Plain Jane cub question

Postby sgtbull » Wed Jan 23, 2013 3:41 pm

If a cub came originally w/ no lights, what was put in the holes for the light supports?
I've never met a tractor I didn't like....but I have found some that were greatly annoying....

I don't know, but I would guess nothing or possibly corks.

A stock hood was used, holes were not plugged, the light post was simply left off. More than likely IH had a simple reason behind this...so that a bare bones cub could be upgraded with lights by the owner if desired at anytime in the future. The associated knockouts in the dash panel were also left in place.
