Default 1572 - a rebirth

I have a Cub in the shop that belongs to CubDieselFan. Greg and I have done a couple of deals that worked to the mutual satisfaction of both of us. Greg bought my 782DT a while back and I took a 1782 and a 1772 in trade. You've probably seen my posts on both of those projects. During my last trip south, Greg met me along I81 at the TN border and delivered his favorite tractor, a 1572, so that I could bring it back to my shop for the winter and freshen things up a bit. On my way back home I got stuck in Roanoke for a couple days due to freezing rain. The first picture of the project is of the Cubsickle 1572 headed for NY. Poor thing is a deep south tractor and looks a little upset.

After getting home to NY and unloading the truck, the 1572 had a chance to thaw out in the shop for a few days before a complete tear down. Here's were we are now. The chassis had a nice bath and then the remaining components were removed.

I spent a few days on the Kubota D600 diesel. All the hoses and belts were replaced along with the water pump and thermostat. I also did the glow plug upgrade installing the fast NGK glow plugs and a relay to feed direct battery voltage to the buss for the glow plugs. Next up was to install a new starter. Greg elected to use a NOS genuine Kubota starter he had in stock rather than go with a gear reduction unit. The fan shaft had some bearings that were loose and noisy, so they were replaced. While I had the engine out I pulled the valve cover and adjusted the valves. With almost 1300 hours showing on the clock, the exhaust valves were quite loose. After a general check over, the engine got a coat of genuine Kubota green blue (Kubota's name for it) engine paint. Since the little 'Bota lives on a "skid" in the front of the 1572, it got mounted back in its frame with all the accessories mounted up. Here is the power pod all ready to go back in the 1572.

I told Greg I would touch up the frame under the engine while it was out, so after some sanding and a good cleaning lacquer thinner, this is where we are at now. I'm using the Valspar Tractor and Implement spray cans, part #5339-25. The color match to the original paint is dam near perfect. I would recommend this paint for anyone doing their Cub. It sprays on evenly, covers well, and has a great shine. It also drys fairly quickly without any obnoxious odor. Don't misunderstand, it smells like paint, but not foul like that Majic brand paint from TSC.

Really nice work.

How much does that "skid" with the D600 and all accessories weigh?

Oak - the Kubota paint I used is # 70000-00197 It's in a rattle can. I found it on Ebay this time, but Messick's and Kumar Bros carry it also.

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.
