I picked up a 169 with the hydraulic lift ,3 point hitch and the 90 degree gearbox. I removed the gear box as another collector needed it for a tiller. Of course when I returned the plate rear end cover was leaking. No big deal. I thought. Yeah right. When I removed the cover, I noticed RTV and a heli-coil on the left side half way up. Not good. The previous owner had installed a bolt too long and broke the entire lug off. Only one thing to do. Get it to the welder and weld a stud onto the cast iron with Nickel rod. $40.00/pound and very difficult to use. The surrounding area has to be heated to 600 DEG. Welded, peened then brought down in temp gradually. Took me all afternoon. Welding in a thunderstorm was a thrill. All done. The point is,,,,be very careful to install the correct bolts in the plate covers. Still this is going to be a nice tractor. Maybe a month from now. I'm still compiling a list of all of the shortcomings and parts to be replaced.

you did the welding yourself ,good job.I'm a bit heavy handed when tearing tractors down,something Ive learned to curb !, I broke a brake lever on the rear on the 70 and a lever on the pedal of a 123 both cast pieces.Took me forever to find new ones!
Sounds like a fun project Jason |

To add what Eagle stated, a loose Tiller Bracket causes multiple problems with bolts and bolt holes. Be SURE you Tiller Bracket is mounted securely.

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.
