I had a PM about an old thread of mine and I thought I would post what I have done with this project!!
Quote: Originally Posted by CADplans, I read an old post of yours about how you relined brake pads with aluminum. How did that work out? I would like to do my 1450 that way. What type of adhesive did you use. Did you leave nubs on them to fit into the holes in the brake plates. I was going to ask the guys in the tool room at work make me two round ones for each pad and have the nub made to fit the hole. Do you remember how thick you made them. I know its a lot of questions, but thanks for any ideas or help. I used JB Weld and LOTS of clamps. About 3 on each shoe. I cut .100" 6061 T6 sheet to the same shape as the original pads. This is disc, not internals right!!?? No concern about the holes in the shoes, they just fill with epoxy. They have worked GREAT!! I have 15 to 20 hours of use on the aluminum shoes, all stop and go blade work on steep grades, I have not had to adjust yet. That is unheard of with stock shoes. UPDATE!! I have not posted about it yet, but, I also epoxied .04" thick stainless steel to the back of the shoe so the pusher has a different material to push on, much lower friction!! Now they even work better.

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.
