nice haul! my 125 has the same brake/shift lever issue. I know how to fix it, just haven't had the chance yet. if you take the battery out and follow the rod the shift lever is attached to, you'll find a wedge-shaped piece and pin sticking through the shaft. this just needs some lubrication. it's designed to cancel the shifter back to Neutral when you step on the brake, but if there's no lube, it'll bind. It's easiest to find if you move the brake pedal around while you're looking. some wd-40 will do the job, I'm going to hit it with that and maybe some white grease too. Hope this helps, and hope you have a blast with it!

I cant wait for the snow to start flying so I can go out and play and push it around. I also cant wait to try out my CQ-36 snow thrower for the first time!

When your plowing at a plow day a hydro is nice when your stuck behind a off topic tractor. Cub123 has done a many furrows with his 123.

Congrats on the 123 score! I used to have one and kinda regret getting rid of it. Looks like you got tons of parts as well.

Thanks, Yes... I think I will have this one for a while... I gotta figure out why she is smoking... It only smokes out of the muffler when it increase throttle and a little bit of smoke seems to come out of the oil breather... No clue. I haven't opened up a Kohler before and am worried about getting in too deep...

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.
