Model 2 tiller help
Over the winter I aquired a cub cadet 127 with a model 2 tiller, mule drive , and gear box. The guy had it all hooked up once but it was taken off when I got it and being new to this I am unsure how it should all fit together. My main concern being that I started to remove the bolts to hook the gear box up because I thought it would be easy and at that time oil started to come out of the bolt holes. I'll attach some photos, the oil looks ruff and I hate doing things twice so if some of you have some photos that would help. I may also need a new gasket and a reference on what oil to use in the rear end. Thanks for the help.

That will happen.
Sounds like it's time for a new gasket, easy to make with a sheet of gasket mat'l available at any auto parts store. Was it showing signs of leaking there before you removed the bolts? Other than draining the rear end, if you have a lift table or some other way to elevate the rear of the tractor, it's easy to do by running the front wheels off the table and securing the tractor to the table w/the rear wheels on the end and slowly raise the table high enough so the fluid will not run out once the cover is removed. But then you may get lucky and install the gear box and not have a leak once it is tightened back up. DO NOT overtighten the bolts and DO NOT use bolts that are too long or risk breaking the tapped holes as they re dead end. If you break the end out inside the case you will then have BIG problems to contend with.

There was no signs of leaking before, just when I removed the bolts. But that rear end oil looks nasty and would be a good idea to take it off and clean everything out, spray it with some cleaner and what not. But I was wondering if there was a gasket I could buy that was made for this rear end. Also wondering on what oil everyone uses in their rear ends.

Got lucky and the local shop sold me one for $16.63, saves me the trouble of tracking stuff down. Now I need a filter, oil, and figure out how to hook the tiller up.

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.
