Default One last question

After getting everything back together and taking it for a "High Speed" spin I noticed that it was a little darty. Does anyone know what the toe in should be? Right now I have it set to both wheels straight ahead and it isn't an issue when in the grass but it should track better on the road. Thanks

Default Final pictures of the conversion

Here are a couple of pics from the final reassembly. Not too much to see but the ram. As you can see from the PS valve the lines have to be put on in an order so that you can get to the last nut without interference.

Default Parts question

Now that the heavy work is done I need to replace the two ball joints on the PS ram. Does anyone know the size rather than the part number? I looked them up on the CC parts site but they just give the number and not the size and thread count. Thanks

You could take one off and compare it to a bolt.
Most times heim joints are a fine thread, but not always.
A quick visual comparison would tell you if it is a fine thread.
I'm not familar with your Cyl. and some are L.handed, again a visual would tell that.

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.
