I know that is an option but that is a lot of filing. I have seen thin pattern washers just can't find any to save me!

You only need to modify one pair of slots, it would take what, 3 minutes?

Just ordering a washer on line will take longer.

well I got the nut fixed up and everything is together but I noticed last nite when I was putting the subframe on the tractor, the front part that goes into the quick attach point (circled in the pic) is drilled for a cotter.
Are these supposed to have a cotter in them after putting into the quick attach? Reason I ask is when it is mounted the subframe wants to slide side to side...it would make sense to have a pin but once in the quick attach there doesn't seem to be enough room to get a pin in it!!!!

I've run machines both ways, with and without a cotter. I ran on 2 1811's and a 1050 without one and never had a problem. That being said, I'm using washers and cotter pins on the 1864 its on now to help "lock it in", side to side wise. It seems like using cotter pins and washers helps to take up the slack and stop potential frame twisting, if you happen to hit something sideways. That's how I see it, at least.

That is what I was thinking but as I said there isn't much room for a cotter let alone a washer just seems to me that the pins that go into the quick attach aren't long enough to accomodate this.

When I put the snow blade on my 147 (similar but slightly different set up) I had to bend in the upright mounting tabs to eliminate the lateral slack.

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.
