How would you fix this?
The hood brace on my 125 broke. I know the right way to fix it would be to weld it, but I don’t want to burn the paint off the outside of the hood. Any other ideas what I can do? I thought about an epoxy like JB Weld, but I don’t think it would hold up too long.

I own a spot welder. Some of the better rental places will rent them. If you can rent one it would leave the smallest amount of damage.

Bend a piece of thick siding or other sheetmetal to an "L" shape,, some piece of metal close to the thickness of the hood. If you can not find that, a thin piece of angle steel, with legs that are at least one inch can be substituted. you must have at least 4 square inches of area that will contact EACH part. Bend it until you have a good fit,, apply the JB Weld to the at least 8 square inches of contact area. I would apply it to all 4 surfaces, prior to assembly, to insure no spot remains "dry" After curing, that lap joint fix will be easily as strong as the previous tack welds. Large lap joints do very well at resisting vibration,, I have fixed many things that normally are considered "weld only" using the large surface area trick.

Its missing on my Dad's 100. Been thinking about bending a new one and epoxying it in place. We had to run some cosmetic grooves in some large stainless sheet metal strips at work. These were glued/epoxied in place in the entry of a hospital, some were even overhead. There are some rather high tech "glues" on the market these days. Maybe somewhere like McMaster carries such.

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.
