109 refurbishment
Well I've been lurking(and learning) here for a while, thought it was time to contribute a little. This is a first refurb of a cub for me so I'll most likely be stumbling thru it. I am sure the good folks here Will keep me on the straight and narrow.
 Anyhow here is what I started with:    A couple of things needing attention I noticed right away:  The VR was looking rather nasty so a new one was purchased,and below the PTO turnbuckle was stripped on one end(That will receive attn. later)  More to follow.... P.S. The timestamp on my camera is wrong and I need a teen to set it for me! LOL

Next up
Next came the fenders:
 The battery box was in bad shape from what looks to have been a leaky battery.  bottom view:  It got a new bottom welded in:   I've also done a little sanding on it:   More to come...

Next up
Next I split the tractor:
  Ran into another needed repair:  The left side front mounting bracket was broke, but the right side was ok.  I believe I have located another bracket from one of the fine members here. I have several parts in my electrolysis tank now being derusted:  And that's where I am on it as of today, more later....

Excellent start. You had a good cub to start with. That helps a lot. I have got to read on the electrolysis thing and get one set up, so I can get some of the model 73 tins and stuff cleaned up for priming and painting.

 It is a sooooo much easier way to prep your parts than sanding or sandblasting! I just wish I had a tank big enough to dip fenders and hoods in.

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.
