This is THE PLACE for all things Cub Cadet... From the 1961 (or so ) vintage Original Model, through the current MTD made machines.
My late dad worked for IH for 31 years, and my first full-time job was A&H mechanic (assembler & handler...fancy name for " gets all the crap jobs no one else will do") at a local IH dealer. I must have assembled at least 50 Cubs that year, hence the nickname Cubby Guy.
There is a depth of knowledge right here about Cub Cadets you just cannot find anywhere else.
