squeeze a little at a time, don't want to go to much as it makes the axle difficult to put back in.

I appreciate all the help you kind and knowledgeable folks have shared.
I was having a great night in the shop. It was such a nice evening, I was out until 9pm. Everything was going great. I knew I had some "good sized" nuts and bolts. Well, I didn't have anything that I could put heavy washers on without being long enough.
I had a quality 5/16 bolt that did the job,just fine. I don't feel it was a grd 8 either.
Just sharing to save folks some cash on maybe a 1 time use, "tool".
And btw, I put it in there snug. I didn't get to swearing "snug", just really, really close to it.

Nope, not at all. It was manufactured before budgets became the way of life.

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.
