    Thanks, it's 1insq solid, with 1/4in plate reinforcing sections. The thin stuff isn't really doing anything anymore, just more of a pain to try to remove. I've jumped on it a few times, and it doesn't flex, but the lift link between the handle and the rockshaft does, so it will be reinforced...

    It's been forever since I have put any work into the 129, but I have finally finished the first draft of the 3 point hitch. I think I might have to make the bottom links adjustable, but I will cross that bridge later. I just need to see where this road goes. Paint added after the photos.

    That's exactly what I needed to know, thank you. I was going to attempt to leave the plow alone, but it really does look like I need to fix it or find a smaller one. Looks like I had a bit too much ambition for the Cub. I will make up some concrete wheel weights and add fluid to the tires soon...

    Welcome, I like the look of the older Cubs.

    Nice!! And only $19(in 1960's). I wish modern seats were closer to that price, rather than closer to 5x. Can't even find used for that price.

    It's been a busy week and I haven't been able to make much progress on my attachments. But, I did purchase an older IH Super A plow that I will adapt to the 129. It's big and heavy, but I will slim it down so it should be manageable. I believe it has a 13" cut and is longer than the 129. I plan...

    Rear PTO Attachments

    That looks pretty awesome. Seems like they were going for a miniature tractor look with a narrow front end, large narrow rears and a conventional looking pto shaft. Also, that rear section with the IH sticker, is that just a cover or is it a lift to fit the rear tires?

    Welcome, and nice tractor, that seat looks comfortable.

    Any Sears fan lurking about?

    So I've grown up associating Sears and Craftsman together, but after reading this thread I see that I am a bit mistaken. Although in my defense, the tag does say Sears Robuck. I just picked this tiller up today, and have an older lawn mower that started me down this CC rabbit hole. I started...

    From the picture it looks like it's only half way mounted. I could be wrong though, I only have the mower mule drive to judge from.

    Ahh, pictures online are the only thing I had to go from. Makes sense that it's thicker, I'll just weld some more on, thanks for the catch.

    More work today, I created the lower links for the 3-point. I don't know how long most are, but mine came out to 21" center to center. Lots of free movement from the links. I also attached and tested the grader blade. It has more solid engagement, now for more traction(clay and turf tires don't...

    So it begins...

    After trying things out today the throttle shaft has a hint of play, but not enough that I think it's the problem. I don't think it even has 0.1in slop. I did notice that on a slope it needs choke, opposite slope it doesn't, and flat it doesn't... So I'm going to take the carb off and check on...

    Thanks cdthornton, correct, it turned out more level than I anticipated. I attempted to give it about a 25degree angle on the bottom flat side, but I guesstimated while it was an inch above the ground, with room to move down. In the full down position it swings forward a little, and takes up the...

    1961 Cub Cadet rebuild completed

    That Original looks great, nicely done.

    "Other" implements

    Nice, I was thinking of hooking my tractor to my truck, just to see what it could do. That trailer looks great too.

    It scrapes the top a little, but does not really dig in/through the dirt. I've changed the angle, and made some non floating links, but need to finish the rear support that needed to be cut off to change the angle.
