I just graduated from Cub Cadet to something that does some real work. :)

Picked it up last week and finally got some time to do some work on it today, maintanance was not a vocation with the previous owner.

I came with a 4' LMC finish mower and I already had a 5' rake and 4' box.

The muffler, what was left of it, needed to be replaced so instead of paying $160 at the dealer I bought a Stanley for $30 and replaced the can myself. The air intake hose was rotten so I matched it up at NAPA to a radiator hose and but out a new one.

I did get new radiator hoses at the dealer.

The 21"++ top link was too long for the rake and box so I cut out 4" of it and welded it back together.

Other than a general going over and oil change and what I mentioned above that tractor was in pretty good condition, runs great.

She'll eventually get painted and new tires.

Nice work. My B7001D is similar (but older I expect) but has a Kubota decal on the hood and the only mention of Zen-noh is a badge on the radiator grille. Marvellous workhorse it is too, I'm looking forward to giving it a full service and bedding it down for the winter sometime soon, for now it's carting firewood till the shed's full.
