result in hard steering, reduces steering effort about 85% and prevents wear
to axle and steering knuckles. Works great for general lawn and garden use,
and/or tractors with a heavy snow plow and/or front loading bucket. Installs
where steering knuckles makes contact with underneath of axle (load-bearing
and friction area). Go here for more information:

|
  Bronze Front Axle
Bushings for Garden Tractors with 3/4" or 1" Diameter Spindle Shafts. When
replacing existing OEM bushings, accurately measure the i.d. x o.d. x length
for replacements of same size. Or use these to replace existing worn bushings
or repair worn (oblong) axle spindle holes when no bushings are originally
installed (when the spindles make metal to metal contact with the cast iron
axle). If no bushings were originally installed in the axle, then spindle
holes must be professionally precision-aligned bored (machined) to accept
bushings. Other sizes of bushings are available. Please let A-1 Miller's
know what you need and I can probably get it for you at a reasonable
price.NOTE: If no grease (Zerk) fittings
are installed in the axle to lubricate the spindle shafts and for easier
steering and longevity of the bushings, it'll be a good idea to install these,
too.

 Grease
(Zerk) Fittings. Use a 1/4-28 UNF (fine thread) hand tap to cut new
threads for installation of a new fitting.

 A-1 Miller's Modification
Service - Install weld-in spindle shafts in YOUR steering knuckles to
lower front of tractor 2-3/8"±
for wide or spread frame Cub Cadet model 86, 108, 109, 128, 129, 149, 169,
582, 582 Special, 680, 682, 782, 800, 882, 1000, 1050, 1100, 1200, 1204,

 Heavy duty, oil-impregnated
metal graphite flange wheel bushing. Universal fit. Dimensions: 3/4" i.d.
x 1-3/8" o.d. x 9/16" width (1/2" fits inside the wheel hub), flange o.d.
is 1-1/2". Oil impregnated means the hardened metal is porous to absorb
oil and grease so it will last longer. The oil acts as a cushion between
the bearing and shaft, adding resistance to wear. These last a long time
as long as they're lubricated with quality automotive lubricating grease
regularly. When installing, align the flat area on the bushing with the
grease (Zerk) fitting. If there is no grease
fitting in the hub of the wheel, then one will need to be installed.
Replaces Cub Cadet part # IH-384881-R94. Our part # 09-3305-3/4.

weight than all-aluminum wheels or steel wheels w/rubber tread, but just
as strong. Dimensions: 5" overall height x 1-5/16" wide x 5/8" center hole.
Our part # 11819.

A-1 Miller's Computerized Stuska Water Brake Engine Dynamometer (Dyno) Service with DPM Data Logger Software to Test Horsepower and Torque! | [Top of Page]
For performance testing of 10-16hp
single cylinder Kohler stock or competition pulling engines at speeds up
to 12,000 RPM. The only dyno service for testing Kohler pulling engines in
central Missouri. Two uncontaminated fuel tanks with an electric fuel pump
- one for gas and another for methanol. Fully operational and 100% accurate,
customers can rent dyno time, fine tune and make adjustments or changes to
their engines to gain maximum horsepower and torque, and print-out the results
so their tractor(s) will be truly competitive on the track. With an engine
dyno, the puller can adjust their engine to get maximum horsepower and torque,
and gear their tractor appropriately to have an advantage over the competition.
NOTE: A fresh-built engine may not produce full power until it's broke-in.
This is when the valves wear-in with the seats to completely seal in the
compression. The rings will likely hold the compression, but the valves may
leak slightly until they wear into the seats. This is normal for all engines
and may take several hours or pulls to happen, then the valves will be able
to hold full compression. Lots of pullers tell A-1 Miller's after I've built
their engines that it seems to pull stronger every time they pull it.
Engine Dyno Rental Fee: $50.00 per hour run time from the moment the engine is started. No setup fee for Cub Cadet engines with a 3- or 6-pin/stud clutch driver. An adapter may need to be needed or fabricated for other makes and models of engines. Only engines with the narrow base oil pan can be tested. Engines with the wide base (tall) oil pan cannot be tested at this time. [Return to Previous Section, Paragraph or Website]
Coming Soon - Detailed
Illustrated Plans on How to Construct a Professional Pull-Back and Self-Propelled
Garden Tractor Pulling Sled. FYI - The
professionally-built self-propelled pulling sled is the only one I've ever
built (click the picture to the right to see a larger image of this sled),
and I got it right the first time, with very few changes or modifications
that had to be made to it. I guess I'm just one of those kind of guys that
knows what he's doing. Pullers really like pulling our sled, too. They say
it's the best sled they've ever pulled. (Not bragging, just stating a fact.)
By the way - Track Master sled is engineered so well (by Brian Miller), that
other sled builders/owners have copied our well thought-out and proven design.
Anyway, I have lots of work to do in my shop and I work on the sled plans
in my spare time. As soon as my plans with an inventory list of parts to
use are perfected, I'll post the update in my websites with the prices of
the plans. Remember - Perfection takes time. If it's worth having, it's worth
waiting for. Also, I plan to acquire a bigger shop and may build high quality
garden tractor pulling sleds in the future to offer for sale. Please call
A-1 Miller's at 573-256-0313 (shop) or 573-881-7229 (cell; text or voice
message), or email A-1 Miller's at
pullingtractor@aol.com if interested.

cup-shaped neoprene rubber seal bonded to an aircraft quality flat washer.
Rubber edge fits snug against Heim joint to prevent dust, dirt, debris and
moisture from entering spherical ball. Apply motor oil on ball before installing
seals to extend the life of the Heim joint. Seals for 1/4" Heim joints not
available.
Purchase the galvanized steel
tubing alone. Customer installs this part. When ordering, please state length
of the OEM tubing from top of the tube to the steering box. When the galvanized
steel tubing is installed, it will need to be pressed into the steering box
with the welded seam facing downward or out of sight (for appearance reasons),

box spaced equally apart. Galvanized steel tubing: $10.00, plus shipping
& handling.

steering. Dimensions: 3/4" i.d. x 1-3/8" o.d. x 9/16" width x 1-1/2" o.d.
flange. NOTE: End of steering column must be crimped inward with large
pliers so bearing will fit snug inside tube. These are NOT the low
quality flanged bearings that's available at most hardware stores. These
have hardened, heated-treated steel races and balls, sealed on both sides
and pre-packed with grease for longer wear.
Retaining Bolts and Flat
Washers for Front Wheels. Includes two 3/8-16 UNC (coarse thread) x 3/4"

1200, 1204, 1210, 1211, 1250, 1282, 1450, 1512, 1535 or 1650 for better weight
transfer in competition pulling. Can also be used to construct custom-made
front axles, such as for a mini-rod pulling tractor. Standard length of [Cub
Cadet] shaft is 3-1/8" for wheels with a 3" width center hub, but available
in any other lengths to accommodate the width of the hub in your front wheels.
To install, cut off original spindle shafts flush with steering knuckle,
and drill a 3/4" hole in steering knuckles
2-3/8"± higher than original shafts
location. Replacement spindle shafts will need to be positioned perpendicular
(exact 90° angle) with steering knuckle, then securely weld to backside
of knuckle for non-interference with spacing of rim.
Heavy duty, oil-impregnated
metal graphite flange wheel bushing for the International Cub Cadet "Original"
with 7/8" diameter front spindle shafts and 1-3/8" inside diameter wheels.
Dimensions: 7/8" i.d. x 1-3/8" o.d. x 9/16" width (1/2" fits inside the wheel
hub), flange o.d. is 1-1/2". Oil impregnated means the hardened metal
is porous to absorb oil and grease so it will last longer. The oil acts as
a cushion between the bushing and shaft, adding resistance to wear. These
last a long time as long as they're lubricated with quality automotive
lubricating grease once a year. When installing, align the flat area on the
