Aluminum front axle
 
Did Any Cub come with a cast Aluminum front axle? Just curious.

I don't believe so. Maybe on the newer models. I don't keep tracking on tractors much newer than 1990. :biggrin2:

And if it were,:beerchug: I'm sure it would not be cast, it would be Forged and a high grade @ that.

And why would you be of that opinion?
A sand casting is very weak, a forging is much stronger,
It would be my thinking that a casting would not hold up.
but I haven't seen any testing results so it would be just some experience.
