Hi all, New here as you can see. I recently traded my old boat for 4 Cub Cadets! to me it was worth it, I love boats and watercraft as my dad is a marine engineer but I do not have the free time to enjoy it. The Cub Cadets are a 3208, 2135, GT2550 and a 149. They all have issues and so did my boat so I'm in the plus since I have many uses for these when running. I currently I have an LT1024 I use for mowing 6 acres I was given that needed work and now runs like a champ.

My main project that I want to fix is the Cub cadet 3208, it will not move and has a bad leak at the rear axle. My main hope for this tractor is it came with a huge 48" snowblower that will save me so much time. The model number on that axle is 618-3194 I was told to put oil in it and see if it spins whilst jacked up but the OEM oil is at a ridiculous price is there any alternatives in bulk I can buy?

After trying this I will determine whether I need a new rear end or a rebuild kit if any exist. I havent seen any forsale online. I have found an axle on eBay with the model 618-3221 Im not sure on compatibility. If any one can point me in the right direction it would be very helpful! I think I am going to be on this forum a long time since all them have issues.
