I'm going to use a bolt, no worries about the spring breaking or falling off and the belt will be almost guaranteed to not slip.

Just remember, there is no slip clutch on that tiller, or shear pin. You want one of the two belts to slip if you hit something. It happens. I've had a garden in the same spot for 4 years this year. Every year I catch something in the tiller that stalls it. Rock, brick, what's left of a metal post. Just making sure you know it needs to give somewhere.
I usually slip the small belt on the tiller. Lots of torque applied there, easiest place to slip. |

Also noticed the mule drive must have been ridding on the front axle for a long time and started putting groves into... prior owner abused the poor tractor.

Normally yes the smaller belt slips. However, I hit a root last year and threw the long belt.

Just FYI, the tiller operators manual actually says to do exactly what you just did. Replace the spring with another tensioner bolt and some washers through the big hole where the spring used to be if that's the mule drive you are using.
Looking good, hope to get mine out this weekend for the 1st time.

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.
