SIX-VOLT BULBS FOR HEADLIGHT
I received a call today from a fellow who is restoring a cub. He is ready to purchase six volt bulbs for the headlights but was quoted a price of $90 from the only source which he is aware of. I remember that someone identified a company which could provide them at a reasonable price but my search did not provide any information. Can someone help locate a cheaper source. Thanks, Dan

Dan - are you talking about sealed beam headlamps or the 1133 bulbs?

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

OEM's bulbs are okay & definately worth the money if they are a quality product, but nowhere near correct in appearance.. If the $90/ea is for NOS IH bulbs I can see that, although I never sold any for that price .... I can remember being at an auction about 7 or 8 years ago where 2 cases of NOS bulbs sold for approx $125-150 per bulb.

They are GE and worked great for me. I am a good friend of the TISCO dealer, so that is why I got the price I did. I maybe able to get them from him again, if your friend will get the shipping.

I plan to call him soon and relay the information which I have received. Jim: I am not familiar with OEM. Can that company be reached on-line? Thanks, Dan

Dan,
OEM can be found at http://www.oemtractorparts.com/
Farmallcub49,
Did you get sealed beams with 2 screw lugs on the back or the ones with a single centered screw lug? The 2 screw type are called PAR36 and are pretty common.

Pete: I didn't think to mention this to you when we talked but the Tisco Tractor site lists two dealers in Magnolia, Fallin Tractor and Langford Tractor. I haven't checked with Langford in a couple of years. I think he was pushing retirement age the last time I visited so I don't know if his business is still open. Farmallcub49 got a special price but you might find that Fallin or Langford, if they do handle Tisco parts, would be your cheapest source. Let me know if I can be of further help. Did your grandmother like the Cub? Dan

Jim,
They are the two lug type.
I don't feel that I recieved a good price, because my buddy just bought some at NAPA for $7.95.
