Default How're Ya'll doin'

Thanks for lettin' me in. I hope to be of help to other and get help when needed....I have 2 Cub Cadets, 1 is a 2000 yr model #2176 I bought new....The other is a 199 Yr Model #3186...both have around 200 hrs total and have been taken excellent care of....Just got through replacing the "plastic" bushings on the reverse pedal of the 3186 to take out the loose motion....man whatta difference in the speed in reverse! I bought this one 2 months ago from a individual in Indiana....so far am very pleased with it. I am wanting to put on a front and rear hitch and a blade if I can find one resonable. NO NEW stuff for me...too expensive! The dealer mark up must be something else on the Garden equipment in this part of the country and probably everywhere else too...
Thanks to all for allowing me to sign up. If can ever be of assistance to anyone please let me know. I have a lot of expierience with small engine and garden tractors.

Sounds good Tim, many here have GT's as well as subCUT's, CUT's, UT's and more.

Welcome to MU, make a few more posts and then attach pictures of your tractors. (after 5 posts you can do attachments and post pictures)

.... Tim

Plastic isnt the best choice- but keeping them well lubed is key -either WD40 or other after a few mows/washes keeps them moving freely
