Well the cub got a good workout this weekend which brings up one question... But first some pics of course!

The last two pics are where I was cutting... the first half of the load was pretty quick to get to but the second half was way down the hill next to the clearcut for the pipeline. My 1 ton I dont dare go down the hill with so along came the cub... The weeds were so thick and high (about 6' high in the pipeline) that the first time down there going at a pretty steep grade I actually came to a stop and spun out in the weeds a few times going down! Had to back up and pick a new line. But after the second trip I had a nice 'tunnel' through the weeds. Even though I had some clutch slippage earlier with ~2000# and up with the dump cart loads (oh probably 500-700# depending) going at a steep grade I didnt have slippage on the clutch but traction was an issue. On the toughest parts I'd slip a few times and might have to back down a ways restart, throttling down low in 1st gear and putting all my weight on the uphill side I never got stuck.

Anyhow, my question is just how much of a hill can these tractors take without having a problem with oil? And what is worse, going steep down, up or side to side?

Art, I don't know why my tries at finding the mystery part number in Google didn't return the same one yours did. So, now we know it is a bearing. I hate to open the package just to see what size it is. Maybe I'll take the bottom off so it still looks nice sitting on the shelf
