Default 125 Frame question
On the front of a 125 how many of the 3 holes are supposed to have nuts welded inside of them? Mine is missing at least the rear one on the R.H. side. But, is the front hole supposed to have a nut inside too?

Jonathan there is not suppose to be a nut on the backside of the front hoile.
At least my 125 doesn't have nuts on the backside.

Thanks Kelly! I didn't think it was.... but wanted to make sure. It's the only narrow frame with the quick mount I have, so didn't have another to look at.

Attachment 41355
This is correct ( your bottom picture), going from front to back--plain hole, nut welded to inside and frankenstein bolt.

I notice your frame has the cutout for getting at the screws for the points cover,now the 4 I have do not have this.How about yours Jeff?
I know the 1x6-1x7 ones have that cut out.Was it added to the later ones?Johnathan,do you pull up to release the hydro or push down?

Neither of my 125's have them. One is spring '68 build and I haven't run the numbers on the one I got from you yet.

Here's the pics of the modified hydro release. From the hole in the side of the frame where the grommet is, I'd say you used to push down on it.

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.
