Rebuilding my 100
 

Hey everyone! Its fun to see everyone else's pictures of them restoring or rebuilding their Cubs, so I figured I'd follow suit. Being the cold is here to stay, I figured now was a good time to do it. I also needed a guinea pig to learn how to do bodywork & paint before I moved onto my hot rod so I didn't make that any worse. The Cub seemed like a good choice. Its due for a good go-thru anyways. Besides the rebuilding aspect, I'm not sure what I really want to do with it. Would like to split the clutch & brakes so they have individual pedals & maybe a hyd. system like Adam (IHinIN) has on his 100. Also thought about MFWD as well. Here's what I started with:

Nice 100! That muffler needs to be braced to one of the head bolts so it doesn't break off the exhaust port on the engine.

Nice 100, I don't think you can split the brakes because it has the internal type. Keep us posted with lotsa pics on the rebuild.:beerchug:

i believe he means seperate the braking action from the clutch.

great looking 100! i agree with Matt, the stack needs to be braced. otherwise it will be a costly repair!

Sharp 100, you got there! :ThumbsUp:

Sorry Oak. Nick is correct... Would like to separate the clutch & brake so each are individual.

Here's the thread I started about separating the pedals. If you have any questions feel free to ask. http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ead.php?t=1746

IHinIN, that is a great link and nice work. This may be a dumb question but, what is the purpose of spliting the pedals?

Thanks Oak. I split the pedals just so it's more like a real tractor.

No worries Oak. My primary reason is that it be used as a parking brake while the engine is running. Splitting the clutch & brake functions would allow the brake to be engaged without putting pressure on any of the clutch parts.
