look like boat trailer fenders.
Betchya the front hitch was for moving boat trailers too.

You might want to unbolt and save that front hitch.

Yeah he said that fenders were homemade/tsc fenders although I'm wondering/have been told that they may be O fenders that were modified but I'm not sure as this is my first one. And my buddy that picked it up for me said he had a small boat and jet ski trailer and lived on a lake so I don't doubt it. It's welded on the front though, pretty heavy stuff.

Good score on the O's! That rear end looks like crap.

With what you said about boats and stuff, looks like they might have used the O to "put in" with. That rear end looks like it's been under water.

Yeah buddy I'm thinking so too. It cleaned up as well as it could although it's difficult to get the sludge out of the reduction housing. I took off the shifter and poured a bunch of diesel in it and washed out the rear but the reduction housing has no where to do it. I'm hopeful that me running a mixture of diesel and hydraulic oil will churn it up and thin it out enough to pass through the drain holes into the main body of the rear end when I change it again.

Mike I think I'd just pull it out and take the front cover off. With that much water you know the bearings are junk.

Yeah it's a giant Delco coil with a built in heat sink deal. The coil wire actually screw into the top of it, kinda neat but I'm changing it

Absolutely, I consider you to be the "O"-be Wan of Originals. I think we have quite the presence at Flywheelers with cubs, hoping I can at least get the 800 done by November but the O's are going to jump in front of the line after that for restos. I can definitely see why you like them so much, very unique

Most likely the axle tubes are full of crap also, and it's not coming out unless you take the tubes off to clean them. But if your restoring it I would imagine your putting in new gaskets anyway.

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.
