Default In the land on snow tomorrow , my 1450 is leaking
I just went to my garage to look at my tractors and found a heck of a red puddle under my 1450. Just a passing glance revealed that there was fluid dripping off the disc brake onto the wheel then to the tire leading to the pool on the floor. Does it just go without saying the axle seal failed? Last Saturday I was blowing snow and did see some drips and thought it was related to my exhaust heating up the snow thrower and drips from that deal but, it werent.

Wondering if replacing an axle seal involves removing rear cover, pulling a spring clip off the axle end, pulling the axle out, removing and replacing the seal in the end of the axle carrier, and re-installation of the axle. Is there any reason to pull the axle carrier off the center housing? Is it that easy?

I am on a mission now. Must assume that the seals are the original ones and after the decades they have been holding up their end of the deal its OK in my book to give them their RIP and put some new ones in to do some work. Should this be a common dealer part?

I have been moving some snow with the blower recently without chains on the tires. Yeah, the tires have been spinning alot in subzero weather. Guess its time to do some bonding with an IH product.

Sometimes the axle bearing will wear out and that in turn will cause the seal to fail.

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.
