Default Fixing Leaky Rear Dribbles

Had a fun day working on my 2182. Got to use the Haban easy deck removal tool. Makes taking the early style Haban decks off a breeze. It’s a little pricy but it works awesome. Then I pulled the rear and pump out. I thought the cork gasket was the cause of my oil leak but now it looks like the seal on the trunnion shaft is shot. So not only do I have to replace the cracked front cover but I have to disassemble the pump to replace the seal. At this point I have decided to replace every seal and be done with it. I have a couple ideas on how to beef up the mounting for the fragile aluminum rear that is prone to breaking. Have to see how that goes. Got the rear cleaned up, on the bench and ready for surgery.

I would almost equate that lifting equipment to cheating, but only because I am envious.

Do those tractors have rear troubles as well. I thought with the beefed up axle tubes they may have also addressed the "loose rear" problem. I see u have the yellow rear cover plate, I heard that is big help to stop twisting of the frame. I have that same rear and axle tubes in one of my 2072's and it seems to stay tight. Keep us posted of your upgrades. Dave

This girl has been run hard all her life. Pretty sure it was in a commercial lawn service application before the zero turns became the rage. It had been traded in for a big zero turn. One of the front mounts is broken. I have a cover to replace it. It will get some needed TLC and enjoy a life of leisure.Pic is the broken mount.

Can the casting piece be heli-arced back in place. I have one that looks just like that.

A friend has a Super he kept breaking bolts in the rear housing. He fabbed an aluminum plate that captured the two bolts in the housing at the rear and then bolted to the frame under the foot rests.

Didn't work but he tried.

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.
