I have them all but there on 3 different tractors.

My 1st int154 has the mid & rear hydraulics with a selector valve/ 3pt hitch. With the 13.6x16 and the 10" rim front turf tires. Also a 3260 mower deck.

My 2nd int154 has the creeper tranny with the twin brake pedals. It also has the mid hydraulics. It has the 8,3x24 goodyear AG rear tires which i don't see that many 154's with AG rear tires. It has the IH snowplow.

My 3rd int154 is a plain jane 154 but it has the mid hydraulics with the 13.6x16 and the 10" rim front turf tires. This one is my project tractor.

I just picked up a complete creeper tranny setup and a dual brake setup for my project tractor. I figure the creeper would come in handy with the FEL.

I was using my #3 154 with the creeper tranny and dual brake pedals and got stuck in some soft stuff. I noticed one rear wheel was spinning so i stopped it to let the power transfer to the other wheel that had traction. It worked and i got out. I also use the creeper low range with the snow plow. I just go slow and steady with it. Using the creeper has to take some of the load off the engine and clutch for sure.

Now i want the creeper and dual brake pedals on all my 154's. I'm making a dual brake pedal setup on my cub cadet 70 using the later disc brakes. I also want to shim the axle gears too with a wave washer. My extra carrier to measure is MIA somewhere.

I have a 154 with dual brakes , mid and rear hydraulic lifts and the creeper gear. I didn't realize that the 154 also came with a single brake since my 185 and my brother's 154 also has dual brake pedals. Even my 982 has dual brake pedals.
The creeper comes in handy when I'm using the tiller. I'm looking for a creeper for my 185

I tried bidding on twin brakes for my cub cadet on sleeze bay but i always get out bid, and then the price goes ballastic soon after. The going rates get silly on sleezebay.

I'm adding disc brakes to my 70 cub cadet and i'm going to use the bearing pillow blocks so i can setup dual brake pedals. I notice alot of one wheel spinning mainly when i'm plowing snow.

I wasn't too interested in dual brake pedals until i used it on my fcub.

The gearing on the int154 with the creeper seems to be better than the gearing on the cub cadet with the creeper. I notice the tiller on my cub cadet can make the engine moan were the plow on the 154 with the creeper doesn't even know its pushing dirt when its loaded. I notice its two different loads but the 154 doesn't miss a beat. The engine stays at that rpm. It seems the 154 maybe a tad lower in the gear ratio's.
