I can't get them to post???

I took a few pics of all my stuff today that we talked about in the past few weeks. I got pics of my 108 with the larger turf tires and my 70 with the 29" 12:50-15" 's on the rear. Each one of my cadets is going to have its own personality....

Thanks the pics are on the way. I didn't have the larger front tires on the cadet 7o yet but you can see how great the tru power tires look on the rear with the rims i made. I thinking of putting the 5 lug front 154 cub hubs on the front with the 400-12's 3 rib front tires that should even it out too. I hauled heavy loads of steel with the trailer and the tru power tires didn't spin once and the 70 with the 8hp replacement engine pulled it with no problem. Down the road i'm thinking of using a 6 pin driving plate with a 6 pin clutch disc and a stronger clutch spring(pulling) so i can take advantage of the larger tires. I need to put the 154 finals and the 154 front axle and fab the subframe for the FEL. With the extra low ratio of the 154 finals it should of have lots of low end grunt even with the 8hp engine its a ll in the gearing. Since my 108 seems ok for a while on the seafoam i have an extra 14hp kolher hmm thats an idea to put it in the 70? I really don't want to beat up the 8hp too much it runs so good now. I guess my plan has finally started. I want something larger than a cadet yet smaller than my 154. I don't want everything to look the samey, same.....But the way the 15" rim tires look on my 70 cadet I may fabricate another pair of 15" rims for my 100 cub cadet. They do offer a 31" 15.50 15" tru power tire too, then i'll need a 12" or wider rim. I found a website with affordable tru power tires. But as we go larger they do become more expensive.


Gilles, Finally you get some pics you been asking for them for a while sorry it took so long.
