Well, you CAN change the fluid, but it's a little more work than popping a cover.
And when the operation gets to the point that if you are wondering if a fluid change would help..... it's already too late. |

Well, spit. Wish I knew this before. I didn't give much for it, so if I can put a used hydro in it, I'll be ok. Will work on it later today and get some more info. |

Well, it's the good news, good news, bad news on the mower.
I was able to get under there and look at things. The belt looks original from 2007, and it's completely shot. So, I cut it, and now the hydro will spin ok. Other good news is I found a spare hydro for a couple bucks going to pick it up tonite. The deck belt is also junk, as are the blades. The Cessna is a long term project. Wings are off, and we're rebuilding the fuel system right now. After that, the control cables, and then we'll have the wings on and give it a go. I have some pics on my phone but not able to pull them off right now. Maybe tonite. |

OK, I'm looking better. The belt is in stock at TSC. Will have the drive belt and blades ordered through our vendor here, and start putting together next week. not so bad, just hope the engine will run right. Lot of cleaning still.
It's the usual rule of comparative neglect. Maybe $350 all-in and I'll have something I can sell for $600-ish. |

Check the brake disk, it's 3" or so disk on the side of the trans, the brake shoes like to stick to the disk if left on. There is a 9/16" nut that holds it together, if the wheels won't turn that is most likely your problem.
I've bought several LT'S for cheap because they needed trans and it was just the brake being stuck.

Yeah, the brake disk was stuck to the pucks. Frozen. It's free now.
Bonus, I just picked up a working hydro unit for $60. Guy says it's working fine. So, I either have the one I need, or I have a spare to sell with mower. I still have cleaning to finish and get the motor running. Will be later next week, as I have parts coming in soon. |

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.
