I wouldn't doubt it if there was several of them at one time and some people may have went and bought replacement decals at a later date such as during a restore etc... Your lucky I think the yellow and white ones look cool with the ih decals.

The only diferance I see between the two is that in all the CI tractors Ive had, only one was cracked, has to be close to 30. Out of all the alum trannys Ive had,maybe 10, all but 2 have been broken. This is the reason that most of the supers throw drive lines. Joe had one that wouldnt back up, rears was broke. The one that Mike is rebuilding, when I talked to the guy he said it didnt want to back up, then Mike stole it from me! LOL

Know that we know how to prevent the rears from breaking, I dont think it realy maters. I will be putting a CI in my super, cause of the loader on it.
Its all in how you take care of something. As far as the rest

Hey now, there was no stealing going on... I went out in the rain that Thursday and did a walk (slip and slide) through the red mud in my work clothes.

It's a shame they went to the AL rears. Was it cheaper to cast the AL instead of the Iron? CCC had to retool for that, it would seem.

I think I read in one of the CC books that the EPA was cracking down on iron foundries, so that made aluminum cheaper, despite the higher material cost and cost to re-tool.

All, FYI: Before they changed their name to just MTD, they were Modern Tool & Die. Modern Tool & Die had been supplying the automotive industry with cast aluminum parts for decades. So casting aluminum parts for their wholly owned CCC subsidiary likely wasn't a real big problem for them. Furthermore, at the time, MTD was already casting aluminum differential housings for their own brand and 3d party branded tractor style lawn mowers (ask my wallet how I know that).

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.
