I picked up this 1450 from the scrap yard for 60 bucks.
Brought it home, inflated the tires, fiddled with the points and coil(nfg) and got it running! With the coil swapped out and the points set and filed it runs great! It's a dual spool hydraulic unit, but the spool seems seized, any advice? The driveshaft has a scary amount of wobble, thoughts? The whole tractor seems to lean to the drivers side, what could be causing this? It seems the whole frame is leaning when you look at how it attaches to the rear of the tractor? Thanks for any help, regards, Tom |

Hi Tom! Welcome to OCC! A lot of 1450 enthusiast here, including myself.
That's a nice score, you got! I got one too, that was leaning, from a recycling center. I drove it up to my truck, lol! The problem turned out to be a broken "z" bracket on the left side of the tractor. I'm not sure this is your problem or not, but don't hurt to look! John

Nice score, and welcome to OCC.
Hard to tell from the picture but it kinda looks like the bolts are missing or broken where the frame bolts to the trans-axle and/or what John said OR the frame could be bent back there.

Welcome to OCC! Looks like the frame is twisted. The rear view makes the frame above the rear end look like its leaning to the left. Or Mark is correct and it's just missing the bolts
Some one will correct me but frames are pretty easy to find

Great score! Your frame looks twisted, but Quiet Line is one of the most successful selling series in the IH Cub Cadet armada so fending spare parts is easy with few exceptions. I suggest you find another one with all the parts missing on yours (AKA: Frame/side panel/Hood/Front end just to name a few..) and from there you work your way to a functional machine. By the way, we have a member who live in Alberta, is name is Lance and I bet he can help you finding what you need.
PS: Just the dual spool and plumbing worth a few times the price you pay for, I'm willing to pay up to 200 loonies just for that myself! The engine alone can worth $200 to $300 since it's a runner! You did great! ![]()

Hi all,
Thanks for all the responses. Upon further investigation I think I know what happened to the frame. There is a hefty dent in the right side rear fender, I'm pretty sure somebody backed into the tractor , denting the fender and pushing the whole frame to the left. The bolts are in place, but there is bending of the frame rails where they connect to the rear end. If I wanted to tear it down, I'm pretty sure it could be straightened out on a press. Can the driveshaft be removed from these without shifting the motor ahead? Have begun adding pen oil to the spool, but no luck with releasing yet. Thanks, 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.
