128 Dash tower metal cracked
2 of the 4 bolts that hold it to the frame holes are cracked about 2 inches or so. How could I go about fixing this? last resort would be to replace the tower.

the BOLTS are cracked as in snapped off? or the tower sheetmetal is torn?
if its the tower sheet metal, I'd drill a small hole at the end of the crack and then vise grip one of my copper bars to one side if it and weld away with my MIG. similar issue with my 129... the #10-24 bolts that hold the fiberglass cover to the metal part on the left side, snapped off on mine, knocked the welded (tacked ) OEM nuts off the back side, gonna have to tack some new ones into place.

Had the same issue on my 169, stress cracks from and around the lower bolt holes of the dash tower. I made support brackets out of 1/8" aluminum diamond plate and bolted them right over the sheet metal with two additional bolts into the tower.

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.
