Spent a while in the shop while it rained in S.E. Wisconsin today, mounted the QA-42a on the 149. First time using the "quick attach", man that was much easier than bolting the thrower on the 102! The 149 is pretty beat up from the half-A$$'d things the previous owners did, and man is that hydro-lift nice.
Next up, I need to make some half-a$$'d mods myself to get the head/taillights working, next summer I think I will replace the wireharness. The PO had all kinds of changes to the wiring for the lights including a fried switch and a separate toggle switch for the tail lights. I also replace the beat up 4 link chains with the set of 2 links that I had on the 102, for some reason they "crimped" the links on the old chains so I needed to cut a link on one side to get the old one off. Now its time for a homebrew and some football. |

My plow is on my 147 and I'm going to look at a snowblower tomorrow for my 125. I have a skidsteer so, the cubs are used on the smaller storms. I'm also doing a restoration on a 129 that will have a snowplow, york rake and rear scraper blade.

I just found out that I am going to be even less ready for snow. I lost poout on the deal that I thought I had on a snowthrower for the 149. I have a blade, but I'd like to have both. Anybody near lower NY want to trade a QA36 for a QA36/42A?

I am almost ready for snow. I got my blade blasted and painted, got chains, have a friend looking for some wheel weights at a tractor show in the next state.
I am now looking for some new front tires. I currently have some bald multi-ribbed tires that must be replaced. 16-6.5-8. Any suggestions? I also have two 4.80-8 tires and rims with some good tread, but the rims are shot - the inside bearing area for the race are wallowed out on both rims, but may be OK for the winter. I am thinking that the narrow tires may be better in snow. I could install a bearing and tig weld the race to the worn-out wheel. The PO used a hose clamp around the bearing surface on the wheel to hold the bearing in place. Any recommendations?

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.
