Default 1572d

Just picked up a 1572D. It came with mower deck and snow plow, plus a set of 75 weights. It has 954 hours on the meter. As of now it's in pieces. The rear and hydro are off. The guy I bought it from said he was plowing with it when then bolts broke on the rear. It sat for a year that way, and he decided to sell it. To be honest I didn't even look it over that well, just knew that I wanted a diesel and the price was right. This set up is all new to me, so I'm hoping for some idea's and guidence. First thing, is there a cast iron rear that will work on this and if so what one?

Congrats on the 1572. You will be pleased when you get it going. I wish I could help, but there are a lot of guys that have experience with what you are describing. You also know we will want some pictures. Again congrats.

You will need a CI rear that has external brakes from any hydro cub. You will have to swap out the the exsiting internal parts from the aluminum rear into the CI rear. Matt G has a good write up on his site. Take your time and read the manual on setting all the tolerences, and as always take lots of pics for us. Good luck!

Default Bolts for the attaching rear

I going to change to a cast rear when I can locate the right one. In the mean time does anyone know the size and lenght of the four bolts that hold the rear onto the frame. Part # maybe? Are these bolts grade 8. All four broke in the rear. Seems strange that all four would break like that. One was easy to get out, it stuck out far enough to get vise grips on it to turn out. The next 3 I'll have to drill. Is there a parts book and manual here for this tractor? I'm also going to have to order gaskets for putting this back together. Thanks for the help.

Are the holes in the frame wallered out (souther term)? I'm still thinking your going to have problems sticking new bolts in the existing rear. Do you have any pictures of it?

Well, I was working on taking this apart and just noticed that there's more damage. I knew the bolts going thru the axle tubes were broke, but the casting up closer to the front (there's 2 more bolts on each side) is broken. There's no place to put the bolts back in. Not sure what this part is called, it's also alum. cast and bolts to the rear. So as soon as I find out what cast rear that has external brakes that I need, i'll place a wanted ad in the proper place. Ok, there also wallered out.

I've got a cast iron rear end out of a 1976 1450 that has external brakes. There is one model you can look for.

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.
