Brake pad replacement 1984 CCC 582
What started this: my brakes seemed to be spongy, so I pulled the rear wheels to check them. I could rock both assemblies side to side a lot. Pads looked to be were worn, angled front to rear. After searching the internet and not finding actual pictures or measurements of the brake components to compare with mine, I decided to document what I did. There may be some disputes on the info here, but it’s what I used and it worked for me.
I'll break down what I did in several replies.I wasn't sure my 582 has the correct brake spring-Cub Cadet 732-3047 or brake rod-Cub Cadet 711-3143. I decided to make pads from 1/8” T x 2”W 6061 T6 aluminum flat bar from McMaster-Carr, based on wear of aluminum clutch discs I’ve used in pulling tractors. 1/8" X 2” 89015K231 $11.08 I disassembled the brakes and cleaned them with Dawn and a stainless steel brush. I didn’t see any excessive wear. Using a 1/8” drill bit, I drilled the rivets out and then scuffed the backing plates with a Dremel tool using a tapered grinding stone to obtain a rough surface for the J&B Weld. I'll break down what I did in several replies to this thread. I referenced these: https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/...ad.php?t=14429 http://home.earthlink.net/~stanner42...rakeReline.pdf I also referenced Brian Miller's "Putting the Brakes on a Cub Cadet" and Parts Tree "Cub Cadet 1604". https://www.partstree.com/parts/cub-...garden-tractor

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.
