I find it easier and faster to pull the engine... Your mileage may differ.

Winter temperatures showed up this weekend so I spent a bit of time reading the Cub sites. Searching for Steering in particular. After getting a handful of knowledge I went out side (just for a minute to look at something). Next thing I know I had the Drag link and Tie Rod down. They were put on wrong by P.O.
Then I checked and tightened the Axle Bolt/Nut... very loose. Put the rods back up correctly, they were put on in such a way that they were binding on each other. Looked at the tires; they were not even close to pointing straight at the same time. I centered the steering wheel and made the proper tie rod adjustments. For a guy that was staying in the warmth today, I got the Steering much tighter. The alignment makes the tractor steer much easier and the turning radius is much improved. No need to look at Super Steering it. I'm happy with what I got now. A good day All while still wearing my slippers. I WAS just running out for a minute : )

Tony, did you say "sites"? You mean there's more than one?

Glad to hear you got your steering worked out.

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.
