Heat the bolt up with a torch. Even a small propane torch will get it cherry red. Right after you heat it, try pulling it out. If still nothing, heat it again, and spray some WD40 or other lubricant on it, and it should come out.

CC1450,
the bolt is on the body frame, a bolt for the tower anchor.

if there is a nut welded to the backside you may be able to drill the hole out bigger and tap it to the next bigger bolt size, or get the nut hot and twist it off with a wrench and replace it with a nut and bolt.

I'd have to see it to see how I would want to go about it. I've broken a few fasteners in my day. Most memorable would have to be the snapped off spark plug in a cylinder head. Was really hating life that day.

If you want to keep the same size bolt so they are all uniform, you have 2 choices that come to mind. One being as suggested, bust or cut off the nut welded to the frame and install a new nut (if it were me, I would follow this method and before going any further, I would tighten down the new bolt/ nut in place and weld the nut to the inside of the frame, that way it would be as it was before...ie: capture nut). Or method 2 would be the correct size helicoil set up, it will come with an over sized drill bit, a tap, and a heliciol insert. You simply drill out the hole you now have with the supplied bit, tap the hole with the supplied tap, and insert the helicoil into the newly tapped hole. Since the bolt you will be using protrudes out the back, I would use blue or red thread lock on the outside of the helicoil and once it is in place you have to break off the installation tab. Either method will fix you up.

A grease zirt in the axle. After putting it in, I realized that it took up the spot to jack up the tractor. Dohh

Havnt done too much with the cub since school let out. I thought I would be more envolved with it after the fact that I had free time. Quick shot of the to date tractor.


Hope to get back on it later this month.

I have been following your progress...
Looking very good!
How many coats of yellow do you have on it? Also it is good that you are getting a chance for the paint to cure.Make sure you put that gas tank on correctly,you have it backwards.

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.
