It's either full factory or full custom for me, no in between.

Someone please tell me what I am missing here! When I took the steering wheel off, this is all that was on the top end of the column. Seems like there should be some type of retainer to go up against that white bushing... or maybe the last guy put it together wrong?

There is a foam insert that goes in there, in between white piece and steering wheel. Some guys use a front wheel bearing in place of what you have, converts 2 piece into one piece bushing which also works but some gnurling needs to happen or some put in small amount of foil around bearing OD to keep it from working its way out. CC makes a plastic bushing that replaces the OE style sleeve and insert like you have. Looks up Parts breakdown and you will see.

slight modification? that sounds like a good way to go

You know what they say about "opinions"? There like a$$ holes, everyone has one.
I like the original look/color. That's my "opinion", and I'm stickin to it.
As Jeff wrote, "You have to look at it, pick what you want."

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.
