Cool The 100 gets some options
Well I finally decided to put some options on the 100. You only live once, right?? Got some headlights and fenders for it.

Here is the best before pic I have.



Had to make a couple brackets space the v/r away from the back of the headlights.





The original push start button had been removed when I bought the tractor. So there were 3 holes in the dash. I made a plate to cover them and to position the switch. Eventually I might cut it a little shorter and paint it....maybe.



I wired it directly to the battery with a 10 amp fuse. Might change this later.



You can tell in these pics the fender look a little different. I'm pretty sure they came from different tractors. No biggy. Someone had painted one fender with a brush. So I got some paint stripper and about 6 rounds later I had it off. These were quick rounds, as I didn't want to take any of the original paint off. The first pic is of the fender that was brush painted. No trace of it now.









I got the headlights from joes_outdoor_power on ebay, and a big thanks goes out to jeepchicken5000 for the fenders.

Yeah that looks awsome, your work paid off. 100s with head lights and fenders are my personal favorites. Great job.

Thanks!! No creeper for this machine though. No reason to go slow. For the cool factor, yes, but I use it pull stuff and whatever. I can't justify putting a weak link in the driveline. If I still smoked maybe the lighter, but I'm done with that.

The 2082 is my favorite too. The 100 is my wife's favorite. She said I can't ever sell it. Not that I would. The 100 is getting cooler with every option though.

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.
