Hey everyone.
I am new to the forum and very new to Cub Cadets so work with me! With a goal of having a runaround tractor I purchased a Cub Cadet last month for $50. I started a thread in December regarding a LT 1715 that I picked up locally with a deck. It was running but the condition was not fully disclosed and it has some major wiring issues. It runs when I jump it using the Starter but the PTO and Ignition switch are a work in progress. Through my research and help from this forum I am still trying to fix that but will sell the tractor when finished or stuck. Because of you enablers, I immediately realized that I wanted a Garden Tractor and have been on the look out for one. I found a 124 in nice shape locally and I will be bringing it home tomorrow. It starts immediately and runs really well. I was looking for something that could pull around my log splitter and other yard attachments instead of using the zero turn and I would like something that can push snow since we are on a private culdesac with no plow service and I have a decent size driveway (concrete and a gravel horseshoe) This was the reasoning behind the purchase of the 1715 anyway. For $500 total, the 124 is coming with the following - 48" Mower Deck - QA 36 Snow Thrower - Not pretty but works well and seems tight but could use some paint - 42 " Plow Blade - 3 Point rear lift (parts look complete, not installed) - wheel weights - Tire Chains Spare Parts Bin - Extra starter/generator - Carburetor - Muffler - Blades x3 - Some other odds and ends I am hoping to have better luck with this one and I would love to have it look like some of your tractors. I will get some pics up later tonight. Hopefully I did better on this purchase and based on the prices for the attachments, I think I will be ok (providing they all work). Anyone from Maryland? |

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.
