    Making a much unloader for my trailer.

    It’s done, no problem. I didn’t grind it down to the angle of the bit. I bought a key that was 1/4” to 3/16” and cut the 3/16” off I also used super glue. I slowed my drill press down to as slow as it could go. I took Oldnslo’s advice and bolted it down to my drill press table so it wouldn’t...

    Making a much unloader for my trailer.

    Wow! I really like that setup. No cable. I’ll have to rethink my setup. My winch is a different set up. It’s a Badland 2500. It has a knob connected to a small shaft that you pull out to free wheel the cable out. I use my winch for other things so I don’t want to make one dimensional. I’ll have...

    Making a much unloader for my trailer.

    I thought of something like that. I have a larger pipe I can weld to the rim. The pipe will fit over the existing pipe and I could bolt it together like you had mentioned. Then I wouldn’t use the hub at all. I wanted to use the existing pipe because it already has the right size bearings to...

    Making a much unloader for my trailer.

    I would like to use what I have lying around. Besides, the manure spreader wouldn’t be roadworthy to pick up wood chips, black dirt or gravel for my driveway. I’m retired and it gives me something to do in the winter.

    Making a much unloader for my trailer.

    I’m thinking it could be a little bigger because I’ll be using the key and it has a set screw. I’m using the hub and rim from a broken down golf cart I have. I need the rim to wind the winch cable on so the winch can turn the rim that’s attached to the pipe and unload the trailer. It’s not like...

    Making a much unloader for my trailer.

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this? I have an 8’x5’ utility trailer I would like to use for unloading mulch, wood chips and dirt. The tarp I have is from an old cargo unloader that I use to use for unloading wood from my truck. I see you can buy them from harbor freight so you have...

    X370 Foot Pedal to Hand Control Conversion

    I have a 2022 X370 and I was hoping to convert the forward/reverse foot pedal control to a hand control. I’ve read some articles but my linkage seems to be a little different. I haven’t made anything up yet but the few times I’ve had an idea for mounting a rod or lever on my pedal, the break...

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    My Cub is all fixed. Taking it apart wasn’t that bad except for the two bolts on top of the housing. They wouldn’t come lose, I sprayed liquid wrench on them a couple of times through the day and let it soak over night. The next day I still couldn’t get them lose. I only have a 3/8 ratchet for...

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    I already started to take it apart. I figured I could get the whole housing if needed, so why not take it apart. Looking at the service manual, I see there might be a couple of O rings I’ll need to get. I’ll see what happens.

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    I did try cub cadet (MTD) sight. I don’t think I mentioned it but they didn’t have it. He suggested taking it apart and see if there were any numbers on it and look online at a seal or bearing place. Thanks anyway.

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    Not a bad idea. I got pretty lucky. The place I found is less than 2 hour’s from my house. I’ll go pick it up.

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    I have found a used cub cadet that is sitting at a parts junk yard. I have a 7195 that was made in 97 and this one is a 7200. I looked up the parts numbers and their the same. I’ll need to buy the whole housing and reduction gears right where it bolts up to the front axle. Right now I don’t see...

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    I tried, made my order, gave them my credit card number. An hour later they emailed me back with a refund. Said the parts are obsolete. I tried them all and I got the same answer. I talked with an implement parts man and he suggested the same thing. He said it hardly works but It might slow...

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    I took a better look and the dirt on the housing must have soaked it up. I don’t know, unless at one point it shot out of there. It’s definitely leaking from the bottom of the kingpin. I grabbed a hold of the housing and tried to see if there was a bad bearing also. Didn’t seem like it. I’m...

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    Sorry guys, I haven't been available to respond. I won’t be able to look at it until later in the week. At first glance I was looking at the bottom of the kingpin, but now I see oil coming from higher up. I’ll have to take a closer look at it later in the week. I’ve attached some picture’s, and...

    Need a front wheel seal on Cub Cadet

    I have a 7195 Cub Cadet with a bad front swivel seal. I checked all the online parts dealers with no luck. They all tell me it’s obsolete. Does anyone know of another place or what can I do besides keeping it full of oil. Need help. Thanks

    Check Hydraulic Fluid

    I looked in my owners manual. All it said is for the motor not to be running and the tractor to be on level ground. I went out and checked it before I started it, same thing as before. I started it, let it run for about a minute, shut it off then checked it. It was dripping wet on the full...

    Check Hydraulic Fluid

    I have a Cub Cadet 7195 compact tractor. When I go to check the hydraulic fluid before I start it. The dip stick is completely dry. I put the dip stick back in to check it again and it is dripping wet full. I’ve done this 3 mornings in a row with the same results. It never use to be like this...

    How much can my tractor pull

    I have a 7195 Cub Cadet 19 hp. Hydrostatic transmission. How much weight can I pull without hurting the transmission? I have a 4 ton flat hay wagon that I plan on using to haul wood logs for fire wood. I have my doubts about it pulling 2 ton across a field. Someone told me it can pull half the...

    Remote Hydraulic Valve Squealing

    I have a Cub Cadet 7195 with a FEL. I was driving across a field when it stated to make noise. I moved the control rod into it's neutral position and the noise stops. When I move it back to the engaged position it starts to make noise again. When engaged the FEL and 3 point hitch hardly moves...

    Hydraulics makes a squeal noise

    I have a Cub Cadet 7195 with a FEL. I was driving across a field not using my FEL or 3 point hitch and my hydraulics started to make a loud squealing noise. The noise is coming from the valve box under the right fender. When I move the hydraulic control stick into neutral the noise stops. When...

    Glow Plugs not working.

    I have a Cub Cadet 7195. The glow light doesn't come on and I checked the 3 glow plugs individually, they all checked out ok. I've aquired an electrical schematic and it doesn't show any relay, I've looked for one but can't find one. I followed the schematic and it looks like it's being fed from...
