YET Another Driveline Question
I know this has been talked over ad nauseam on the forum and the diesels are hard on the driveline, but I am looking for advice on the driveline as it pertains to the rear PTO. While doing the driveway over the last few weeks, I noticed the driveline has been getting louder and louder on my 1572. Since I was in-between multiple storms I just rode with it. Now that I have a breather, I spent last nite to take the driveshaft and clutch for the rear PTO off of the 1572 before it rattles itself apart. Luckily I did, the safety wire must have snagged something and broken. It was found amongst the oily grass clippings on top of the rear-end. When I get the parts and have it fixed, I'll throw it back on.
A little history on my 1572, it has had the rear-PTO installed since it was new back in 1987. It also has had this section of the driveline repaired or replaced at least 3 times. One time this repair was done at the dealer, who told me one roll started walking out and as it gradually walked out, it was shaving a groove in the tunnel on the bottom of the fuel tank. So time has come again to service this section. There must be a better design than what is used. Having the weight of the rotor of the rear PTO clutch spinning on this shaft with the pounding away at it as it runs is like having a remote flywheel. There has to be a better way. Any ideas for absorbing a rotating loading shock on this shaft?

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.
