Since I fixed up 149#2 a bit, I figured it was time for a family portrait.

My 149 purchased last fall
Here it was...
Last fall I changed oil, cleaned cylinder carbon, and replaced muffler. During the winter, my drive rod pins failed, and I did a quick repair (everything is worn out, holes elongated, etc)). I am in the middle of some other repairs now. It started with trying to tighten the starter generator tension bracket loose on engine. I could not tighten it, and required removal of the front PTO for access. I am now gong all out... Front wheel bearings (one had failed), brake relining (done), new 23X8.5-12 BKT Trencher tires from GCT, front PTO repair (bearing was bad, and one of the three throwout levers, screw and spring was missing) , complete new drive parts engine to hydro (drive shaft, hub, coupler, flex disc, and pins), carburetor rebuild including throttle shaft/bushing replacement (done), plug & points replacement (done), Hydro fluid and filter change, and lots of cleaning, lub, and paint of course. I will post more when I complete. Not a restoration, but more of a partial rebuild I would say. Many thanks to all the members that made so much of my work easier with the info I drew from here over the past few months! I purchased the tractor really sight unseen for $500 with cab, snow thrower, chains, a set of 23X10.5-12 on rims (8.5's on tractor), and a blade (see picture). With that price, I decided I can invest more in some reliability. Here are some pics... Eric of the Green Mountains

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.
