Default Question on Draglink
Last night I was taking some parts off to be cleaned up and prepped for painting and I removed the draglink. After removing the ends I noticed that one of the threaded ends has a slight bend to it. I don't think this is normal but I thought I would ask. The parts lookup and the manual appear to be straight but looking at something that small in a picture and the way my eyes are I can't tell!

Its not supposed to be bent but most of them are, if your real careful you can straighten it but it wont hurt if you leave it alone.

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.
