    Whats the best FREE Anti-Virus program out there

    Stay away from AVG, it's a resource hog. I used Avast for a bit and it was better.

    Kendell, thanks for #1 and #3. As for #2, I already thought of that. Problem is, the pulley doesn't want to be pulled off. What tools/technique have folks used to successfully remove it?

    Hi everybody. I've been gone a while, but I'm back working on my 149. I've got a few questions. First, is the tin on a 14Hp Kohler supposed to look like this: Looks like it's been hammered in to me, but I can't imagine why anyone would do that. Of course, I have run into all sorts of...

    Frank - I was working on an idea in my head to make up a little rectangular plate with a cutout the correct size of the hole in the trunnion that could be screwed/epoxied onto the existing trunnion. I found somebody to weld up the trunnion on my 129/149 project, so I didn't have to go that...

    CC 882 diesel

    Cubs are a lot rarer here in Maine than in the Midwest, so the asking prices tend to be higher. Don't know about selling prices, but the owners usually want a mint for them. I saw that ad, and thought it would be nice to have, but I don't have the kind of cash to spend on a tractor. IF I was...

    Don, I just picked up one of these: All the talk about setting governors made me think about my 149. My "seat of the pants" tach said that the engine was running way to fast. Well, the Vibratach said it was running at about 3400 RPM no load, so I adjusted the cable and high speed stop...

    Tim, does your hydro look like this: Is the fan intact? Did mice build a nest on top of the hydro? Roasted mouse nests smell pretty bad.

    Frank - The 3 pin driver on your 1200 is the same as the one used on the "hydrostatic disconnect attachment" - basically an optional clutch that could be added to hydro tractors.

    Timothy, you can remove the bottom balance gear without disassembling the motor, just remove the snap ring and slide it out. Make sure to get all the shims out. To get the top gear out without pulling the crankshaft, use a cold chisel. I used a 3/4" chisel, but a 1" should work too. Put the...

    Jeff, The hydro is pretty much the same on a 149 and a 1450. Early 1450's had external disc brakes, later 1450's had internal brakes in the transmission. Other differences on the 1450 are: Magneto ignition and a flywheel starter instead of a starter-generator on the 149, electric PTO...

    Hi all. Been gone a long time, but now I'm back in the Cub fixing business. I'm putting together a 149 from two basket-case tractors. I had the hydro trunnion welded up, and now I've got the tractor about 80% assembled. I want to check the hydro for leaks and adjust it for neutral. Problem...

    Donald H: If you are tearing up your driveway with the chains, you are doing it wrong. The trick to plowing snow with a cub is momentum. Think "ramming speed"

    Hi, I'm still looking for the 149 Hydraulic Lift parts in the image below. Numbers 3, 5 and 22. 3 and 5 are the lift handle and the link that connects it to the lift valve. 22 is part of the rockshaft assembly. Even if you don't have all three parts, I'll take what I can get. Please let me...

    1440 PTO and Belt

    The correct belt is the one you have. With a 4.5" pulley, your mower blades are going to spin 25% slower, and won't cut as well. Can you put the 6" pulley on the new PTO? If not, I'd keep looking for the right PTO.

    1811 Hydro Problems...

    Chuck - I just re-read your original post, and you say that the trunnion looks good. If that's the case, check the pin and groove in the cam plate, they get worn too. After 1000 hours things are going to be worn.
