finally got some cub time in this weekend, satuarday i used the 149 to mow my postage stamp sized front yard, but any excuse to use the cubs i gota take. also mowed down some 5ft tall grass were i want to build a board walk across a bog area. today i used the 106/loader to trench the upper end of the bog to better drain were i installed a culvert and rock crossing last year. unfortunatly the 106 started to make a differnt noise than normal, upon inspection i found that the teaser spring broke, the damn things only a year old ! the stock clutch just isn't up to task of using the loader. i think i'm gona upgrade to somthin heavy duty, but i'm concerned about the ability to "slip" the pulling type clutches, with out the teaser spring my clutch is not very linear now, any input would be appreitated
