1872 Cast Iron rear swap
Working on swapping a cast iron rear into my 1872. trying to get the new rear back under the tractor, and the front mounts that were for the aluminum rear look to be about 1/4 - 3/8 to narrow for the new rear to slip inbetween them. I measured the frame thinking it might have flexed inwards, but its the same top and bottom all the way across.
Are they not needed, or do I need to modify them a bit? Didn't see any mention in any of the other swap threads.

The old cubbies did not have brackets, they just bolted to the frame directly.

So I only need to use the 4 bolts that bolt through the axle housing?

3 bolts, two for the rear end axle housing, and one up front where the hanger would be.

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.
