Default Cub Cadet Rear End Leaking
I recently brought my cub out of storage for the year, I wheeled it up onto the porch and it was leaking oil out of the rear end. I want to do some plowing, discing, and cultivating with it this year. Is there a repair I can do to the rear end before I have to purchase new rear end?

Where is it leaking at? The back plate? The front seal? The top? The plug? The axle seals? All of which are very fixable and you WON'T be buying a new rear end for your cub. Could just be a gasket that just needs replaced and you could just make one, if you wanted.

it seems to be leaking at the very bottom of it. Could it possibly be some kind of like crack on the rear axle

Spray it down with some cleaner and let it dry.
Then powder the heck out of it all over with some baby powder.
The powder will wet from the leak and lead you right to its source of the leak.

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.
