1/8" NPT Oil Level and Drain Plugs. (0.405" O.D. tapered threads.) All MTD-built Cub Cadet garden tractor aluminum housing creeper drive units are packed with grease from the factory. Therefore, for better lubrication and less wear inside the creeper drive unit, install ordinary plug on opposite side of unit of shifter to serve as an oil level check, and install magnetic plug on bottom of unit to attractive metallic wear fragments and drain/change the oil. The gearbox will last much longer with uncontaminated and cleaner oil. Remember - metal flake looks good in paint, not in oil. Entire creeper unit must be completely disassembled and cleaned, a hole drilled midway on the side, another hole drilled on the bottom, and both holes will need to be threaded with an 1/8" NPT hand tap for the plugs. Then fill unit through the breather opening with SAE 90 weight gear oil. $8.00 for both plugs, plus shipping & handling.

Other gear sets are also available; from 13 teeth to 28 teeth in any combination you desire. Tooth count on one upper cluster gear and matching bottom gear must add up to 52. Exception: for the upper 13 tooth cluster gear, reuse the OEM Cub Cadet 39 tooth lower (1st speed) lower gear. Use this Cub Cadet Gear Ratio Chart to determine which gears your tractor needs. If you wish to use a faster gear than the 28 tooth, then an overdrive gear set (listed above) will also need to be used. Any combination. $150.00 per set, plus shipping & handling.

Custom Gears Installation Information: The True Gear 2nd and 3rd gear set lower gears are wider than the Cub Cadet OEM lower gears. Therefore, the cone-shape spacer at the front of the lower pinion shaft will need to be narrowed about .050" so the pinion gear will mesh correctly with the ring gear. Exception: for the 13 tooth cluster gear, reuse the OEM Cub Cadet 39 tooth bottom gear. And if the upper gears are larger in diameter than the OEM gears, the shifter fork may need grinding for clearance. Or if the gears are really big, a billet shifter fork will need to be installed. Otherwise, 1st and reverse gears and everything else should remain the same in the transaxle.

Use this interactive Cub Cadet Gear Ratio Chart or the chart below Ê to determine which gears your tractor may need. (Open this linked file with either Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice Calc and use Google Chrome web browser for a faster download of websites with large files.) Remember - there's about a 600 RPM difference (reduction or increase) in gearing between one set of gears with a particular number of teeth and another set of gears with one tooth more or one tooth less.

Top Shafts. Fits IH-Built Cub Cadet Garden Tractors with the Gear-Drive Cast Iron Housing Transaxle. This is the upper splined shaft for the sliding 1st/reverse and 2nd/3rd gears. Will not fit the MTD-built Cub Cadet garden tractors with the aluminum housing transaxle.

Internal (Wet) Brake Pads/Pucks and Neoprene Rubber O-Ring Seal. Fits Cub Cadet garden tractor models 70, 71, 72, 73, 100, 102, 104, 105, 122, 123, 124, 125, 580, 582, 680, 682, 782, 784, 800, 1000, 1200, 1210, 1250, 1282, 1450, 1604, 1606, 1650, 1710, 1711 and 1712. IMPORTANT: Before installing any new oil seal, always apply oil or grease inside the seal and on the shaft to keep the rubber seal lubricated and cool until internal oil can reach it. With no prior lubrication, the dry rubber will wear away, causing another oil leak. Do the job right the first time, and it won't have to be done again.

Replace an OEM nylon cooling fan with broken blade(s) or a slipping cooling fan (on the driveshaft) to prevent overheating and burning up of the hydrostatic drive unit. (Be sure to clean any debris from the hydro unit once a year to allow for maximum cooling, too.) FYI - Heat radiating (especially in the summertime) from the hydrostatic pump after long use when the tractor is shut down causes the nylon cooling fan on the driveshaft to eventually harden and become brittle, which could cause the blade(s) to break off when the tractor is in use. Then the out-of-balance fan causes the driveshaft to wobble, which causes the rubber flex coupler disc(s) to wear and/or cause the bronze pilot bushings on the ends of the shaft to wear oblong and possibly cause the driveshaft to bend. The only way to prevent this from happening is to install a [clockwise rotating] aluminum cooling fan of the appropriate diameter with a steel fabricated hub adapter.

A-1 Miller's oil drain plugs have a super strong rare earth/neodymium magnet. Five times stronger than competitor's ceramic (ferrite) magnet and resists demagnetization. Plugs listed below can be used on various other makes and models of transmissions, transaxles, gearboxes and small engine crankcases. Tapered threads requires no sealing gasket or sealant, and threads will not strip out when tightened. To avoid cracking oil pan, do not over-tighten! When in doubt, use plumber's thread sealing tape to insure proper sealing of threads to prevent a possible oil leak. Universal application. Magnet attracts and removes ferrous metallic wear fragments from the motor oil or transmission/gearbox to reduce engine or gear/bearing wear. Sometimes some of the ferrous wear fragments settle to the bottom of the oil pan and do not drain out with the oil when performing an oil change, even when the oil is hot. Magnetic drain plugs are suitable for engines with splash oil lubrication (no oil pump/filter). The engine, transmission, transaxle or gearbox will last much longer with uncontaminated and cleaner oil. Remember - metal flake looks good in paint, not in oil.

FYI - If you don't know or can't find any information on the maximum oil quantity for any specific gear drive transmission, transaxle, right angle gearbox, or garden tiller sealed chaincase or gearbox, well, the unit in question is full when oil runs out of the oil level check/fill plug hole that's located halfway [of the drive axles or lower output shaft(s)] on the side(s), front or rear of the unit. All of these fill this way. When the unit is in motion, the lower gears in a transmission or transaxle picks up the oil and slings it on the upper gears, shafts and bearings to lubricate them. And in automotive rear ends, the ring gear picks up the oil and slings it on the pinion gear, spider gears, shafts and bearings to lubricate them. Due to high friction between the gear teeth in transmissions, transaxles, right angle gearboxes and garden tiller gearboxes, or an "open" (non-locking, free-spinning) rear end or in an automotive rear end with a Detroit Locker, SAE 90 weight gear oil must be used. But in an automotive Posi-Trac limited-slip differential, SAE 90W140 weight gear oil must be used to prevent chattering of the locking clutches going around turns. And due to much less friction of roller chain(s) on sprocket teeth in a sealed chaincase, 10W30, 10W40 or SAE 30 weight heavy duty motor oil can be safely used. In front-wheel-drive vehicles, the differential is typically built into the transmission or transaxle, and shares the same transmission fluid, rather it be SAE 90 weight gear oil for a manual shift transmission or ATF for an automatic transmission.


1/8" NPT Oil Level and Drain Plugs. (0.405" O.D. tapered threads.) All MTD-built Cub Cadet garden tractor aluminum housing creeper drive units are packed with grease from the factory. Therefore, for better lubrication and less wear inside the creeper drive unit, install ordinary plug on opposite side of unit of shifter to serve as an oil level check, and install magnetic plug on bottom of unit to attractive metallic wear fragments and drain/change the oil. Entire creeper unit must be completely disassembled and cleaned, a hole drilled midway on the side, another hole drilled on the bottom, and both holes will need to be threaded with an 1/8" NPT hand tap for the plugs. Then fill unit through the breather opening with SAE 90 weight gear oil. $8.00 for both plugs, plus shipping & handling.

Super Strong Rare Earth/Neodymium Magnets for Unfiltered Engines, Oil-Filled Gearboxes, Transmissions and Transaxles. Attracts and removes ferrous metallic wear fragments from the lubricating oil inside an engine that does not have an oil pump with an oil filter, or inside a transmission, transaxle or gearbox to lessen wear and noise to gears and bearings. Sometimes some of the wear fragments settle to the bottom of the oil pan, engine block or gearbox and do not drain out with the oil when performing an oil change, even when the oil is hot. Install magnet in bottom of oil pan away from the oil dipper and any moving parts, or in bottom of a transmission, transaxle or gearbox away from rotating gears and any moving parts. Use Krazy Glue, Super Glue, Gorilla Glue, or any industrial strength adhesive to secure magnet in place. The engine, transmission, transaxle or gearbox will last much longer with uncontaminated and cleaner oil. These rare earth/neodymium magnets are EXTREMELY strong! Use caution when handling! Can be difficult to remove from a steel or cast iron surface, are very brittle and can break easily if mishandled. Remember - metal flake looks good in paint, not in oil. A proven, ingenious and innovative concept by Brian Miller. Please do not accept advertised copycat products of this kind. (But I do appreciate them for acknowledging my ingenuity and intelligence.)

Zerk Grease Fittings. NOTE: Use a 1/4-28 UNF hand tap (preferably Taper type) to cut new threads for installation of a grease fitting. How to professionally drill for and cut new threads. FYI - If a grease fitting needs to be used in a thin-wall steel tubing (that's too thin to cut deep enough threads into) to lubricate a moving inside shaft, weld a jam nut with 1/4-28 UNF threads to the tubing, then drill a 3/16" hole through the nut and tubing, and install a grease fitting with short threads in the nut.

Available Soon - Detailed Illustrated Plans on How to Construct a Professional Pull-Back Garden Tractor Pulling Sled and a Self-Propelled Garden Tractor/Small Wheel Mini Rod Pulling Sled (Weight Transfer Machines) - (Updated 7/16/24) [Top of Page]

FYI - I'm getting closer to completing my sled plans. But being I have lots of work to do in my shop, I work on designing my sled plans in my spare time. As soon as my plans with an inventory list of parts to use and with illustrations are perfected, I'll post the announcement in my websites. And as for prices of the pull-back sled and self-propelled sled plans, I'm not sure yet. Make me an offer and I'll consider it. And remember - Perfection takes time. If it's worth having, it's worth waiting for. It'll be money well spent. - Brian Miller If interested, please contact me below.

Quality-Built and Nice-Appearing Garden Tractor & Mini Rod Self-Propelled Tractor Pulling Sleds (Weight Transfer Machines) For Sale - (Updated 8/17/24) [Top of Page]

Sleds will be built as orders are placed. A minimum 50% deposit is required for all sled purchases. Buyer/purchaser can test sled with their pulling tractors or vehicles on our 200 ft. dirt track, and then can tow it on the road (like a trailer) or haul it on a large, sturdy trailer. Sleds are designed with style and made beautiful to admire, and painted metallic or color of your choice. Also, sleds are designed to start easy, pull smoothly and sure to stop with grouser bar. They will also have a safety release lever up front so when the weight box tops out and trips it, it will automatically disengage the clutch to prevent major damage to the drive mechanism for the weight box. And it will have another safety release lever at the rear in case the clutch (for the weight box) is engaged when backing up the sled. The self-propelled sleds will have a varible speed mechanical drive system with hydraulics to lower the two front steering wheels/tires, and the bigger sled will use hydraulics to bring the weight box back to its starting position. By the way - the self-propelled garden tractor pulling sled that I built in 1995 (and sold in 2021) is such an excellent design, I realized later that I made something very special when other people copied it. It's still in use today; click or tap photo of it to the right for a larger view.

Payment Options, and We Ship to Canada and Worldwide

Packaged item(s) weighing over 1 lb. and up to 66 lb. is sent by US Postal Service Airmail Parcel Post for a 4-10 days delivery. I cannot use the US Postal Services' Flat Rate Priority Mail envelopes and boxes to ship outside U.S. territories. Item(s) weighing over 67 lbs. or more is sent by FedEx Ground or equivalent services. We try to keep our shipping cost to customers within reason.

And being there is no USPS tracking number outside the US, all I can do is make sure I write your address correctly on the customs form and on your package.
