I thought about those drainback holes. I am afraid of breaking the bolts as CC rep said. However my plan as soon as reenforcement get here is to run tractor around get everything good and warm,hot. Then remove the bolts. Figuring aluminum expands and helping with breaking bolts loose without breaking them. Anyone have any other ideas to prevent breakage? Thanks Bob. I will get pics. Also should I buy new bolts,and what strength?

You will not snap a steel bolt off in an aluminum hole. But if you're not careful with the wrench you will strip the threads in the aluminum on re assembly.....ask me how I know

Bob drilling the drain back holes is an easy mod, just pull the axle tubes and drill a 3/8" hole or holes depending on the style main case that you have. Some have a little hump at the bottom so I drill a hole on each side those without the hump I just drill 1 hole. Just try to get the hole as close to the bottom as you can. See attached pics.

Thank you. That helps alot knowing different designs. Have you any advice on ways to make sure I dont break bolts? CC rep told me bolts can break. I was thinking of buying new bolts 'unless' the bolt threads are unique to cc aluminum casting.

If you are putting the rear brace kit on that Sam designed and everybody and their brother sells now you need to check and see if the seller included new bolts. You need to lay your existing bolts out and add the thickness of the braces to your new bolt length. You will also need to use some Permatex #2 on the bolts that go into the rear case if they are open to the case.
Here is a brace kit I installed on one of my 982's with the rear hitch. DSCN2225.jpg DSCN2224.jpg

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.
