    782 front subframe wear?

    Just a thought on welding them up. Might consider using hard facing rods that are used for anti wearing loader bucket surfaces. Then hand grind to fit. I have used it for repairing a broken gear tooth or teeth.

    147 Cub Cadet how Do I find out what PTO rebuild kit is correct?

    I did face the friction surfaces on the lathe & used 80 grit Emory cloth to crosshatch the surfaces. I also purchased new bolts, triangle spring, 3 coil springs & a new button from CCS.

    147 Cub Cadet how Do I find out what PTO rebuild kit is correct?

    I recently went through all the correct steps to rebuild one of these PTO clutches….. EXCEPT for genuine CC friction material… the off brand stuff “EBay” is a crap shoot & you will most likely get burned in the long run. My FleaBay friction material held up for 2 months. Slippage became worse...

    Red Sticky grease

    I’m sure the Red n Tacky from Lucas is good grease. For my area most local auto parts stores have it priced in the $10.00 range. I usually buy a carton of grease about every 3-4 months. I most always just buy Lithium based grease at $3.29.

    1967 Massey Ferguson 10

    Years ago I had a similar tractor. Possibly an 8 ?? It had a recoil start 10 HP Tecumseh engine that had obviously been transplanted. Deck was 38” 2 blade all gear drive on deck. With a belt PTO.

    Vermeer M 147H PTO questions

    My recommendation is….Use genuine CC parts to rebuild your PTO. They will work & perform/last a very long time if done correctly.

    Chainsaw chain

    I use Oregon or Stihl chains & have an Oregon bench grinder for sharpening & gauging rakers. Almost anything else I have tried as far as chains wear in the hinge pins & the pitch on the drive dogs creates excessive wear on drive sprocket(s). I used to hand file for sharpening & nothing wrong...

    Wheels & studs

    I have home made wheel weights that the bulk of pull off to get to the wheel bolts. But about 30#’s of weight & weight bolts stay with the wheel. Some sort of alignment aid is much needed!

    Wheels & studs

    I have a regular bolt, same thread as wheel bolts, with the hex head cut off. Run it in a hole with fingers, that gives you a temporary stud. Then install all other bolts, remove stud & replace with last wheel bolt.

    1862 Cub Cadet mower issues

    Sounds like a carb/fuel issue to me. Should never be run to mow or other work without an air filter. except for diagnostic reasons

    1450 belt issue

    I don’t have a tiller. A few years back I had lots of issues with mower drive belt. After much frustration I removed entire mule-drive assembly. There was lots of wear on the pulley brackets & mounting shaft. This was causing some alignment issues. Once all that was repaired belt issues...

    Best Carb Cleaner

    The pine-sol might work well in the ultrasonic too! Last time I used my ultrasonic I was out of simple green & found my wife’s MrClean Worked well.

    Best Carb Cleaner

    I have an ultrasonic cleaner that uses water & a bit of cleaner like “simple green”. Prices vary depending on size. If you might have other uses for it they are a good investment, & no really harsh chemicals needed. VEVOR 30L Industrial Ultrasonic Cleaner with Digital Timer&Heater 40kHz...
