I hope it does. I am hoping to be able to show it to my grandmother whom I got it from and let her see what all I have been able to do to it to make it like it was when she first bought it.

Another great day to work on the 128. Man, putting the rear/trans back onto the frame is a PITA by yourself, LOL. Finally got it aligned and bolted in. Then just simply started putting a few things on the frame and ended up with something that resembles a WF .
It's not perfect or for show, it will be a workhorse to be used, therefore I am very happy with how everything has turned out so far, considering this is my first time tearing one completely down and putting it back together.

Looking great Dwyane!

I'd like to ask you a favor, though. If you get a chance could you take a close up pic of the bolt that holds the lift rod to the casting rod on the sleeve hitch. I was test fitting one on the 149 and the bolt head wants to rub the inside of the frame rail. I bought my sleeve hitch off eBay and am thinking the head of the bolt is too thick making it rub (the bolt I got with it is a new replacement, not the original), it also came with a flat and lock washer too..but if you put all those pieces on there, it won't come close to going inside the frame.

Actually believe it or not, somewhere in all the fun of working on the 128 I misplaced the original bolt.. Yesterday while the lift arm back on I had to go thru my bolt bucket and found a bolt that fit and had to use a flatwasher to help keep the bushing in place. I actually have a fair amount of distance between the bolt and frame. But soon as I can I'll try to get a pic for you.

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.
