Stick one of the hardware store bolts thru the head and see if there are enough threads sticking out the bottom. No big deal.

I did that. If I use only the original washer there aren't enough threads but if I use a grade 8 washer from TSC it looks like I'll be fine. I'll get a pic tonight of how it looks with the washers.

Lew, I was thinking that too but I don't think I have anything that will tap a grade 8 bolt.

Sam, I thought about using the grade 8 threaded rod but I wasn't sure on how to cut it.

You can tap grade 8 with a standard die.
You can cut grade 8 threaded rod with a chop saw or a hacksaw.

Probably if it didn't say "Made in China" on the die.

Todd,

I had a Onan headbolt break before.. It wasn't any problem to cut more threads on a new grade 8 bolt with some good Vermont American USA dies.

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.
