Hello All,
I need a larger diameter Lift Handle Stop (Item 20 in the image) in order to keep my deck from cutting my grass too short. Maybe 1/2" diameter larger. I have the OEM unit that came on the tractor on now but even if I set it to the highest setting it's really still too low for my taste. I'm one that really likes to keep my grass pretty long since it's much healthier for the lawn to do so. Has anyone ever made a larger diameter Lift Handle Stop or is there one that is made that I could purchase? I'm not beyond making my own just thought that if there was one available I'd take advantage?!?!? Kenneth |

I wonder if your rockshaft is a factory oops...My 782D had the arm on the outside welded on wrong, so the stop never touches the cam, and the geometry would be screwy for lifting front-mounted implements. I wonder if the spirol pin hole for the outer lift arm on yours wasn't drilled in the right orientation or something.

I just welded on a piece of steel to the "high" end of the cam to get another inch or so of cut height on my 149. I had the same issue with a 1650 I had. These weren't designed to cut as high as the newer ones you can buy these days.

I noticed I have to put the lift stop cam at a position that puts the lift bar midway between the top notch and the very next notch in order to keep from scalping or cutting too low on my yard. Guess I need to look at getting the 44a deck up as high as I can too.

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.
