Original Clutch issues
So still working out all of the bugs in my new to me original. Moving on to the clutch. So it sat for many years and the clutch was "stuck" when I got it. Left it in gear, pushed in the clutch and rocked it back an forth a bit and it started to roll.
So now that I have it running I push in the clutch but the drive shaft continues to spin. I can get it in gear but the gears grind a bit. Once in gear the tractor stays stopped with the clutch pushed in. At first I figured it was just that the clutch was just a little sticky yet. Drove it for a while, engaging and dis-engaging the clutch to work it a bit but still no change. So did a deeper investigation and found with the clutch pushed in the pressure plates do separate from the belt pulley. But when trying to manually turn the drive shaft there is a fair amount of resistance. I also notice a fair amount of "slop" in the belt pulley with the clutch pushed in. Did some digging and found a clutch diagram and studied it a bit but I am a bit baffled at what would be causing this resistance with the clutch pushed in. Any recommendations before I pull the entire clutch assembly? Thanks, Ryan

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.
