Default 122 Major Restoration

I finally decided to go for it. My son and I took it down to just about nothing in about an hour. The plan, as of today, is to sand, prime, and repaint. The engine runs strong, so that's not on the to-do list for now. I have a few micro-leaks (not dripping on the floor, but stays oily). The governor shaft leaks that I know of. The input seal on the creeper gear is another area I need to address.
I also have a few of my "custom" parts to make / add.
So....here goes. Step #1 tear-down.

My garage is under siege. I found some "wear" marks under the front axle.

It's a labor of love. I love that they are laboring.

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.
