"metal on the wheels".............nice new way of putting it. I like it. Lew it's getting cold up there, why not come down to get warm and bring that blade with you. I "need" one for my new 108.

It's great to live in an area with an abundance of cub cadets!!! Great find on the goodies and a solid tractor. I'd be happy just to find the WF 3 point for a good deal, let alone everything else.

Nice find. I like the 149. Keeper?

darkminion_17 11-23-2013 06:23 PM

Nope!!!
Let me know how your doing you have my #

Flatbedford 11-23-2013 08:14 PM

I already have 2 149s and one is for sale. Just curious if this would make it to the permanent collection or not. I think the 149 is, feature for feature, one of the best Cubs out there. The only shortcoming I can think of is no dual circuit hydraulics.

darkminion_17 12-01-2013 06:22 PM

Well I worked on the 149 on and off the past couple of days,replaced the drive shaft,rag joint and coupler as a 1/4" bolt was used,then replaced with the correct parts.
I stuck on a S/G,then it needed a solenoid and the key switch was toast,but it now runs and drives very well .

We even have lights.
whoopee

Cubcrazy 12-01-2013 06:24 PM

Good to hear Lew! Now time for the auction block!

Good looking 149, Lew!

J-Mech 12-04-2013 10:56 PM

Looks way better Lew!

I was looking at the before and after pics..... something is different about the rear tires, but I can't quite figure out what... :bigthink:
