I know a few differences between the early vs late model QL tractors - such as:
Early - Cast iron Grill, Late - Aluminum grill Early - 3/4" spindles, Late - 1" spindles Early - external brakes, Late - internal wet brakes Early - Steering wheel similar to 1x8/9 tractors, Late - similar to 82 series tractor. What else is same/different? Thanks! Bill

There are differences in the wire loom and PTO clutch wire routing between the early CI grill Cubs and the later AL grill units. Seems the early ones have the loom running along the right side of the frame then up to the engine w/the PTO wire going down the left side. The later ones w/AL grill seem to have the loom going through a grommet in the fire wall and the PTO wire included in this bunch and going across the side of the engine to the right front to the PTO.
Just a few of my observations

Main engine ground wires are different, early ones ground to the rear right side 3/8" nose bolt, later ones ground to the 7/16" firewall bolt. Some of the 1650-1450 hydraulic lift rigs use a roll pin for the lift handle shaft, others use a "U" shaped clamp w/a 5/16" bolt to squeeze it to the shaft.

The clutch/brake return springs were different, and hydro control linkage was different.

The early ones had a pin in the hydraulic lift lever bracket while later ones had a bracket that had a clamp with a bolt. I never did know if that was a change or a modification.

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.
