Default Adding a Hydraulic Lift to a 129

Well, today, I split the tractor to install a 1650 rearend that already had a ported pump. Normally, I like to keep things as original as possible but time wasn't on my side and it was quicker just to swap transmissions rather than swap hydro pumps. Here are some pics...

The only problem with switching everything is you're losing the serial number of the 129. If you just switch the pump no one will ever know the difference. It's a little more involved but if it were me I'd try and keep the serial number original.

I know, and I contemplated that several times. The rearend is out of a 1650 and I have three 129's. This one that I'm converting over is going to my brother and I told him if he ever decides to get rid of it then I will buy it back from him. So, since it is still in the family, I can always put it on a 129 rearend if I ever want---I may get rid of another 129, but I will keep one for myself. It wasn't a real easy decision, but I just have too much on my plate at this time and very little time to do the extra work. I'm usually one of the guys on here who wants to see things left original, too----that's the irony of the situation.

Thanks for the kind comments fellas.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
