for the engine and drive line. The company that I work for has been making elastomeric mounts for 80 years for applications across a wide variety of equipment and machinery.
We also have market erosion due to knock off rubber parts that are much lower price but do not have the performance of our product. We do not make these Cub mounts but do make some similar parts.
I have bought a lot of Cub parts over the years and I know that they make a good buck on the mark up. But have always been satisfied with the quality!
The price for a mount set at $20 is about what I would have expected from a CUB dealer.
Thanks again for taking the time to post the nice clear shot.

Regards,
Chris

DX3 and Larry64......I put those on my 1450 and they work great! Just remember to torque them correctly.

Wheel Horse used a similar set up for their late 70's tractors, i.e. C-121, C-141, etc. I had a 1979 C-141 that I rebuilt the K-321 and I replaced the engine mounts. It was about $85 for the set, so the prices from the Cub dealer is similar to what you will see from Toro for the Wheel Horses.

i installed the polyurethane (sp?) bushings in my 1450 and they will vibrate your teeth, eyeballs, and what have ya to death. BUT my wife seems to enjoy HER 1450 the way it is??????? can't figure out why :bigthink: though :biggrin2.gif: but the 1200 has the nice soft originals back in place. they were in very good shape. jeff

Never thught about that, kinda tough to get her off the tractor ha? No more "seat" time for you.

:biggrin2.gif: nope!!!!!
