Just curious, has anyone ever tried to convert a Farmall A or Farmall B Tranny to fit on a Cub Cadet? The transmission housings look so close between a Cub Cadet, Farmall Cub, Farmall A, and Farmall B that it might be possible to adapt it to a Cub Cadet. I am not a transmission expect by any means so I know there may be many variables to make it impossible. It would gain you a 540 PTO and an extra forward gear.
Just curious, I tried to search for previous threads but found none.

IH adapted the Cub Transmission & differential housing for the Original
Cub Cadet. Later Cub cadets used a slightly modified version but basically the same. A or B trannys are likely too large... Myron B CCSupplyRoom |

Too big. We have a B at home...trans is wider, longer, taller, and of course, you've got to replace the final drives with something, and come up with a reduction housing. Too much work to get another gear that isn't needed, in my opinion.

Thanks, I thought that might be the answer, or there would have been details somewhere on this forum. Members would have signatures of that included the transmission being converted.

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.
