Jonathan,

You could look for a WF electric lift (that may be like looking for hens teeth, as I have only seen a few of them and somewhat pricey) or you could engineer one up for him with an aftermarket electric lift or a winch on a winch bracket mounted on back could also be used for the tiller until something more suitable was found. Just some ideas...maybe some economical ported pump will come up.

theoretically, how difficult would it be to take an un-ported pump and convert it to be ported?

They aren't that hard to find http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cub-Cadet-Wi...item1c3ba9ae31 As you say, they ARE somewhat pricey.

Other than the ported pump here are the other parts that you would need. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cub-cadet-hy...item417bef204d

Jonathan,

It may be easiest to find just the ported hydrostat pump if the 129 isn't equipped with it. Then that way you could do the gasket change also while you are at it. Just a thought

Thanks for the help guys! Still haven't went and looked at the machine, but the current plan is just to buy all the hydraulic stuff, including a ported pump. Already found all of it and have a price. Just need my buddy to confirm that he's good with it, and place the order!

Well, just ordered a ported pump and all the parts to make it hydraulic lift, and a sleeve hitch. Also, found a tiller on C-List and he is going to get it bought. Still has to put the engine together, but it's progressing. If I end up helping him, I'll post pics!

Be sure you get the right kit,because of the PTO saftey switch .The routing of the lines and the mounting of the valve will be different.

Default ported ?
I have a 129. found a blown 149 for $20.00. Took the hydro lift parts off the 149 and put on the 129. the 129 had plugs where the hydro lines were on the 149. everything bolted right up. Works like a dream!

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.
