Hello all long time no post, but visit almost daily.

Before i get started i would like to thank the entire site for all the knowledge, hints, tips, tricks, and support. I would have been lost with out the guidance. I would also like to thank the sponsors, whom with out i would still be tracking down parts. :beerchug:

To keep things short, my motor blew its front main seal, keeping the grass down at the family farm. With plenty of other tractors in reserve I made the decision that it was time to do what i could to make this tractor last as long as possible.

The long and short of it. Took it 80%~ apart all parts were base coat and at least 2 coats of clear. Fixed and replaced every thing i could afford. Motor is a 10+ rebuild, carb rebuilt, new wiring harness, new decals, and many other things i might care to forget about. It has been a trial and great learning experience.

Once again i cant express my appreciation and admiration for all the help i received from Only cub cadets members and sponsors. And now the goodies. (sorry for some blurry camera phone shots)
