Hello all,

Got Basketball anyone?

I'm David M Wilkins currently live and have lived in Lexington for nearly 27 years.

Last fall I bought a Cub Cadet made by MTD, an 1862 and Sat. afternoon on my first mowing I broke the front axle in two.

Because this tractor was made by MTD and not IH, am I in the wrong forum?

I'm frantically looking now for a used axle as all sites are showing the diagram but the part 719-3100 is not available. Does this mean an obsolete part?

Lonnie's Cub Cadet locally pretty much told me that is the way it is.

I'm rather sick of my last fall purchase now. I could have bought a new lawnmower not been this nice but with a warranty.

David :Welcome2:

Call Rich Patton at (724) 730-6254 or email him pattonacres@msn.com He should have what you need.

I have a 1864 and love it! It mows great! I still need to get some cat0 tools for it.:biggrin2:

That shouldn't be to big of a deal.
I have replaced the front axle on my Cub before.
If Patton acres don't have one Check with Chris at Cub Classics.
E-bay is another source.

Nice to meet you, Let us know what you find out.

Welcome to OCC, glad to have you here and yes you are at a forum that can help you out.

You are only a few miles north of me. Richmond, Ky here.

Trust me when I say, you could have bought a new mower that is designed to have to be replaced within two to three years. You are much better off fixing this one and having one that will last much longer than the new plastic and thin metal stuff that is being sold today. The front axle should be fairly easy to locate. As someone noted, call our sponsors at the top of the page and they should be able to get you fixed up. :beerchug:

Welcome to OCC.
You're in the right place for such a problem. You'll be up and going in short order.
Forewarned is forearmed, that tractor can easily lead to yellow fever.

Welcome to the forum. I live in Somerset about an hour south of you and I have 2 front axles that might work. Email me at cubcadet2284@yahoo.com and we will see if they will work.
