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. 1.jpg 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... 2.jpg 3.jpg 4.jpg 5.jpg 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. 6.jpg 7.jpg 8.jpg 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. 9.jpg 10.jpg 11.jpg 12.jpg 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. 13.jpg 14.jpg 15.jpg 16.jpg 17.jpg I then bought all these parts for the engine and frame... 18.jpg 19.jpg 20.jpg 21.jpg 22.jpg 23.jpg 24.jpg 25.jpg 26.jpg 27.jpg 28.jpg 29.jpg 30.jpg I had to have a sleeve hitch so a forum member came up with all the parts and the 3 point too. 36.jpg 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. 31.jpg 32.jpg 33.jpg 34.jpg 35.jpg SEE NEXT THREAD

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.
