Ive seen people use hose clamps arount the top of the casting too....Ive had luck without using anything..you might try dry fitting it before drilling holes into it to see if screws or rivets are really necassary......

I had the same problem. I cleaned everything up very well, sanded and primered the tube, painted it, then tapped it back into place with a block of wood and a hammer (after I rebuilt the insides of the box, of course). Apparently the couple of layers of paint on the tube were enough to tighten the tolerances. My tube is solid now.
I would hesitate to use something like JB Weld on it. There may come a time you want to disassemble it. If you have to reinforce it, I'd go with Matt's suggestion of pop-rivets. Not a "stock" look, but it would work and it could be undone, if necessary.

@Therie, the JB was suggested to me by my grandfather as a possiblity (being that he lives in Illinois and i live in TN and isnt able to see it), but i wanted everyones opinion to see what would work the best. the paint im using (rattle can) is pretty thick so im more than certain ill get a nice tight seal when it all goes back together.:biggrin2.gif:
@Jeff, i agree i want to refrain from drilling any holes unless necessary and clamps would make me feel like i had left it unfinished. Thanks for the advice guys! ill keep you all posted!

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.
