Internal vs external brakes
I tried using the search function but my computer doesnt like that button for some reason. I was wondering what is the advantage of using a rear with an internal brake vs external. I am getting ready to build a cub for my kids to run in the youth class and the cub i got has external brakes. Will this be a problem?

I did find a post asking the same question and got the answer i was looking for. But now im wondering can an external brake rear be converted to internal brake? If so is it even worth it or should i look for another rear?

Personally, I prefer External Brakes. Just easier to service and maintain.

I've had several internal brake and external brake Cubs. None of the external brakes ever worked very well. All the internal brake tractors worked fine and never needed any attention.
The main thing I see wrong with the internal brake is, it can lock the ring/pinion but it doesn't stop the differential from working. So, in a marginal traction situation, you can lock the input shaft but due to the differential action, one wheel can rotate forward while one spins backwards and you actually have no brakes. The Cyclops external brakes work great.

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.
