You might want to check with the club rules you will pulling with. The clubs around my area will not allow a welded rearend. With my stock tractors both wheel will spin when under a load. Nice looking cub you have there. Also you MIGHT need to put a red or yellow spring in that clutch. If you get it balanced good and your tires are biting hard, the clutch could slip on ya (aint saying it will, but it could under the right conditions). Good luck pulling and just trying to help a fellow puller out.

That's also an irreversible modification. Better be really sure you want to weld it before you actually go through with it.

Yea check your rules for the rear. A good combo for the clutch is the Vogel clutch disk and the midwest red spring.

also if you can ditch that air box and put a velocity stack on there. It will help out alot.

I just sent an email out a about the rear end. I did not see anything in the rules about it. I have been thinking about the clutch set up and i agree i need to get a heavier spring, it can only help.

Good luck to all the pullers this year. I'm taking this year off, due to health reasons. Our tech and tune day is scheduled for this Saturday.

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.
