Extend the ram/rod on the cylinder and rip a narrow piece,-(1/2-3/4") of fine emery cloth off a sheet and polish only in the rusted area where it goes in the seal, taking care to go around the shaft, not length wise.
No need to polish the unrusted portion of the rod as they are either chrome or a fine ground finish
Do not wire brush in the seal area, as you don't want the pits in the shaft from rust to become craters to allow oil leakage. most of the time it will work with little seepage.
BTDT.
Farther out on the rod it's ok to clean as you want,and paint to stop further rusting, being careful not to paint where it goes into the seal.
@ this point it is what it is, and just might work good for you.
I've saved a few plow cylinders that way.

All of the chrome is gone from that rod...that cannot be saved. A good hydraulic cylinder shop can probably make you a new rod, but it will probably cost $100+

I knew the lift cylinder was shot when i bought it but i have less than 100 between the 3PT lift and the hydraulic set up. I am either going to find a used cylinder or machine a new rod and then have it chromed.

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.
