108 Rusted Out Battery Tray
I removed the old battery from my "new" 108 today and discovered the bottom of the battery box is just about gone from rust. Since I don't want to replace the whole fender pan I'm just going to cut the battery tray off about half way up where the metal is good and rivet in a stainless replacement piece. Is there an aftermarket replacement available? - or a better idea? Thanks, Bear

Not sure if there is an after market part for the battery tray. Your best bet is to cut out the rust and either rivet like you said or weld in a new tray.
 Either way it will be much better than the way it is now!

Good luck
It seems like you should able to cut out most of the old battery box and replace it but I really would consider a fender pan replacement for two reasons.
It's not that big of a job to pull the fender pan off and secondly (at lest around my area) those pans are going for cheap $$. I have removed the battery boxes off a couple of older narrow frames (70 and 100) which was a fairly easy job thanks to spot welds. Seems the guys who had them before me decided to expand the box for a bigger car battery  What ever you decide

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.
