    Cub electronic ignition conversion but non Pertronix kit.

    The seller has agreed to refund my money when I return the kit. I found a tune up kit with points, condenser, and rotor for $20.41 on Ebay. I like the 2 Pertronix kits I've installed in the past, but I refuse to pay close to $200 bucks for one now. Thanks everyone for trying to help!

    Cub electronic ignition conversion but non Pertronix kit.

    No it won't fit. That's how it should have been made.

    Cub electronic ignition conversion but non Pertronix kit.

    I agree completely. That would require surgical precision to work. I'm not that good lol.

    Cub electronic ignition conversion but non Pertronix kit.

    I think this would line up perfectly with the holes as you said. Except the stud or post that the points previously rode on is in the way. And this isn't a true Pertronix kit. Honestly I think it's a cheap Chinese knock-off. I actually have two Pertronix kits in other tractors that work great...

    Cub electronic ignition conversion but non Pertronix kit.

    I agree about redrilling the holes. I don't think i could re-drill the holes with the absolute precision needed to make this work properly. I wrote to the seller and asked what I should do to make this work. If I don't get a reply by tomorrow, I'll report them to Ebay for selling a cheap...

    Cub electronic ignition conversion but non Pertronix kit.

    I have a 53 Cub. A few years ago I did a 12 volt conversion. I ordered a generic electronic ignition conversion kit (not Pertronix). It came with zero instructions, but I watched some videos on YouTube. I removed the points and condenser. The new module plate looks like it would fit in the old...

    Massey 44 hydraulic cylinder question

    Yup I have the 44sp manifold, control lever and ram. The picture I posted is a plain 44 hydraulic ram that I'm going to use. If you are ever near ND, I'd give you the special parts I'm not going to use.

    Massey 44 hydraulic cylinder question

    I have a 49 MH 44. It had a live hydraulic pump added to run a leaky old New Idea loader. I took the loader off. From the pump I have a high pressure hose and a return hose going back to the reservoir. I split the tractor last summer, and put a 44 Special trans and rear end with a 3 point. But...

    MH 44 with cab/adding heat ?

    I will keep that in mind. Great tip, thank you!

    MH 44 with cab/adding heat ?

    Thank you so much for your time and input! I will try to McGiver something. I'm thinking tapping in at the upper radiator hose, and returning at a drain petcock or adapting something at a drain plug. But even just having the cab will be more "heat"than I'm used to. But this is my forever...

    I didn't see any on mine either. John

    MH 44 with cab/adding heat ?

    I will look for those ports today Steve. It would sure be neat to have that heater working in the cab. Thank you!

    MH 44 with cab/adding heat ?

    Yeah my left hand is crippled from a car crash, so getting in and out is hard for me too. I have a small aluminum step ladder I use to get in and out. Once I'm in there I'm amazed how roomy the cab is. It's an absolute joy to drive now. Thanks for the reply.

    MH 44 with cab/adding heat ?

    Probably 10 years ago I bought my 49 MH 44 with a completely worn out transmission. It would lock up at the worst times, and constantly fall out of gear. 3 years ago I bought the 44 Special trans/rear end/cab from a guy parting out a Special. This spring I found a gantry crane, and built up the...
