*** I am not a "puller"......But, I am a mechanic, and I've been around/built pulling tractors (not garden tractors, big ones). I'll let the pulling guys tell you what they think, but I like the look of this guys stuff.***

A set of fine spline axles and diff that austin8214 pointed out is a good place to start if the class requires a diff in the tractor. I know a few pullers in lower power class still using course spline axle with no issues. I would put a ring around a 1 piece diff housing to help keep the diff housing from spliting. My Son has a 2 piece diff and axles from a newer Cub Cadet in his wide frame Cub Cadet puller. He had to modify the bearing area on the axle housing because the axles were bigger in diameter

An internal brake trans/rear end has less drag than a disc brake set up.

If the class doesn't require a reverse gear I would set the trans up with 4 forward speeds with one tooth different in each gear. Another way to go is changing the gear ratio in the drop box. You can over/under drive the drop box up to 30%. If I 'm using stock shifter forks I like to weld shifter forks and install heavier gear shifter poppet springs to help keep the trans in gear. Along with the above I will install a system to lock trans in gear. Some will install stronger main shaft, main shaft bearing retainer.
Can you describe in more detail about the ring around a course spline diff?

Thanks

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.
