Power angle questions
I just bought a power angle kit for the blade on my 1450 from eBay. Upon receiving the package the box had an oil soaked corner. After further inspection the hydraulic cylinder appears to have a leaking seal. Is this repairable? If so is it costly? The item description listed this as "fully operational and functions as intended" but that doesn't seem to be the case. If it can be fixed for a minimal cost i'm not going to make a big deal out of it, but I paid good money for this item with the expectations it would be a bolt on and go procedure.
Also, what kind of couplers were used on cub cadets? The ones I put on my 1450 I found on a shelf at a local lawnmower grave yard and very well may be from a jd garden tractor. Either way they don't fit the ends that are on the cylinder i just purchased. TIA.

How about a Picture of this kit you bought. There are two versions of the Hydraulic Angle Kit according to the CPE-2 Parts Manual.

A leaking seal should not cost a lot if you have a good shop in you area,from the pic it appears that it must not be to bad,if you can get it hooked up and try it i would see how bad it is first,but for a seal i would think it would not be more than $20 to maybe $40.

$40 for a seal??? Where are you shopping? It's probably a couple of 10-cent O-rings and a maybe $1 lip seal. Hopefully the cylinder can be disassembled to replace those parts. If the ends are welded, it'll be more complicated.

Have you tried hooking it up to see where the leak is coming from? It is possible the seal area got fluid on it during transportation from fluid left over in the lines/cylinder. I would test it first.
 Sorry Cub123, I didn't see your post.

I can't try the cylinder on the tractor because I don't have the correct couplers on it. The picture in my previous post is from the eBay auction so you don't see anything wrong with it. Here are a few pics to try and show what I am talking about. I can pull on the piston rod and fluid and air will bubble out of the seal. If you look close in the second pic you can kind of see where the seal is broken. (it looked better before it was resized.) I don't see any way to take this apart, it looks all welded together.

The good news is that the older deck lift cylinders are the same (except for the different shaped end). They can be had on epay for less then $15 pretty regularly.
I would put the connectors that work with the lines on the plow cylinder as they should be correct cub ones. Then you will only need to buy one side to make everything correct.

YUP...that is the older style of cylinder. Per the manual, there are no parts available from CC. A Hydraulic Repair Shop is what is needed.
Attached, is the image from the Parts Manual plus the Coupler Part number and cross reference.

Like i said,if you have to take it to a shop it might be $20+,but i would take your cylinder with you to and get some ends to go on the tractor(you said they might be off a jd)and try it,if its bad see how much it will cost to fix it,and if its too much try what jbollis said and look for a older deck lift cylinder if you can find one for $15 or so.

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.
