I have a 48 cub and it has the 4 bar style grill on it. I have been thinking about selling the 4 bar grill and ordering a new screen type grill for it.
has anyone bought the new aftermarket grills that are suppose to match the 48 cubs?
what do you guys think of the grills? Where is the best deal and the best prduct?
Or do you think all of these come from OEM?

I think (if my mind hasn't completely left me) that Bruce Sanford is reproducing some wire mesh grilles that are said to be quite good. I know a common complaint on some of the reproduction grilles is that the mounting tabs are not quite in the right place.

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

For what it's worth, I just ordered an engine manual for my H from Binder Books and they sent me a flyer that said they are now selling some parts for Cubs. The grille they advertised looked very well-made from the picture, and I think the price was around $100.
A kick in the pants is still a step forward.

The grille that's on "Harley" is from J.P.'s. I was very satisfied with the price and the looks but I did have to trim a bit off the top tabs to get it to fit in right, like Bigdog said. It was painted and ready go.

Grille
I ordered a repro off eBay, it was well made and the tabs were in exactly the right place... I posted about it a while back, maybe searching for grille would bring it up, or I can find the info from my eBay page.

That should not be a problem especially if your 4 bar is in good shape. I am sure that whoever buys it, ifn they are on this board would be sure to make that happen -- it would be a fair deal.
Ooooor, now don't shoot me guys - put it on eBay with a start bid of the price of a new one -- again - talk to Bruce Sandford
.
If I remember correctly, sometime this fall there was a thread on how some guy on eBay bid a horrendous amount for an original 4 bar grille....
