They look like bolts made for the rear lifts like on the later quietlines and 82 series. They used these bolts instead of the rod all the way through.

Most people think that "Frankenstein Bolts" are the bolts for the QA on the front of the frame, but we are usually refering to the bolts for the rear lift.

I can make those front attachment bolts too.

I'd make them with a bolt, spacer and washer for a workable piece instead of machining a larger head bolt and chasing threads.

Thats a great idea, with time and wear if it gets a flat spot you can replace the spacer instead of the whole bolt . I made a bolt the other day myself...
I picked up a 42 inch deck that the po must have lost the spindle bolt for..
So i that how hard could it be , after looking at cost of new and shipping
I decided to give it a try....drilled a hole from thread end through head of bolt
I think it was a 3/16 but I'd have to check to be sure . Then drilled a bigger hole in the bolt head and tapped it for the zirk. Thank goodness for drill press's .

I'm not trying to dog your work, just want to know... What materiel did you use to make the bolt ? Also the threads look shallow in the picture, but pictures can be misleading... or is that the normal thread depth ?

edit... (% thread)

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.
