Cheapest one I saw on ebay. You might ask the seller for some ID measurements before purchase.

I would also suggest looking through the links at top of page.

I saw that one on eBay. I didn't like what I saw on that one. It looks like a crack on the end of the keyway slot. And from the backside the keyslot looks wider at the top unless it's the camera angle. I missed a good one a week ago on there and it went for a good price. I checked the sponsors. Theres a couple. I may have to go with one of them unless something else shows up.

Well, I dont know if cubs are plentiful where you live but I have purchased whole tractors for the price of that pto basket on Ebay before :biggrin2: maybe time to look at craigslist

I check there all the time. Once in a while a decent deal shows up but not that many here. There's an Original for $200 about 3 hrs from here that doesn't run that's been on craigslist for a few months. Everything else is priced beyond belief. Something will turn up sooner or later. The good thing is I don't really need the tractor for any yard work or anything right now.

Did you try our sponsors: Patton, Houtz, or Cub Classics ....???

:bigthink:

If you can’t find a decent one, Cub Cadet Specialties has a brand new old stock for sale. Not cheap though.

One other suggestion. The keyed hub bore is just tack welded in place I believe. I think I have seen weld in bores that are pre keyed in Mcmaster carr catalog. With some care and patience I bet I could cut an old one out and weld a new one in with enough precision that it would work well. This could very well be the most cost effective way to go.

I would carefully cut the old one out. Then I would chuck the new piece in my lathe. I would use a run out gauge while mounting the pulley to get it to run true and weld it in.

This could be done without a lathe but you would definitely need access to a welder. Mig welder would be my choice.

Here is a link to a company that has a bunch of weld in style keyed hubs.
