Without the lift and hoist I wouldn't be doing these things, my days of working with jack stands laying on my back are long over.

We have about 2" of snow on the ground at the moment. I'll post some pics later in the general area.

Good progress pics, guess you gotta have something to do during those snow storms

On the driveshaft; I think it was a great idea by Cub to make them greaseable, however I don't think that anyone outside enthusiasts knew about it, or so it seems. It's gotten to the point of habit whenever a Cyclops comes into the shop to pull the drive shaft, clean it up, and start with fresh grease.

I had one of those HF motorcycle lifts. I tried it with my 1210 and decided it was not stable enough. Scary flexible. It was pretty well maxed out with this on it.
You may want to look into something like this.

The lifts that CubCrazy and I have were made by these guys

Mike found them on C-List at a surplus place in PA, supposedly they came out of the Harley factory.

Got a little more done today. Pressure washed the rear and the frame. It was one nasty creature! Patched up the muffler. The end was rotted out and the PO had about 2 lbs of bird poop weld on it. Just cut it back and welded a flat plate on the end, made a ring to surround it and used an old PTO bushing for the tail pipe, a few minutes with Mr. Miller and that was done. I don't feel like buying a new muffler for this till I know if it's worth saving. Rear is on the work bench ready to be torn down. Got the new PTO bearings and some of the seals for the rear, need to order a couple more things, didn't plan on opening the pump but I noticed a few oil tracks under the seals so while it's out I may as well do it and be done with it, then the wrenching will begin. It's now officially cocktail hour as you can see looking at the top of the frame, LOL.

I have never worked on this style of tractor and i was wondering if you made the cover plate for the rearend ??? It doesn't look like the usual stamped cover for aluminum rearends.

And what are the ladder bar mount looking thingies for ??

Those axle tubes look HUGE !!!!

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.
