Removing Rear Wheel on XT1 Enduro LT 42 in.
Hello,
I've searched this forum for anything similar and can't seem to find this topic already addressed. I am attempting to remove the rear wheel which has gone flat. There is the cap which has been removed and underneath a 1/2" hex nut. This would appear to need to be removed? However, this sucker won't budge. Can someone confirm whether or not this actually needs to be removed in order to take the wheel off and if there are any tips/tricks for doing so? I've used a torque wrench and a few other hand held tools all to no avail. Please note: contrary to other models, this tractor does not have lug nuts or a cotter pin associated with the heel assembly. Thanks in advance CubCadet622

Since the XT1 has been made for a couple of years, I generically looked at the Parts Diagram for one year. There is 710-06154B Bolt that is 5/16" - 24 x .85" Grade 5. Thus it would be safe to assume, that removing this bolt, the rear tire should pull off.

Thank you for the quick reply. Are you aware of any particular tricks/tools that might help with budging this sucker loose? Or do I need to just grow some more muscles?

Left to loosy right to tighty?????????
A 5/16" bolt is awful easy to twist off, maybe Loctite was used or it is awful rusty. either way a 1/2" drive ratchet and socket should loosen it easily or plum twist it off.

Maybe I need to eat my spinach today? I don't have an impact wrench unfortunately. I'll keep at it and hopefully find a way to loosen it. At present, I'm starting to round off the edges of the hex nut so I'm worried about taking things too far.

Thanks everyone. Even if the online manual says otherwise, it's definitely a 1/2" hex bolt.

Generally, Fasteners are designated by thread size and pitch, not wrench size. Normally a 5/16" bolt or nut has a head size of 1/2" that is NORMALLY but a heavy duty or specialty nut or bolt can have a smaller or larger head size. I'll not mention socket head or torex heads or metric ect. So when a spec is given, it is not wrench/socket size. I think Roland is correct that your fastener is a bolt with 5/16" -24 threads per inch ( fine thread) and grade 5 which is a 1 step above common hardware bolt. hope this helps you. Now did you get it off?

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.
