I'm not for sure on the bolt size (haven't had to put a set on in years), but the length depends on the width of your rims. I use carriage bolts in mine since the square seats nicely in the rim from the back.

Depends. How wide are your rims? I was going to put weights on my 1250 but my rims were too wide so I just put everything on my 1450 because the rims were stock. You can also use thread rod, you can make that as long as you want, I had to do that because I was missing some bolts. You can probably find long bolts at a hardware or fleet store same with thread rod. I hope this helped and I hope to get back to you. Or someone else will help.

1/2" Carriage bolts will do the trick. Be sure and get 'em long enough. Can always cut the excess off you know. Nylock nuts and flat washers also.

1/2" carriage bolts are what you need. As others have said the length depends on the rims. Easy to measure. I get mine from the local lumber yard. They are galvanized and used for deck building. They come in many lengths.

A 6" carriage bolt would be fine if you have 8.500 tires

Thanks for the help. 1/2x6 did the trick. Of course in my inventory I only had 3/8 and 5/8 carriage bolts. Trip to tractor supply did the trick.

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.
