86 taillights
What's everyone use for taillights on 1x8/9 & QL tractors? I was thinking 82 series tails or truck lite model 18s, but I didn't realize I'd have to drill through the fender. Is there anything low profile that's a flush mount ? I'm just concerned about my fenders rusting if I drill them. Anybody have a good source for a headlight switch? Thanks

If you drill a hole just put a little grease or never seize on the bare metal and the will keep it from rusting. I used lights from tractor supply for mine and they look great and I think there brighter than the headlights.

I used LEDs from Grote on mine, lined up exactly with existing mounting holes but had to drill the center hole to clear the raised backside, they are Grote #47732.

I looked at the 47732s too, are they bright? How thick is the assy, could it get knocked off easily? Or broken?

They are plenty bright, and are not much thicker than the OE reflector. Very low amp draw.

I use these from Harbor Freight. The price is right and no need to drill any additional holes. I have also seen the lens caps at various tractor shows in purple, green, pink, blue, etc. if you want a more retro '60's look.

My 86 (all original) doesn't have rear lights, just reflectors. It's yours to do with as you please but the 86 had limited production so not many of them in original condition out here. Guess there might be one less soon?

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.
