Just found a 42" blade on CL
I just found a 42" blade on CL for my 1650. Wish I had the cub working. I'm going to pick up the blade this morning. I was looking for a 54", but for $75 I decided to get it and be happy.

Just picked it up. The frame and subframe are ok, but the blade is badly worn. The bottom edge is worn 1/2 way through the bolts that hold the cutting edge. I went ahead and bought it because the folks looked like they could really use the money. Anyway, now I need to repair the blade.
Would someone be so kind as to post some pics of what the bottom edge of the blade should look like? Some from the bottom and side would really help. I searched and couldn't come up with the shot I need to see. I would post some pics of what I need, but my camera isn't talking to my computer right now, for some reason. Here are the CL photos:

The problem is that the bottom edge has been ground down to the point that the bolts remaining in the cutting edge no longer have anything to hold to. Some guys posted some great pics on the other forum that helped. Looks like I need to weld a 1/4 X 3/4 X 42" strip of steel on the bottom edge, then drill it for the bolts for the wear edge.
I have an almost new MTD 48" blade that actually appears to be a little sturdier than the IH blade. I may just adapt it to the IH frame. Doesn't look like it would be difficult. Anybody tried that?

Wow! Judging by those pictures, my blade has at least 1 1/4" ground off the bottom of the blade. I'll see if I can get a picture of mine uploaded this weekend. I'm thinking it will be a chore to repair it. Oh well. I need to learn how to use my welder anyway.
By the way, sure wish my workshop was as clean and organized as yours.

OK. Got some pics. Now compare my blade to the pics you guys provided. You can see my blade is pretty worn out and in need of some work. You can see the bottom edge is worn up 1/2 way through the bolts that hold the cutting edge in place.

  Why are people SO rough on their equipment???!!! Doesn't anyone have respect for the things they buy anymore? It just makes me shake my head.  I'd say the PO needs a kick in the hind end for starters for letting somthing wear that bad and not even care!

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.
