Restoring 126
Alright here are the pictures of our 126 ( in my intro post I left out my brother sorry bro). My brother and myself have these tractors together. I got the 129 and found the 126 on Craigslist. But he went to pick it up so now we are working together to restore the 126. We also have a 128 to restore. The 126 is really in better shape than our 128 (which is in pieces and damaged from a fallen tree). And how do you add more photos than just one? I have lots more!
We have removed the front tires and they are original but dry rotted. And one rim is rusted out where it was buried in dirt so we will need a new one. The tire size is 4.80/4.00-8. Will any of our sponsors have one of these rims? And we are in need of more parts but I will post that under "wanted section".

Rich at Patton Acres will prolly have a wheel, but his site is down for maintenance til Dec 20. When you load pics, you can simply add more pics to the same post by clicking the "browse" again.

Update on 126
I have it BAD! Yellow fever! I am currently taking huge doses of buying (found a creeper gear for it), but I seem to be taking a turn for the worst. Rebuilt the starter generator and that helped just a bit. So today my brother and I are starting to take it apart in prep of painting. But that will probably only cause more problems
 Especially in the home department  and right here at Christmas!

I got no idea how it spreads and progresses so readily.

Well I am trying to work off this yellow fever. My brother and myself disassembled the 126 today in prep of sand blasting the frame and transmission. Just one question, what needs to be done to the transmission beside changing the oil? Should we change all gaskets? It is very tight and not slop so there should be no reason for any work there. But I don't want to get it all painted and pretty just to find a leak. And I still can't figure out how to add more than one photo at a time. I have lots more.

How much you do is really up to you. I usually remove the rear cover, drain and replace the hytran, cleaning any sludge from the bottom of the axle case. Remove the C clips on the axle shafts, pull the axles out and replace the seals in the ends of the axle carriers/housings. Others will pull the axle carriers/housings, and drill drain holes to let fluid drain back into the main case, but I don't do that. Put it all back together, wire brush/sand, prime, repaint. On a rusty rear end, you can use a rust converter prior to priming. That's about it.

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.
