So, this is how it starts?
So one front tire is cracked from sittin flat still has green grass in the crack, so I got 2 new front tires. Might as well paint the wheels, got the steering box off & cleaned up, got the nice bearing kit coming, so I put some paint on that too. Used Jim's press to straighten the side steering plate. Pulled the front axle to fix the slop. Painted the nose piece and grille. Looking for Ag's...
All I wanted to do was use it to tote wood to the house...THIS winter too...

The trick to avoid this plague is never make a repair all clean and fresh paint.
Leave it as grungy as it was. Otherwise that shiny new clean and fresh paint area makes your brain push you to do the same to the rest of the tractor.

That was my initial intention, double07, but somehow I bought some paint along the way. The front tires held air, but the green grass growing in the cracks on the right tire just really bugged me, then I had to paint the wheels...shoulda just sprayed Roundup on the tire I guess.
Anyone know where to find the really short valve stems? All my guys carry is 1 1/4".

Yellow fever is a serious condition, and should be treated as such. While in its early stages, it CAN be treated. Simply consult a professional spouse and inform her of your symptoms; desire to spend money on fixing an old machine, more and more time spent in the garage away from the family, irrational rationalizations, and whatever else you are feeling. I URGE you to seek help immediately!
If left untreated, this condition will lead to hours scouring Craigslist, eBay, local ads, and more in a nearly futile attempt to find what's known as a "Lew" deal (Lew deal: finding valuable items for unreasonably "lew" prices. This condition is often theorized to be partially due to intimidation of the seller by the buyer to get the desired price.). If allowed to continue, you will soon find your garage and even worse, your yard filled and littered with Cub Cadet's and related paraphernalia. The condition has even been known to worsen and develop into red fever, orange fever, or worst of them all, green fever. If caught, green fever is considered untreatable. Those known to be infected with the green fever are frequently shunned from society, being left to toil in obscurity with other infected individuals. So again, please, PLEASE, for the good of your family and your own well being, get help immediately!! That being said, I've got a heck of deal on a CI front axle I can sell you. Maybe you'd be interested in a fender pan from a 147? Come on man, don't leave me hanging!!

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.
