Hi everyone, have a cub 107 and want to change out the skinny front wheels. Anyone know what I need? Does it need longer spindles etc. ? Thanks in advance

You just need a set of wide NF front wheels. Spindles are the same.

if you were closer i would swap ya! I would rather have narrow tires for my 104 with front blade. Wide tires seem to catch on edges of dirt piles i have been pushing around and ripping the wheel out of my hands.

There's an old farmer adage of making sure your thumbs are on the outside of the steering wheel.

I like the narrow tires better.. They steer easier and follow the rows better in the garden..

I agree about the old farmer saying.. keep your thumbs out of the way!!

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.
