TC confusion

There has to be a good tutorial on rekitting the Cub CT hydraulics, but I can't find it. Any Videos or stills from a Cubfest demo? I watched Steiners rebuild video a dozen times but Racheal leaves out a lot of reassembly details. I have most of it back in place (Ithink) but have some confusion yet. Really rather not put it together and find I have to order another $75 kit. Can't be sure of the last few components even with aid of exploded view - not same components.
Thank you, and Happy 4th!
 
There's two kits, depending on the part number of your TC. Do you have the right kit? Look at the HOW TO forum for some info, I think the forum member poster is Dale Finch. Stan
 
Hi,
There are differences in the Cub Touch Controls through the years.
You have to find the IH part number of the Touch Control block to buy the right rebuild kit.
The part number is on the left side of the block, unless you have about a 1970 or newer Cub.
Part numbers 351981R1, and 354383R1 through 354383R4 use the same kit, those are the earlier Touch Controls, used up until later 1954.
Part number 360719R1 uses a different kit. That number is used from later 1954 on.
That is when they were originally used, the unit you have could have been changed from another Cub.
Below are the 2 Touch Control block rebuild posts in the How To forum on here.

Thread 'Old Style Touch Contol BlockRebuild'

I am rebuilding an old style touch control block Casting number 351686R1 (The early Touch Control part numbers are 351981R1, and 354383R1 through 354383R4. Credit @Glen) on a 1948 Cub. The old style has some significant differences from the new style. I have searched this sight as best I could for a step by step repair complete with pics.like troop has done for the new style but cannot seem to find anything. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Otherwise I will document my rebuild and post it as I go.
Thanks,
Joey J.

Thread 'Hydraulic Block Rebuild'

This is a rebuild for hydraulic block 360719R1. Different block(s) will require different parts so make sure to get the right rebuild kit. There are some variances as well but this should still be of assistance. The pictures should tell the story on their own. As has been previously noted on the forum, the replacement filter (screen) is a bit too long. You will have to make it fit as best as you can (it is about an 1/8 inch too long).
(See this thread for additional information: https://farmallcub.com/community/threads/farmall-cub-touch-control-block-rebuild.118209/post-945651)...

Below are pages from the Cub and LoBoy parts manual, showing the Touch Controls.
Page 10-2 shows the early block, and page 10-5 shows the later block.
In the picture of the early blocks and parts, they don't all have the parts in the rectangle and square.
