Default Cub 125 differential question

Hey guys since I have the transaxle out of my 125 at the moment for linkage and relief valve rebuild, I took a peek at the diff. Is there a company that offers a locker, “positive traction” or “limited slip” diff for these IH carriers? In my younger days I spent quite a bit of time at the drag strip and posi was the way to go. Open diffs kinda suck. Any ideas?

You could weld the spider gears together, if you do that forget about making sharp turns, I have done that in my pullers. I heard guys talking about shimming the spiders but not familiar with that. If it is a mower or yard worker I would just put wheel weights, fluid filled tires or hanging weight on it to get more traction. Don't know what kind of tires you are running but AG tires or turf tires with chains and some weight work fine. Bill

Went to s PD once where there was a fellow that had done that to the diff.
Next time I noticed him he was hauling off the Cub with a busted front spindle!!

I have Ags on the rear and ribbed on front. It’s a worker on our property so I guess I’ll just have the tires filled. The local green and orange dealers provide that service.

I bought a valve from Amazon to fill my tires and just used gravity. Took about an hour per tire to fill with RV antifreeze. I found a chart online for exact volume for my tire size.

We filled a carrier with babbet once on the advice of 1/4 miler. Wasn’t a good idea for an old Scout with big tires in the mud.

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.
