Default 1650 front axle and spindle variation question

Hey guys,
I have bot a later 1650 with 1" spindles and an earlier 1450 with 3/4" spindles... Is one preferred over the other? Also, did the axle change between the two era's??? I'm planning to sell the extra parts but want to keep the best for myself

Thanks!

The 1" spindles are preferred just for the Heavy duty use you can do with them, such as a FEL. The 3/4" are easier to find rims for and you can use the narrow type front rims with the 3/4" setup.

Boy I can relate to that. I have a 2084 torn apart, a snow blower torn down for repainting and a mower deck torn down. I have a two car garage and both vehicles have to sit outside. At least all the other tractors are in the shed.

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.
