I am excited to see you continue your restore. so far, its looking amazing. You went a lot deeper then I did. I didn't blast down my frame, axel or the hydro unit. You got a great deal on your blasting....I took my to a local guy and had everything blasted minus the items I listed above and it cost me $300. Something the wife wasn't pleased with. But, keep up the good work. I can't wait to see the rest of your progress.

Gijazbo now would the best time to have that blasted engine mount welded. There's a few threads floating around about it. And I'll ruffle some feathers I'm sure by saying..don't use shock absorber rubber cushions to mount the engine. There are a few suppliers of the kits.

Got some more work done, it is slowly resembling a garden tractor again.
Quick question though, has anyone had an internal brake pad pop out. When i pulled the cover off during teardown, there was a little puck that i thought was a magnet (like in some oil pans). Turns out it is a brake pad, but i cant see how it would just squeek out of there ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Looking very nice.
If your guy hasn't started on your fender pan, you may want to reconsider blasting it. Work-Hardening isn't much of an issue on thicker parts such as the frame, but blasting tends to leave the thin stuff a bit brittle. |

Got the chance to do a little more work this weeekend. NEVER AGAIN will i use rattle cans. This was my first tractor job and i thought by the size i would be looking at a few rattle cans, boy... was i wrong. Anywho, just waing on some other little pieces and finishing up some paint.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Next weekend i will slap the rest of the sheet metal on, square up the linkage, and give the carb a bath. I was going to pull the whole engine apart and rebuild, but time is becoming of the essence (plow season). So i will run it until spring and tear it down for a good overhaul. Last thing, has anyone had any luck with that $10.00 seat cushion from colemans. Its probably a unicorn that sells blinker fluid, but maybe someone has some input. http://store.colemans.com/cart/repla...7s3agbmk83g7b1 |

No. I'm guessing that the quality will match the price; very low.

You did a remarkable job rattle-canning those fenders. It's just about impossible to get the paint to flow out fast enough on a piece that big. You are right on about not going that way again. Nothing magical about spraying with HVLP. It's just like a big ol' rattle can that doesn't run outta paint as soon!

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.
