Cleaned up the tire and rim tonight, had lots of fine rust dust on the rim so I really gave it a good scrub. Aired it back up to the max psi the tire can take (28 psi), hope it grabs! Will see in the morning!

We have changed many tires right here in our garage using hand tools and after cleaning up the bead area of the rim we use a little dish detergent around the bead and the tire seems to slip into place much better than if trying to get it to seat dry. We also remove the valve stem insert and pump the tire up till it pops into position and when the chuck is removed the air immediately escapes. Replace the valve insert and pump it up to the proper pressure. If we use a tube we coat the tube with body powder, clean out the inside of the tire and insert the tire half way on the rim, insert the tube, align the stem with the hole, remove the valve gut and screw the removal tool onto the valve and carefully install the tire without pinching the tube. We then use a pair of needle nose vise grips to secure the valve and pump it up to seat the bead. Remove the vise grips, insert the valve gut and pump to the proper pressure.

That's good advice Paul!
I want to add, that when using tubes, it is a good idea to air them up then let them completely deflate. Then air them up again. The baby powder will make the tube slide, but when inflated they sometimes still bind/kink. Deflating and re-inflating usually relaxes the tube, shifts it again and helps avoid this problem. A "kink" in a tube can result in a hole, thus a flat tire. This process is not necessary when not using tubes.

Good news, the bead held! Looks like I'm good to go. I did do the soap trick before I mounted it and saw no leaks, but I wanted to be sure that the tractors weight on it wouldn't re-trigger the leak. All was well when I checked it this morning. Looks like I can hang up the bicycle pump for now!

I agree Jonathon. In the process I use after getting the tire mounted I always remove the valve gut when I pressurize the tire the first time so once the tire seats the air all comes out. I replace the valve gut and repressurize so it gets inflated, deflated and reinflated as a hedge against any folds or kinks. The main reason I use needle nose vise grips is so the valve stem has no chance to pop back into the tire. I had that happen once and the valve gut was still in. I thought for a while that I was going to have to put a hole in the new tube to deflate it. Fortunately I did not have to do that.

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.
