I was told a while back that there are some other solenoids that will replace the stock cub solenoids. Does anyone know what other solenoids will work? Old Ford, VW?

ELECTRICALLY, any variation of a starter relay will work in a garden tractor application.
MECHANICALLY, most will fit. I just installed an "old Ford" relay in a 104 and it fit perfectly on the dash tower studs. The question becomes if the current WIRING to the relay will easily fit on the new relay studs and if the wiring will be long enough to reach to posts on the new relay. In my case, I was redoing the wiring anyway, so changing the relay style was not an issue.

I'm going to be rewiring as well, I just need an economical replacement vs the over priced Ih model.

Yes the Cub ones are WAY out there. Couple good options. Parts stores sell one for $14 or so that fits pretty good. Its actually the same as the x82 series. Also TSC has a Briggs one that fits in there with no real modifying (I don't remember expanding any wires when installing them). It's roughly $20 if I remember right.

The WF and 82 series solenoid can be replaced directly by the solenoid from an early '90s Ford Explorer (I think). It is identical except for one additional terminal that is not used.

Yes and even farther back into the 60's
Seems like the last one I got from Napa was about $12 and I did find one with only 1 small terminal, remembering it was a spade terminal and not a stud/nut. |

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.
