1782 transmission case mount cracked
I’ve had my 1782 for about three years and have gone through two power steering hydraulic lines that cracked due to the rocking of the transmission. I didn’t realize where the problematic cracks were until I was doing some maintenance and I noticed that both sides are cracked considerably. The front part of the case is seemingly unavailable as new old stock. I would like to move forward with a reasonable cost fix and wondering if the alloy that the case is constructed is something you could braise or otherwise weld. Serial number is newer, 875*** for reference.
Anybody who has had the experience of repairing this crucial aspect of the strength of the Super would be appreciated. I’ve heard some on the fragile nature of this design area and wonder if MTD has a bulletin and support. I was happy initially as it was a not new purchase but I now understand why the price was in my price range. Buyer be aware. Now I’m trying to make it right for the long term. Help. Thanks to all in advance. BD

Is all your cracks/damage on the front? SamMac designed axle braces will cure your problem. Extreme motor works sells them.

As said the braces take care of the problem.
To answer your question, the case is aluminum and can be repaired by one that has aluminum welding equipment (Heliarc/tig) and of course, the expertise to use it.

This is what the axle brace looks like. As the others have said Xtreme sells them you need the SGT kit.

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.
