New brakes
I finally broke down and ordered some brake relining material from McMaster, my 108 hasn't had brakes for the last 4 years I've owned it so I'm sure it will take some getting use to. I prepped the old pads with a 36 grit grinder and attached the new material with jb weld, I topped it all off with some silver paint since its what I had laying around. Can't wait to get home and install them.

Nice work there. Don't launch yourself over the steering wheel

I got the brakes on last night but it took a bit of work to make it happen, the 3/16 material is to thick so I had to shave about a 1/16 off each pad just to get them on and even at that I could only get one nut on the brake rods clean at the end. I did mow a bit last night and its really weird being able to stop instantly instead of coasting.

The first stop would have been fun to watch! No whiplash i hope.

No whiplash but the brakes seem to drag more in reverse so when I try to back up on a hill the left wheel locks up and the right one just spins, by the time I was done mowing it stopped doing it. Makes me wish I swapped the rearend for one with internal brakes.

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.
