There are a few issues with this. First thing is that the axel itself was worn, and even a new pin would have been sloppy. The complications are that I need to rely on others, and because I don't take short cuts or half step things.
The spot weld was likely just a redundant step to help insure the connection. When ground off there was no getting that bushing out without cutting it out of the frame. The bushing needed to be bored out, axel bored out, and a new oversized pin turned. Although I could have easily ground the weld, and removed the old bushings, I don't have a lathe, and I don't trust the parts I saw on Ebay. They may be fine quality, but the cost to have someone locally make them would have been the same, and I could insure the end result would be miles better. the axel will be sized to the pin, and I will have the rear bushing made wider, and it will be a tight slip fit. I dont know if the Ebay set up is sized right, or the fitment tolerance, and it would do nothing for my axel. To be hones't I was surprised that these weren't brazed. They furnace brazed several other parts on the tractor, and it seemed like an obvious way of attachment. Just off the top of my head I recall the following two parts being brazed; Driveshaft hub-engine side & linkage lever from shaft to master link connection on hydraulic lift. Mike

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.
