I pressure washed the frame, took the front axle off and sanded the frame. Tomorrow night I'm going to paint the frame RED! Pics tomorrow!

Well I tried to paint the frame tonight. Started fine but then the paint started to run like crazy. So I went ahead and put 1 good coat on and it ran some more. I'll let it set for about 2 weeks and then wet sand it and try to paint it again. Next week's project will be to clean up the rearend and front axle and paint those, and if I get around to it I'll pull the Mag 18 out of the 1811 parts tractor, put a new oil pan gasket on it and maybe even paint it. Here's pics

I hope so! I think I put a little too much thinner in the paint.

Well, I was finally able to do some more work on the cub yesterday. It was warm outside so I pressure washed the rear end, tires, and hoods. I also pulled the Mag 18 out of the 1811 parts cub. Found the oil leak on the Mag 18 too!. I thought it was the engine seal but once I got to looking at it I saw something happened to the oil plug and one of the PO's put a pipe with a cap on the end for the oil plug. It would of worked fine if the engine never had to be pulled and if they used thread sealer. So now I just have to pull the plug out of the KT 17 that came out of the 1711 and put it in the Mag 18! Hopefully this week I will resand the frame and repaint it. And if things work out I'll paint the rear end and front axle also.

Nice job on the updates and easy fix on the mag 18 too.

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.
