I have to agree. The WF cubs are our preference. Dad and I have had 2 narrow frames in the past (A 105 and a 124). We currently have in the fleet 5 wideframes (A '72 149 (Dad has owned this one since 1978) A '74 149 (Braked PTO, A '78 1450 (Mine), An '80 782, and an' 82 782 (Veltilated block, parts tractor). By far our favorite is the 149, and I would substitute the 149 in Kraigs "Perfection" graphic. My 1450 will become mre 149 like, I plan on replacing the ISO mounts with solid ones in the future. I would like to get a 169 and a "D" Cub in the future, but for Dad and I Perfection is the 149!!!!
 
Apart from the red series, I like NF's. they are simple and easy to work on....most of the time. To each his own

Can anybody enlighten me on tire size for the rears on an Original How bout where to possably find a bar tire ,I've seen some on here. Thanks
 
Does anyboby know where i can go to down load a 109 operators manual for a 109 hydro?
 
I have gotten the tires on the 104! Those narrow 8 inch fronts are a (insert own word here!), to put on. I ended up putting the rims in the shop press at my grandads under light pressure to hold them in one place and the tires still went on hard! I got the rears on easy enough till I got home and realised I put one on the wrong way. Kinda like they were when I originally brought it home all those months ago. I will post some pics once I get it off the jack stands. Heck I might even get the drive shaft and clutch in so I can take her out for a spin!

I'm gathering parts for the Super Steer axle upgrade on a 126. Does anyone have a source for rims for the 16.5x6-8 tires with a 5x4.5" bolt pattern? I have a source for one-piece 8x3" rims. They have 16.5x6-8 trailer wheel & tire assemblies, but not the bare rims. I'm buying wholesale so I can get the assemblies for $28 each, but I'd rather just buy the bare rim. Two piece wheels would be even better. I have a set of narrow piece rims, but I haven't seen wide ones.

Thanks, Jerry
