1572 Front Hydro Case Mounts Broken
 
2 Attachment(s)
I started down the path of getting the wobble out of the driveshaft when I noticed both front Hydro mounts (to the frame) are busted. I have reached out to Xtreme Motorworks for their Rear Axle Reinforcement Brace kit. I hope they ship to Canada!

Unfortunately that happened to many of them. Hopefully the rear axle bolts through the frame are in good shape. Those brackets will make it feel like a whole new machine!:beerchug:

Yes, As Steve said... those brackets will stiffen the whole tractor and make it feel like a new machine!:beerchug::beerchug:

Thx to Steve and Jay for the verification. Looking forward to lets twist and vibration

I just had to do that to mine a couple days ago. Only one boss was fractured on each side, so it wasn't wobbling, but it did stiffen the rear end a bit. The Cub design is utterly lacking in torsional strength. Had to buy some 4 1/2" bolts to get the hitch back on there, but in the end I'm pleased. Now if there were something to stiffen the front end up...

If for some reason they don't, I'll help out.

If there are any Canadian members near the border who could help with shipping ( bring it across the border and reship ), that would save some serious money.

Use a big slingshot like the Mexicans.:biggrin2:

Jeff, thx for the information. Once I get the rear end solid again, we'll get back to making the driveshaft run true.
