I see no reason that the hole in the housing couldn't welded as long as the internal machined areas are OK.

But thats the thing - it wore through from the inside. I believe this internal shoulder holds a thrust bearing. Thrust bearing went and it went right on through the housing. (first pic is half 1, third pic is half 2 which is in better shape but still some damage on the surface where the bearing seats)
If I start welding then the internal shoulder would have to be re-machined. After getting it cleaned up (a little at least), Im wondering how a new bearing (bushing?) will seat. Maybe ok.... it only needs to sit in there. I have some aircraft epoxy that Im wondering wouldnt seal the crack and hold the bearing in place. (its an aluminum filled epoxy from masterbond, so I need to see how it will expand with temp in comparison to the housing). Have used it on a number of other things with good results. Although as I type this I think I saw a replacement housing for $45 ish. Better option. Im looking at a gear, the housing, the bushings, some misc spacers/washers (some are plastic) and it would be in decent shape again. Worth doing. Will inventory and source all these components and then move onto the other gear box. |

That's what I would do.

the housing is the spendy piece.
Misc bearings and gear and seals is going to run around $100. Ok Then the housing (one side only) is another $100. Then a complete assembly all inclusive is just over $300. I havent taken it apart but from turning and trying to find backlash/bearing movement, the second gearbox seems in pretty good shape. So it comes down to what I want to do to this one to get it back going... decisions decisions. |

In my case this is referring to speed at which I complete projects. Trust me, its not to early for me to be starting. |

I'm the guy who repaired the fan splines in the 450 snowblower last year. I know I have the gearbox half you need. If you want I can check and see if it is in good shape.

Well, this thing is in pretty bad shape. But a member here graciously sold me some parts that will work nicely. Still some pieces to order, but its going to go back together one way or the other. We will see how long it goes for - run it!

Just a spray can - wasnt my first choice but I didnt have any auto paint in black and I wasnt going to cook these with powder because Im using the seals that came with it.
Pretty much every seal running surface is questionable... but back together it goes. |

One last one. Need a couple seals, and bolt this back together and fill it...
Need to get this box put back together to move onto the other problem areas (there are many) A rational person would have just scrapped this thing. But I never was very smart.... |

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.
