I tell them the model of the tractor and they usually run right back and grab the part, only double checking the computer if I ask them too, or they are really usure, which rarely happens. And if they do have a minor screw up, they are very forgiving about it. Once they ordered the wrong seal for me, and they admitted it was their fault, so they ordered me the right one free of charge...its hard to find sevice like that anymore. They also have barns full of cub parts from complete parts tractor, to piles of rear ends, engine, you name it. I made arrangements with one of the owners (brothers) to buy the hydro lift components from a parts 1811 they had in the barn. He told me I could bring the tractor home, strip off what I need from it, and bring it back to him for $100...this would be the rockshaft, lift cylinder, valve, hydro pump, dash..and pretty much anything I wanted except the engine.

Guess I've gotten spoiled....

That's a great dealer!

My local cub dealer is about as friendly as a wall and talks about as much as one. Now on the other hand he has a picture of himself sitting on his dad's 70 and his prices are pretty good.

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.
