We all have different thoughts on things which is fine, but my thoughts would be to get the starter rebuilt to keep things original and then look for a different cub for the chores around your place. I say this simply because of the rarity of the 800. Then when time and $$$ come around, you could restore the 800 and be proud of it. You don't have to spend a fortune to get a good cub, just last year I bought a super nice 1210 with 650 hours for 5 bills. Just a thought and strictly MY opinion.

I took the starter to a friend who works on em part time and he put new brushes in it and it still wouldn't work so he took it back apart while I was there and ohmed the armature at the commutater and it was open on 2 segments. That's why I asked if anyone had ever had an armature rewound. he didn't know how much that would cost. Just an FYI for anyone who needs brushes for the small starter, he used brushes that fit a boat power trim unit with just a little filling to make them fit in the brush holder however I failed to ask specifics about type but I will see him again soon and post that info if anyone is interested. I don't really want to alter the frame because of the rarity. I actually mowed with it some today and it did great. I just wrap a rope around the clutch assembly and she usually starts on the first pull. The tractor is missing a few things: side panels headlights and switch, choke cable, deck height cam knob, not sure if the muffle is stock, and I think the seat is aftermarket. Ill try to get some pics up tomorrow.

just talked to my friend that works for a company that repairs electric train engines and he said that $500 to rewind that is crazy, you need to get another opinion.

Here are the mods I did to fit a big starter in and leave the tractor looking original. You do not need to cut the frame, but gently "roll" it out. When the side panel is installed, it overhangs the frame and you cannot even notice the change. You do need to notch a section from the lip of the side panel, but be careful to only cut back as far as the frame will cover. I picked up this "practice" for these big starters from Paul Bell on a 800 I got from him. Have done this a few times now with success. Attached is some photos of the mods before completely assembled, I will try to get some of the finished product soon

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.
