Thats a good idea. I've helped do that with chains and load binders on BIG tires that didn't want to seat against the rim.
Myself, I use inner tubes on anything that is not an automobile.

Can't get the dang things to seal to take air. I've contemplated using the ether and fire technique. Anyone against it? I usually try to stay away from explosive (literally) solutions, but everything I have watched on youtube and read about online appears to work great. Of course I will be safe and keep a distance. Thoughts?

I wouldnt try that with ether but Ronsonal lighter fluid works very well.

I tried the ratchet strap technique, but I didn't put soap or anything on the rim. I imagine that would have helped. I'll give that a try tonight prior to doing the big bang method. haha.

Thank you sir. I'll look into that if the ratchet strap with soap doesn't work tonight. My wiring harness was delivered so I MAY have a running tractor prior to going to sleep tonight. *fingers crossed*

Alright. She's running... BUT, I have to start her up with a jump starter. She runs great when on the starter, but as soon as I take the jumpers off she dies. My battery is 100% crap. BUT shouldn't it continue to run on the generator? I'm assuming I've got a bad generator. Any other possibilities?

Either starter/generator or voltage regulator.
If I had to hazard a guess, it’d be voltage regulator/wiring.

If your battery is that bad, it will dead short the charging system. Replace the battery and see if it charges after that. A bad battery can cook other good components.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
