The dowel in the front of my drive shaft broke the other day. I was looking all over for a 1/4" x 1 1/2" dowel.My lousy local Cub dealer had nothing and didn't even know if he could get one, and neither of my local hardware stores had anything. I bought a grade 8 1/4" bolt and went home to see what I could do. I found what looks like the remains of a brass door hinge pin under the tractor where it stopped driving (luckily just outside and up hill of the barn door) and some more of it om the pan under the drive shaft.
![]() The shaft and cup are worn enough that I was able to get the 1/4" bolt ib there and put a nut on it. ![]() The tractor drives OK now but I know that there are some parts that have to be replaced. The drive cup and flywheel have a bunch of play in them. Click on the picture for a video. ![]() What parts do I need here and how involved a job is this gonna be? I figure that I will need the drive plate, flywheel drive, maybe a flywheel, and drive shaft? I am not clear on how I would get to these parts either. Split the tractor? Remove the engine? Please let me know what I an getting into here. Thanks

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.
