For what ever it's worth all of my Supers seem a bit slower than my 1210 did. I think it's because of the gearing on the Supers. Good thing is they will pull a stump.

My 1872 is a race horse compared to ANY standard size Cub Cadet I have EVER been on. The 1872 is fully 1/3 faster than the 1861, 1000, 149, if not more.

No lack of power due to it being faster. The 1872 really pulls.

I wonder if it is a linkage adjustment that can effect the speed??

My neutral is perfect, and reverse is a little sluggish.

Or did a PO slip a GT rear in it? Only way to know for sure is to count the teeth on the reduction gear and pump out put shaft.

I don't think you can do that Sam. A GT hydro won't fit in a super rear and if they changed the complete rear and hydro from a GT it would be faster...wouldn't it, I think?

I have had that 1872 so long, I believe it only had 200 hours on it when I got it.

I bought it off the dealer that sold it new, and had always serviced it.

(I may have bought it in the late 1980's, )

The machine only ever saw light homeowner use before I got it.

That said, it runs so good, I will not be taking the cover off just to count!!

If it ain't broke, don't mess with it!!.

Todd

Cad said his is faster so I wondered if it maybe had a GT rear & pump in it. That would make it faster.

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.
