Bolt sealer? or gasket sealant? Not sure what you are asking about.

Either one. Looks like what CC used was something akin to plumbers putty in both applications..

I may be missing something but I'm still not sure what we're talking about, I've never found sealer of any kind on a Cub Cadet... anything.

Neither have I. But, I've resorted to using a very thin coat of ultra black permatex on rearend and oil pan gaskets to ensure no leaks. This after several leaking rear ends despite careful installations.

The gray stuff squeezing out between the hydro/differential case. The last two I've had out had the same stuff there and on the bolts on the rear cover.

The bolts on both rear ends also had some type of black sealer on all bolts that held the axle housings to the differential case.

Seems like also, I've seen a CC part listing for bulk sealer to use on hydro differential.

Maybe not?

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.
