1050 a good machine
Hey everybody:
I have been kind of thinking about adding a Cub Cadet 1050 to my fleet (there is one for sale locally). I'm just looking for some input/opinions about these particular models. I used to shy away from non IH built Cubs, but my 2072 I got last year convinced me that CCC did build some good machines. Is there any particular things I should look for? Thank you everybody for your time

The 1050 is a great tractor. The engine is rubber mounted but uses a different mount system then the rest of the Cub's and it's a much better system. My 1050 is the smoothest running Cub i have, there is hardly any vibration from the engine.

The Mag 10 in mine is shot. I have a K301 bored and ready to assemble to put in it. I won't rebuild the Mag 10 and put it back in. Not impressed with the Mag. No way to adjust timing. I can get more power out of a K241. I have lots of motors, so I'm going back with the 301... at least until I build a 321 or 341 for it, lol.
I would rather have a K series than an M series. Unless we are talking twin cylinders. Then, I'd rather have the Mag.

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.
