Hi from Michigan
Hi I'm new to the forum and thought I would post my Cub Cadet story. When I was a kid my friends family had a cub-I think a 124. He and I did some lawn mowing jobs and the cub was the nicest mower I had ever used. Fast forward many years and I bought a Cub 2150. Boy was I unhappy when I found out it was made by MTD! But it has served me well and it has 655 hours on it. Last year I bought a 1450($325) in rough shape and restored it. I was happy with the results, but the engine vibration was so bad it was comical. I found that the engine mounts need the softer rubber - dont use the hard shock absorber bushings - I used the OE bushings and most of the vibration is gone. I just got another Cub a 125 that is rough, but complete. $80 for this one. It will be a project for this summer. Tom

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.
