The front wheels on my 54 inch mower deck were really wobbly. EricRand I took them off and discovered not only the wrong bushings in the wheels but the axle bolts were worn halfway through. I ordered new axle bolts and they came in. We headed off to Lowes this afternoon and found steel bushings that will fit. They were a little loose in the one end of the wheel so we cut an expansion spring and put it between the steel bushings inside the wheel and it provided just enough pressure to keep the new bushings pushed out. If I had let them go in they would have covered up the hole inside for the grease. It worked very well and I now have front wheels restored to near perfect condition.

Sounds like a good repair. The expansion spring was a very good idea.

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.
