Repowered Cub Cadet 70 Garden Tractor
 ✖  |
I was given a Cub Cadet 70 garden tractor if I would drag it out of a barn where it had been a target for pigeons. The 7 hp Kohler motor was stuck so I replaced it with an 11 1/2 hp Kawasaki pull-start. The original Cub generator/starter still worked so I mounted it on the main output shaft, removed the recoil, and machined a pulley to stick out 2 1/2 in. I had to drill only two extra motor mount holes on the flat frame. I used the original wiring harness to charge the battery and equipped it with new 10-in. rims, new tires, and paint. She's a showpiece now and fun to drive. I made a small trailer to pull around. (Scott Werling, 302 W. 400 N., Decatur, Ind. 46733 ph 260 724-4190)
