I've given my 108 new rubber all around (the old tires were the original ones) and replaced the bolts I'm using for wheel studs on the rear hubs with ones I modified by filing down the heads of the new bolts. Radioguy41 kindly pointed out that my first attempt last year left the end of the bolts recessed in the lug nuts. The new tires are all tubed and inflated to 18psi, which I think puts me in the ball park on where they should be.

Thanks Jay, I'll drop them down some more to 14psi and keep the liquid fill advise in mind.

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.
