8TEN Spindle High Lift Blade Kit 50 inch Cut Deck for Cub Cadet MTD RZT L50 S50 LX50 SX50 XT1-GT50 ZT1-50 G8200 G8300

Direct fit for my Cub Cadet 50” ztr. Easy install and now I don’t have to buy overpriced Cub Cadet blades. Spindles are greaseable. Blades and spindles appear to be high quality.

One of the spindles on my daughter's Cub Cadet ZT1 50 broke. The blades were in need of replacement as well, so I was faced with two choices:1) Buy Cub Cadet's proprietary high priced spindle and blades and hope that another spindle doesn't break, which would require the purchase of another Cub Cadet high priced proprietary item.OR2) Buy the 8TEN product, which contains 3 new spindles along with 3 new blades for less money than one of Cub Cadet's spindles.Chose option 2 and am very happy with my choice.The mower now has all new spindles and blades. Both of which appear to be as good as the OEM product. These spindles have grease fittings, which will help with longevity. Also, these spindles will now enable me to utilize aftermarket blades. A win-win situation.

Installed on a Cub Cadet ZT1 50". Perfect fit better quality. now I don't have to pay $80.00 + for cheap quality cub cadet blades.

The Cub Cadet Ultima ZT1 is a beautiful mower, as I feel like yellow really brings out my eyes. Anyway, it cuts reasonably well also, turns great, is efficient enough…BUT it has always been plagued with a bit of a deck rattle. It also has spindles you can’t grease which may contribute to the vibration over time, but who am I, John Deere? I know very little about engineering mowers, but what I DO know is that this spindle/blade upgrade from 8Ten is ammmmmaaaazing! So much smoother, quieter, the blades are a bright green which I’m sure the grass loves when they seem them spinning at 8 trillions mph before they lop their tops off. The install was super easy, fitment is perfect, and a seriously great value. Love it!

One of the spindles on my lawnmower broke. To buy a new one that is an "S" blade spindle was not cheap. This kit is awesome. It has the same size spindles but with a common "star" shape.Fixed the spindle issue and now blades are easier and cheaper to buy.

They look pretty good but should have came with the nut that holds the blade

SOOOOO much better than what the mower came with, took me about 45 minutes to replace the originals. Very easy to do and now I don't have to buy $80 S pattern blades, I can use the common star blades. This literally was the best purchase I made this year.They also have grease fitting and need about 30 pumps of grease to fill each one, nearly an entire grease cartridge between all three, so you will need to have a grease gun to pack these, they are shipped dry. But once you pack them, they will likely go for years. Especially if you use grease with molly in it (Black grease)Note: People complain they don't come with spindle nuts.. just use the ones that came off the old spindle.. the old spindles on your mower have 2 nuts on each spindle, top of the pulley and where you attach the blade, remove them, use 3 on the new spindles and you will have a spare set.

Yay! I don’t have to cross cut my yard anymore! Idk if it was the original ZT1 50 blades or spindles but the issue is gone. I tried the original blades and the Cub mulching set with the S shaped holes. Also, the deck doesn’t do the bouncing around thing when the blades are engaged and you’re just sitting in the driveway. The spindles do not come pre- greased and each one took its own mini tube of red lube. I mowed a couple times and then topped them off again assuming the heat and spindles rotating would make it all settle out. Oh and this is endlessly debatable but the blades are dull so I hit em with a file and balanced. All I’m gonna say is if you think shipped/dull blades are sharp enough, look at your blades of grass after the cut and note the torn edges. Then hit the googles and see if you want torn blades or crisp cut. K bye!!
