Default My Two Year Addiction With A 1650

This is a two year story of my new hobby. My

Cub Cadet 1650. It was made in June of 1977.

I purchased it in June of 2012. This is the

first picture with my grandaughter who's

name is June. No way I could have planned

that.

Showing it off on the forums I joined to

learn more about Cubs a fellow member

noticed the engine was sitting too low in

the frame and told me to check the ISO

mounts. So out came the engine and the fun

of owning a Cub begins...

The oil pan was scrap, the pads were wore

bad and I milled them down and tried to shim

them up with washers. I didn't like it and

bought a new one then saw a cast iron one on

ebay so I got that one and sold the new

aluminum one to a forum member.

Next I did the cradle mod welding a bar

between them using the old oil pan to get it

right. Bought new ISO mounts and snubbers,

painted the cradle and put it in the frame.

Here is where I started adding parts I

didn't need but wanted... I found a lower

engine shield, painted it and the cast iron

oil pan, put them on and installed a

steering up grade kit then installed the

engine.

I then bought all these parts for the engine

and frame...

I had to have a sleeve hitch so a forum

member came up with all the parts and the 3

point too.

Its march 2013 now and I'm waiting for the

grass to grow. A couisin from my wifes side

of the family calls me and asks if I want a

#2 cart for free. This is when I start

looking for implements. Two weeks later a

different cousin ask if I want a back blade.

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.
