Well Tom, I know how that goes, one thing leads to another, and so on, but what ever needs to be fixed will get fixed. My father pounded something in my head years ago.
He would say, "You do it right, the best you can, or don't do it at all".[/QUOTE]

Well Todd, your father sounds like a very wise man. That is the same philosophy my dad had, he was a perfectionist in every thing he did. I guess that must have rubbed off over the years on both of us. Good luck.
Tom

Today's excitement. Did you ever get that feeling that you should have just left something where you found it?
Pulled the fender pan, and ended up with a big surprise. A hardware store worth of nuts and washers... Also the tractors been "patched" poorly by someone. Went to pull the battery tray out and the damn thing was welded in three out the four bolts. Plus a bead along both backsides of the tray. (some peoples kids)
So ended up grinding out the welds, and yeah, goobered up the tray, so that'll need some patching before it goes back in. Cut the bolts off to get the pan out. Got lucky, I was able to turn them up enough to get a vice-grips on it to get them out.
Pulled the cat 0 off. Now at least I can see some of the things I'll be up against.

Looks like you got some free hardware today, what is up with the weld on the outside of the frame ?
It is a very dirty tranny, gotta find out where it is leaking.

Yep, kind of feel the same way about my 1811. Its getting shoved around while I do work that MUST be done.

What is up with that patch on the frame, did the frame break? What was the purpose of welding the tray in place?

Free hardware, good! Patch on the frame, not so good! I'll be taking a look inside of the frame when I can get it washed up. And get a better look once I remove the trans...

Wish I had the answers myself John. Seems a tad on the WTF scale to me.

"What exactly is the plan with this 1". Well... Fix what "needs" fixing, and put it in the fleet. Either another grass cutter, or designated snow thrower, or??? I just like these CCC tractors for some reason. They are easy to work on, and the go lever is on the right side which makes them SO much easier for me to operate.
Okay, part of that statement isn't exactly 100% true. Some of the tractor is "easy" to work on.

This one looks like it will be a challenge. This one rates right near the top on PO mods.

I bet the PO thinks he did a great job of repairing it. He probably thinks his repairs are better than what the engineers designed in. He must be related to the guy that I bought my last 1872 from.
Good luck with this one.
Tom

Or the PO knew what he did to it and that he would need to take it apart to fix it so he sold 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.
