First, Welcome to our Forum.......

The weak spot on the Quietlines (which the 1650 is part of) was the Motor (ISO mount) system.

There is a easy fix for this. See link....Modification

A 1650 can be a really nice machine. Get your motor mounts in good shape, doublecheck all the driveshaft couplers, keep good HYtrans in it and do all the regular greasing, adjusting, etc recommended in the manuals and it should be a bulletproof unit. Also if nobody has gone thru the steering that is another area to inspect closely, from the box to the tie rod ends to the front axle pivot pin.

I can vouch for the pivot pin thing! Do a search on the forum for 1650. There are a bunch of threads.

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.
