Narrow Frame Cub Pulling Tractor Build Pt2

Second installment of my sons 1969 Cub Cadet 124 pulled build. This is the culmination of a weeks worth of work. Stay tuned for part 3, thanks for watching!

Good looking puller. Many might not know. Those Cubs built back in the day. Their drive train were just about as tough as a half ton p/u truck. They were nicely overbuilt. 👌

[@karnesmotorsports]

Thanks! Yea they were definitely over built! The center section is the same thing used in a Farmall Cub tractor. Thanks for watching!

Great looking rig ! Your son must be stoked for it ! Will be impressive to see with all the weights hung on it ! Look forward to seeing more of this !

[@mikeburgan7675]

Awesome build Sir!

[@karnesmotorsports]

Thanks! I wish I would’ve done a better job videoing it during the build. I learned a lot in the process! Thanks for watching!

[@PullerbearEd]

Looks great. That is a really nice setup.

Great job!!!

[@karnesmotorsports]

Thanks! It’s coming along. If it pulls half as good as it looks we’ll be doing something!

[@marcnissen578]

But it’s coming together and looking good

[@karnesmotorsports]

Thanks! Waiting on a few parts still, then we’ll get back on it.

Nice job 👍🏻 new to your channel

[@karnesmotorsports]

Thanks! We struggled with it all summer but I think we’ve got it figured out for this season, just in time to start struggling with my daughter’s new tractor. Thanks for watching!

I have some friend that are TH-camr and they puller there channel are pullerbear ed and twisted v twin garage see you around

[@chuckfowler4754]

Cool project👍 Where did you get the seat box?

[@karnesmotorsports]

Midwest super cub. Got the grill from them as well.

[@joekrim6557]

any rear engine, rear driven lawn mower pull?

[@karnesmotorsports]

I believe there’s an allowance for them in our rules. Most everyone uses gear drive cubs or wheel horses.

[@donraabe3529]

Where did you get those suit case weights at. I’m starting on a 122 and this video is going to really help me out..

[@karnesmotorsports]

My buddy made them. He has a CNC plasma cutter. They’re 1/2” plate and weigh 7lbs each. I can put you in touch with him if you would like.

[@davidhill5621]

You guys dont have to run steel flywheel?

[@karnesmotorsports]

Anything over 4000rpm. Personally I believe it’s a safety issue and run them on whatever.

[@davidhill5621]

@@karnesmotorsports yes ,ive seen the cast iron ones explode on a video one time at 4800 rpm

[@karnesmotorsports]

This is a steel one. I believe it’s a safety issue regardless of what the rules say about external modifications.

[@davidhill5621]

@@karnesmotorsports google brian miller garden tractor pulling tips and tricks,lots a good info on that site , good luck,hollar if i can help in any way

[@marcnissen578]

Are you gonna run a steel fly wheel I think Vogel sells a aluminum one we couldn’t run a factory fly wheel due to our insurance that covered our club we have had them crack and then fly apart I guess it depends on what your club rules say

[@karnesmotorsports]

I have a steel flywheel coming from Lakota. That’s what’s holding this project up at the moment. We’re governed to 4K rpm in this class, so a cast flywheel “should” be safe, but I’m not chancing it. Regardless of what the rules say about having to run a stock flywheel.
