    Ken - like Glen, I'm looking to use my 149 to help prepare a 3/4 acre piece of land for a vegetable garden for the town food bank. This land was farmed fifty years ago, but now it is dense grass. I'm not a farmer, and don't know the terminology (plow, disc, ...). What kind of implements should I...

    What spark plug model number is recommended for the Kohler Magnum 18 engine? I've looked at the FAQ and David Kirk lists the Champion RV17YC (or equivalent) for the Kohler KT17, but the Magnum isn't listed. I'm overdue on replacing the plugs on my 682 (with KT17 - Series I), 782 (with Magnum...

    JEREMIAH - Deciding whether to replace the ST-745 sealed bearing with the same or the 759-3479/3293 cast aluminum type can be a tough call. The ST-745 from Charlie is a bargain at $68 if your stamped steel cup ($63) and cap ($18) is in good shape. As you have probably read in earlier postings...

    Tom (or anyone else), So what is the purpose of the two springs on the rear rake/blade? Is it some sort of spring assist that isn't needed with hydro lift CC models? Or perhaps to keep the rake/blade from twisting or bouncing around? I'm using this with a 149.

    Tom, How did you know that I eat Cheerios? And not only on days that I use my Cub Cadet. You must be psychic.

    The components of the rear rake and rear backfill blade include a pair of springs (10) and brackets (11). I'm finally putting my rear rake to use, and found that I didn't have the springs or brackets. I'm wondering if I really need them, as I haven't seen them included in rakes/blades sold on...

    Pair of 82 Series Tail Lights New, and a close reproduction of the NLA OEM lamps. The red lens is 4 1/2 x 1 5/8" and the screw holes are 3 7/8" apart. Unless your mounting holes are oblong, you probably will have to drill screw holes in your sheet metal. Complete with everything pictured...

    82 Series IH Grill Badge I have two metal IH badges for sale for $25 each postpaid to USA addresses. These badges are 2 1/4" wide, 2 1/2" tall, with pins 2" apart. These are used OEM badges, not reproductions which I don't think are yet available for the 82 series anyway. The 82 series badge...

    Guys, please ignore my last post. I found the answer in Charlies FAQ.

    The question on power steering, reminded me to ask about 'Super Steering'. I recall hearing that phrase before. Was that some sort of improvement IH or CC made reduce the turning radius, did it mean power steering, or something else?

    Dennis - your note makes sense as I seen the word "Fires...." stamped into the rim of the JD wheel. Part of the name was obscured by the center disc. I presume the symbol to the left is for Electric Wheel Co. If this markings are also on Cub Cadet wheels I haven't yet noticed it.

    Nic - thanks for the reply. I took a closer look at the rims. The wheel seam and where the inner lug bolt web is welded to the outer wheel is slightly different so they are from a different manufacturer than that used by CC.

    Matt - thanks for the reply. Now to another question. With the 1450 I recently got, came two sets of rear tires: Ag and Turf. The odd thing is that on the Ag tire rim the valve stem points inward towards the transaxle. The photo on the left shows the turf tire mounted on the left side of the...

    I would like to confirm which style tail light originally went on various CC's. I think the oval Grote (bottom) is on the Wide Frames, the deep rectangle (middle) is on the the Quiet Line, and the thin rectangle with visible screws (top) is on the 82 Series. Have I got that correct?

    David G. - Regarding your 149 with 48" deck, the specs for tightening the outer spindles are 55 to 70 ft lbs for the top (pulley) nut, and 55 to 60 ft lbs for the hex nut next to the blade. Any chance you misplaced the fiber friction washer that should be between the blade and spindle? Or...

    Tom, You probably have the correct steering wheel. The 82 Series steering wheel is a different part number than the 122 wheel. So my O-ring advice isn't going to help.

    Tom, I just pulled the decorative cap off an 82 series steering wheel. The retainer is a round rubber O-ring which sits into a groove of the steering wheel hub. The O-ring is .14" thick, 2" outside diameter, 1.75" ID. Mine has a light petroleum jelly (Vaseline) coating. If CC parts doesn't...

    HyTran question: the operators manual says to change the transmission <u>filter</u> every 100 hours. Okay, that's clear. But how often should the HyTran <u>fluid</u> be changed?

    The 1450 I recently bought came with a 44A mower deck that had rust holes and a split wooden front roller. Today I came upon a 44C deck that is in much better shape, but is missing the belt cover. From the Parts Lookup it seems the 44A cover can be used on the 44C. So that looks good. But...

    Joe C. - Yes, the rear pin is the infamous Spirol Pin. You wrote that it fell out. Any luck in finding it in the grass with a magnet, which would be a miracle? Though if it came out, it probably was already sheared into two or three pieces. Around here I can't find spirol (aka coil) pins in...
