Hydro (plastic) fan replacement idea
After doing some trailer work with the cub the other day, I decided to give it a spring washing. With just a little tap of a scrub brush, I pop off one of the fins on the fan. It's not old and brittle, its not even 1 yr old!!! So then I thought, well maybe I'll find an aluminum one and make a hub for it. It turns out not too many manufacturers made hydros with aluminum ones...(maybe a finger/liability issue i assume?) Anyways, I'm at the boneyard today and saw the rearend from a 316..it has a steel fan on a stub shaft working off the back of the charge pump, which is the same pump as the cubs....has anyone put one of these on a cub?? I'm trying to think if it will clear all things, seat pan, rearend, etc....but was just wondering if anyone has, as it seemed like maybe a much better piece than brittle a#% plastic!!
thanks fellas

The Narrow Frame Cubs had a metal fan.

As long as you find a fan that will fit with a 5/8" hub ( 5/8" shaft ) that has the right diameter, that directs the air over the Hydro unit ( right direction ), you will have succeeded. IIRC, the original IH Fan blades were aluminum but were replaced by the plastic ones.

thanks gentleman.. i shouldve taken a picture.. since the fan works off the back of the charge pump, i assume it must be as a "puller" fan.. which actually makes more sense to me just because theres more cooling fins on the back of the pump and its out of the way... the only thing im wondering about though is if the fender pan or battery box is going to be in the way?? i will dig into this some.. the roll pin on it was not going anywhere and i didnt really have the right size punch on me.. so it will have to be another day.. keep you posted

I have a JD317 and thought about doing the same thing but the Cubs do not have enough clearance for the fan behind the pump. The top of the trans sits higher and the battery sits down too low.

The 316 rear end case is a lot different, on the cub the case sits too close to the stub shaft to fit a fan on the rear. ( Sam beat me to it, lol)
 Here's a pic of a steel fan and shroud setup I saved from a parts tractor, I haven't seen many of them, most seem to be plastic.

thats why this place is the greatest!!! thanks gents...actually i was looking through some old resto photos and i saw that too...bummer....well, maybe now i try to fabricate one out of aluminum...the old monkey wards i got is in need of one also, and it has an aluminum one...looks like someone took a hammer to it..it just bothered me on the cub..i could see if its 40yrs old and pops off like that, but like i said, its not even a yr old!! im not too excited to just keep throwing 17 bucks at it for that crap either..of course, maybe i should just be more careful, but i dont like "delicate" sh$@ on tractors!!

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.
