Default Hardware Guide?
I must have miss placed the bolts that I need to re-attach the tunnel cover to my 108. Anyone know the size I should go and buy?

On another note, has anyone put together a hardware guide for replacing all the hardware on a tractor? Is this something we might all work together and create as a loving family Maybe something like this....

Item --- Size --- Model(s)

I'm sure most of these parts are the same across a lot of tractors so we could put something together that could help all of us out.

I always run a tap into the holes (cover and frame) then install 1/4X20 bolts.

THAT will hold them!!

I got tired of dealing with rusty oversized holes.

The tunnel cover bolts are a odd size. They are #12-24 x 3/8".

Locally they are a tad hard to find. So.....I got upset with this whole fiasco, and I drilled & tapped mine for 1/4-20 x 1/2". Problem solved. A whole lot easier to find. Stainless Steel Hex or Phillips head suit me well.

I replaced every bolt, washer and lock washer with stainless, Unless you "know a guy" I wouldn't go that route but it sure does look good...

Hmmm this explains why the 1/4-20 bolts I tried to put in didn't work, thanks for the good post!

So is that what you guys do with most of the bolts on these tractor's? Drill and tap as many of the ones you can to 1/4x20? That really does make a lot of sense. How much of the tractor can you convert over and are there many areas that still need strange sizes?

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.
