cub 73 info
 

Hello, I am probally picking up a cub 73 and wanted to know a few things. What fenders work with it? will the spring assist work with this tractor? Also, If I wanted to retrofit a creeper is this a straight forward swap?

You need 70/100, 71, 72, 73 fenders. The NF spring assist will fit. The creeper is pretty straightforward. You just have to split the tractor and shorten the driveshaft. You may as well go through the clutch while you're in there.

thanks
 

thanks matt, the clutch on this machine is actually new. it has no fenders or spring assist. I am going to buy it beause it has a rebuilt motor, steering, clutch and is in very good condition. I just want to add some goodies to it

Jason,
The only thing a creeper is for in a gear drive is blowing snow or tilling. If your not doing any of the after mentioned, I would skip it.
Unless it becomes a trailer Queen loaded with options,but dirt, it's a bad thing for it....

I'd like to get my hands on a 73 too!! Can't wait to see some pics of it. Here's a link to some info and a sweet looking 73 with dualies:beerchug:

That is a nice one !!! I saw that the other day !!! freaking sweet !!!!

this is it
 

I had the owner send me a pic of it. This is what he had. It needs a bath and some touch up. It has a 38" deck and headlights. Fresh engine rebuild 30 over and a redone clutch. He is a small engine repair guy and has went over the whole machine. It needs some cosmetics but mechanically it's all there.
