Cub Cadet Lawn Mower Parts

As mentioned in previous articles there are really only a few manufacturers of lawn mowers and different brands are sold to different channels of trade so that there is no model confusion between lawn mowers sold at Wal-Mart or those sold at Home Depot and Lowe’s. Cub Cadet is an excellent example of a brand that is sold at higher end prices and made by a company that is known for its opening price point products sold at Wal-Mart and Kmart. Cub Cadet lawn mower parts can be purchased directly from MTD online or through the many small engine authorized parts dealers around the country like Jack’s Small Engine Repair and Outdoor Distributors.

Cub Cadet was started by International Harvester as a premium line of outdoor power equipment in 1961. In 1981 the Cub Cadet Company was acquired by MTD and was operated as a stand alone division until recently when they began integrating to create economies of scale by using common platforms, engines and parts for their other brands (White Outdoor, Bolens, Troy Bilt, MTD, Yard Man and Yard Machines). MTD has even continued to make the Yellow and White models for Cub Cadet dealers and the Red Cub Cadets for the agricultural markets. If you need to find Cub Cadet lawn mower parts you can find them anywhere MTD authorized parts are sold.

If you have an older Cub Cadet model and are having issues with the suspension and steering you can get a Cub Cadet ball joint for only $6.13. Idler pulleys are $115.71 and you can get Cub Cadet belts from $16 to $26 at the official Cub Cadet website. While looking up Cub Cadet lawn mower parts you can also search for a new owner’s manual and an exploded parts diagram. Because of the many brands MTD makes the prices for OEM parts are very reasonable compared to OEM auto parts.
