Jon - never gave a thought to using the hydros as a reservoir. Good call. Tap in a suction on the drain plug and put a return in the top cover. Easy peasy. AND there's all ready a cooling fan!

Make a solid control rod with tie rod/ or ball socket joints on each end, just like the original linkage from the swashplate to the handle lever. Tie rods were used on it, and are fine. They only have play when they are worn out. You can thread the rod LH on one end, and RH on the other, so it would be adjustable. Use jam nuts. If you don't like the tie rod style, use a ball socket style.

I'll leave it as is until I get it running and see how it works. I agree 100% that a ported pump is the best way to go, and for sure would be less expensive. I won't make any decision until this thing is running and I'm convinced it will work as expected.

Decided to go with Jon's and Double07's recommendations to upgrade the hydro sync link.
Used the 147's (donor parts tractor) hydro control rod and substituted the clevis from the brake/neutral rod for one end. Added some additional 5/16 rod in the middle (to preserve the LH/RH threads already on the donor rod) and reinstalled the new rod. Working on the carb today. (taking a break for some lunch right now). I'm anxious to get this build outside so I can wash some of the grime from the forward hydro, frame and engine. I should have done that before I brought it into the shop.

Looking at the dirty engine while I was rebuilding the carb, I made the bold decision to pull it and put in the rebuilt K301 I have that's been on the shelf since last year. Moved it from the garage to the shop with the orange tractor.
Alvy, if you are listening, I think this is the engine with the crank I got from you. Both of our GSDs, Brutus (blue collar) and Butchie (red collar) are constantly "helping" me. For example, today I found several box end wrenches in the yard. I guess they felt they needed some air or sun or whatever. Can't leave anything on the floor when I'm done working! So I cleaned up the frame a little, spent some time adjusting the steering gear box since is was easily accessible, and set the K301 in place. The K241 I removed has a damaged keyway on the crank where the starter pulley/PTO basket was loose for some time. So I'll have to decide what to do about that later.

It's a cool build for sure, and I can't wait to see some video of it running. Hmmm - I got a couple 149's and a spare K341, maybe ---

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.
