1772 updating complete
Well, its been a long couple of months and a pita clearing all this snow with my skidsteer instead of the snow blower but I believe it is complete. I had a few ongoing charging issues with turned into starting problems and a grinding noise when the frame twisted. I have always been of the mentality that if im fixing something I might as well make it better.
So first its the drive shaft... the grinding was a bad rag joint which took out a hydraulic line so out came the old clutch drive shaft and in went a 2000 series shaft with Sams couplers. Great work done my sam and the shaft is 100% once again. This issue fixed... done    Next the charging issue, this one snow balled a bit but the fist time I hit the key it was the sound of success. I replaced the starter with a newer gear reduction one which is a dream in the cold with this diesel. This was a direct replacement with only having to do some clearancing on the motor mount below the starter. This thing cranks amazing now   Next, I updated the alternator with a Kubota 40A one, this is the upgrade I was most excited about. it was easier than I thought it would be. I offset the lower mount about 1.125 and spaced it .75". I then elongated the top bracket hole then the alternator slid right in like it belonged there all along. As far as wiring it was simple, the main charge wire I ran to the battery with a fusible link inline, then the one wire off the plug I spliced into the yellow wire going into the factory voltage regulator (which I now eliminated due to the new alternator having it built in) I measured out a larger belt and whalla 14.2v charging at idle... a beautiful thing. U updated the key switch as well just to have a complete new system.      All in all, everything I did cost about $400, This thing is set for many years to come. Im very happy with the outcome. Next will be the glowplugs... and going thru that system. I'm going to enjoy this for a bit before I tackle that tho.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
