1864 Broken Transmission Bolts
Hey Guys,
I'm currently working an 1864 I got recently. I was super excited when it started up easy but then realized the steering box was leaking everywhere and didn't work. Then while rebuilding the steering box, I realized that rear end had two broken bolts where it attaches on the axle housing. My question now is what bolts I should put back in (oem or higher grade?), if they need to be torqued higher than the factory, and if I need to replace all of the seals or just use rtv. I don't know if I will keep the tractor, but I'm assuming that if I do the Xtreme brace will probably be worth it. Emerson

Yes, Xtreme braces will solve the issue. The bolts do not break because they are not strong enough, they break because they get loose and no one checks to see if they are tight. Then they break and break parts of the hydro.

I think there are 6 or 7 shaft seals. I would replace all of those. You have to split the case the replace one of them. There is a cork gasket between the hydro and rear case. There should be several threads showing this.
The rear cover has a gasket and I use a small smear of RTV on it.

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.
