Default All Done!
well, only 6-7 months behind schedule, but it's finally finished! took the 125 for it's first post-rebuild test drive today, even though the weather was less than agreeable. everything worked great! hydro lift was nice and smooth, hydro tranny climbed steep hills without missing a beat, and the engine purred happily. snapped some pictures of the finished product.







plus a nice profile shot. drglinski, I've got the hood ornament on the right way round!



It's come a long way from when I first bought it. here's how it used to look:







now to get the qa-42a ready for winter! free up some rusted bolts, lube what needs it, make some skis for it to help avoid the rocks in the driveway, and we're ready for snow! I have the 42 blade ready as a backup.

Looks really nice cadzag, are all of those lights functional or just the rear? Love the hydraulic lift, I got one on my 123 and they work awesome. Must be a good feeling, its quality not quantity right!

Now what you need is to go get yourself some of the door edge guard and put on the front of the hood so it doesn't chip the paint when you open the hood!

Looks great. Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done.

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.
