Welding Thin Metal
I need to do the shifter repair to the transaxle I just took out of my parts tractor. I have a stick welder and an oxy acetylene torch set. Which would be best for this job? I've welded with both before but I'm worried about burning a hole in the shifter cup since it is kind of thin. I was thinking maybe a 6013 rod? I've used it before and found it really doesn't penetrate too deep which might be perfect for this job. I could use the oxy acetylene but I'm partial to the stick welder.

If you absolutely have to use the stick, use some very small (1/16") 6013 and only make very short beads so the material has some time to cool off. Running the 6013 on AC will also cause it to penetrate less.
A better option is to find a buddy with a MIG and give him a case of beer to weld it for you.

i would use oxy/ace, if you use stick i would go small and 7018. but i think the best bet is take it to any garage and have them weld it, the probably wont charge you.

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.
