Cast iron deck? Which idiot came up with cast iron for that
application???????

NICE repair though!!!

Gunner
Cub Cadet used cast iron sections on a few of the early decks they made.
The outlast just about the entire stamped steel areas.


Probably "cast steel"...which would be a great choice. Cast iron..not
so much.

Gunner


Nope cast ductile. The decks that use these parts were made in the mid
70's, I'd say they have held up pretty well.


Ah! I blinked out ductile iron completely. Ayup...good choice for
that application..
