I bought this 129 for my brother to use for snow removal, but I'm not so sure he wants it now. The PO had cut the frame to accommodate a larger engine (pulling???), so I purchased a 1650 frame to swap around and thought I'd put a hydraulic lift on it, so I bought a 1650 rearend with ported hydro. I have headlights for it, hydraulic package, and 42" front blade. I've already put a rebuilt carb on it. Then ran some sea foam through it, some yellow gunk like sap came out of the carb for 1 day, the next day it fired right up.....with lots of compression and absolutely no smoke after sitting for at least a year!!! Unfortunately, the second regulator on it under the hood (not for sure why the old regulator is still installed in the back with nothing hooked up to it) rolled smoke from the wires that got hot enough to roast a hot dog on---but I'm planning on getting a new harness installed soon and put things back right when I get some time. The pics are of the new frame & rearend still in the bed of my truck and the other pics are of the 129 as is.

The frames are not interchangeable between the QL and the 1x8/9 series due to the differences in engine mounting.

YIKES!!! I didn't realize that. The guy that I bought it off of told me that it was the same frame and I assumed the QL frames were the same wide frames as the one that was on it. He has other frames so maybe I can work out an exchange with him. Thanks for the tip!

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.
