    Rear disc brake pads for 108

    Hi guys, I'm trying to find pads for the 108. I have the backing plates, and just need the pads, but ccspecialties is out of them. Has anyone had success finding something at an auto parts store that would work? Thanks.

    Blade install question

    Hi guys, I looked through the install manuals on this forum and still can’t find a way to detach my blade subframe from the mainframe for easier attaching. It looks like the attaching rod is welded to the subframe. Do I just pry the subframe from the mainframe?

    Sleeve hitch vs 3-point

    Hi all, I'd like to get a hitch, but am confused by what all I need. I'd just like to use a moldboard plow and box scraper. Can I get by with just the 3-point? Also, is there a list on which attachments are used on each hitch type? Thanks.

    No compression on 108

    Hi all, The 108 I am picking up tomorrow doesn’t run. Any guesses as to what I should try first based on the following fb marketplace listing for it? Cub Cadet 108 garden tractor. This tractor is not running and I did not have it running. The engine spins free and the piston is moving but...

    Gear-drive models: do they all use the Cub's 3-speed tranny?

    Hi guys, I may buy another Cadet in a couple of years (I have a hydro unit now). I have heard that some cadets with the 3-speed have the transmission from the farmall cub. Or, do all 3-speed cadets have the cub's tranny? Thanks.

    Adding a sleeve hitch to my 1250?

    Hi there, I’d love to add a sleeve hitch to my 1250. Would this be a relatively easy thing to do, or would it be too costly, cumbersome, etc? I’d rather have a 3-pt. Hitch, but that sounds costly. Thanks!

    Kohler 12hp-no oil filter?

    Hi all, As I have been trying to do as much maintenance as I can to my new-to-me 1250, it seems like there is no engine oil filter. Is this the case? If so, how often are you all changing the oil? Thanks,

    Front plow fitment?

    Hey guys, I'd like to keep my eyes open for a front plow for my 1250. Can someone tell me what years or models of cub I could look to? For example, does a plow from a different model fit the 1250? Thanks.

    1250 Hydrostatic issue?

    Hi all, I'm still a noob to cub cadets. I was just out mowing and noticed that I don't have a very good speed range on my 1250. Unless I move the speed control most of the way forward (a bit fast for mowing my small yard), she will slow down to neutral. Is this common?

    Hi all, I just bought a 1250 and the previous owner painted the mower deck black, and also painted over the made in usa identification plate. I tried paint thinner to no avail. Does anyone have a good idea for eating away the black paint? Thanks.
