Working with and on a '49 Cub. Was running and had a belly mower when I bought it, had the dealer blast and paint it, install new brake bands and fix the clutch. I've done miscellaneous repairs and maintenance since then. Governor linkages were worn and sloppy, repaired them, straightened some tin, repaired the new brakes when the rods snapped off the bands (defective factory welds, I drilled them and put in small bolts), adjusted regulator (wasn't charging), fixed toe in, adjusted valves, replaced fan belt, changed fluids and oil filter, lubed all grease/oil points etc. Hydraulics won't stay up, will do a rebuild on it later this year. In the meantime, a chain keeps mower where I want it. Heckuva fun little tractor and a solid mower. Need more grass to mow.
