Default 1650 cooling fan
Has anybody ever used a metal cooling fan for the hydro like on the 123s for a quietline. Or would it even work I uavnt looked to much into it I just thought it might be a little more resistant to breakage. The one on my 1650 now is broken so I have to.swap it.eather way I also have both the plastic one and a metal laying here. What are your opinions

I know it's not quite the same but at least one of my 149's has the metal fan.

I'll probably end up giving it a shot. I just didn't know if it would push enough air to keep it cool while mowing. Any other ideas?

i need to replace my fan too. the last time i had the tunnel off there was a blade missing. the plastic seems very brittle. i do not know if the new ones are brittle or the plastic has just aged. i would say mine is the original, so if a new plastic one lasts 30+ years ill be ok.

Why are they breaking? What are they hitting? You're Hydraulic Lift Linkage? With the cover off the drive shaft, engine running, ( be careful ) work your lift lever and watch your cylinder and its linkage move. There's a part that hindges before it actually starts to lift your deck. (float) It can be locked in a streight position by moving the pin into the other hole.. I broke a brand new fan myself, thought I had it back far enough on the shaft but that hydro lift caught it , GONE! ( BE CAREFUL ) That cover is on there for a reason!!!!! The next new fan I bought I took a 1/4 inch off the tip of each blade with the bench grinder for clearence. Good Luck ! ( this was on my 149 )

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.
