50C mower...Crack repair needed
Hello, I purchased this deck last spring from a guy who bought a super with this deck on it. The super had less than a 100 hours on it. This deck had an easy life until I bought it.
Anyway, the right side 6" wheel mount has cracked where it is welded to the deck. I was told by the guy I bought it from that this is common with this mower and it was his selling point on how good of shape this deck was in. I'm planning on welding up the crack on the outside and welding a piece of plate to the underside to help spread out the forces from the flexing that caused the crack in the first place. Any suggestions of what others have done are appreciated. Thank You!

Pretty much what you said is how most people repair the guage wheel hangers. The only other thing I do is drill a couple holes in the plate around the area where the crack is and plug weld the holes. Should be good to go then.

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.
