Probably will look like it was on the Titanic.
The last GD Cub I was into did. |

That's what I'm expecting. Although I almost feel like over the past few months the tractor has been working a bit too well for the internals to be a rusty mess.
Only one way to find out!

If it is rusty it will show its ugliness on the differential ring gear.

What did it turn out to be when you got it out of there? Were you able to drain it or did it have to be scraped? I had some similar-looking gook in a hydraulic reservoir not long ago, and after draining the liquid part I had to open it up and get the rest with a plastic putty knife, then rinse and scrub with gasoline and a cheap brush

Okay, update time. Finally got around to getting this done. So first, I swapped the 106 and the Original so that the 106 could be in the workshop.
IMG_20210305_194122.jpg IMG_20210305_194150.jpg I then removed the fender pan, underneath it's decently grimy but not too bad actually. IMG_20210305_201556.jpg Then pulled the rear cover. Unbelievably, I did not find what we all expected. There was not a single spot of rust inside this transmission! And the fluid was most definitely old Hy-Tran. By the color of it, I would say it might be OEM fluid that the tractor came with from the factory . IMG_20210305_203100.jpg IMG_20210305_203110.jpg Once completely drained and cleaned out, it looked pretty good. IMG_20210305_213614.jpg Under the top cover everything looks in good working order. Shifter forks aren't bent out or anything, and the gears shift properly. IMG_20210305_223434.jpg So, after putting the rear cover back on I filled it with new fluid, SAE 30 oil as the manual states should be used if not using Hy-Tran. Poured it in through the top so that I could coat all the gears with it. Then put that cover back on, and bolted my fender pan back to the tractor. Tomorrow I'll go for the test drive.

Too late about it now, but these bolts sometimes loosen up and you will pop out of gear.
Remember to check tightness next time |

Alright, test drive complete. Lets just say... that was a huge improvement! Definitely a lot less noise coming from the transmission. Took a pretty long test drive...
Down the street to a friend's shop, where it posed for some pictures. IMG_20210306_110306.jpgIMG_20210306_110316.jpg Then down further to the local farm, and then after helping out in the repair shop for a while, she started right back up and drove all the way back without issue. IMG_20210306_131251.jpg Well, there ya go folks. Always check your transmission fluid. It could be water, or it could be OEM Hy-Tran that's been there since the tractor was brand new

Nice job on the transmission service! Your gears will like that fresh oil and it'll run good. shifting may improve and be smoother too.

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.
