    Parts Wanted IH cadet 60 fuel tank needed

    I have a Troy-Bilt Pony rototiller that has a Briggs-powered motor that uses the cam for the reverse also. Neither the MTD/Troy-bilt sites nor Briggs themselves show any such configuration. Can't even get an oil seal for the thing!

    IH 340 Utility needs major TLC

    I have an International Harvester 340 Utility that I "inherited" when we bought our property from in-laws. There are a couple of nagging issues. First, it was converted to 12V and I have starter problems. I had the starter motor rebuilt with some armature work, new brushes and new starter gear...

    International 300U

    Not intending to steal this thread, but I have a IH 340 Utility that I "inherited" when we bought our property from in-laws. It was converted to 12V and I have starter problems, but that's another story. I tried to engage the TA and it wouldn't go into low. The clutch was WAY out of adjustment...

    Recommendation for "Good" Fuel Shut Off Valve

    Shut off valves, and settling bowls too. People make and sell crap these days. $5.13/gal yesterday here in Idaho for non-ethanol gas. :-(

    Looking at a 1650 today, any issues to look for?

    Great find, and good luck! My wife and I also bought a couple of acres about three years ago. We brought our Cub GTX 2000 along for mowing. I had put a sleeve hitch on the back of it and also have a tilt trailer, drag blade, chain harrow, aerator, disc and fertilizer spreader. I also brought my...

    Parts For Sale FREE PISTON RING SETS

    Wow! We used them a lot back in my Alaska days (1970-80s). Sad to see them taken over. From Wikipedia: "On June 26, 2002, The Riverside Company acquired JC Whitney.[2] In 2007, The Riverside Company created Whitney Automotive Group, which owned other companies such as CarParts.com...

    New Tractor recommendation's ?

    I bought a BX23s 4WD TLB about 2 years ago. It was the smallest Kubota I could get that had a backhoe included. It is diesel, but does not have a regen on it because it is low (23?) horsepower and not (yet) required. The thing absolutely SIPS fuel unless I'm using the bush hog or the box...

    Looking for some guidance on a (782 based) Cub Cadet Post Hole Digger

    Me too. When I need a tool I usually go out and buy/build it, with very few exceptions. Speaking from my own experience, I would go the hydraulic route. Getting an auger stuck on a root or something is a daunting experience with no reverse! (I have a PHD that I bought a couple of years ago. It...

    Sub-Compact Tractor with Loader

    At my old place I moved a LOT of dirt with my GTX2000 and snow blade. Mostly topsoil and garden dirt. I later got a sleeve hitch and a drag blade, as well as chain harrow, aerator, dump trailer, etc. Was plenty good for 1/2 acre, already mostly landscaped. I used three "suitcase" weights and...

    Sub-Compact Tractor with Loader

    I bought a new Kubota BX23S in March of 2019. It was the smallest sub-compact I could get that had a backhoe. We recently bought a 1.7 acre property that had been in my wife's family since the late 60's and size-wise it's been a pretty good fit mostly. (In hindsight, I would have gone a wee bit...
