Default Driveline Clutch, compress spring

Need some ideas on how to compress clutch spring to put the roll pin in. I know they make a special tool for this, but i do not have it. Any ideas? Thanks

On your 1050 you could do it as they show in the 70/100 manual pages 17 and 18.

I stick the 5/8" shaft in a vise and clamp slightly. the spring is resting against the vise.

Tap the shaft end with a soft face hammer.

When the spring is compressed enough, tighten the vise, and install the pin.

When you realize the hole is not properly oriented to allow you to get the pin in, slowly release the vise, realign and start over!!

A couple weeks ago my son and I rebuilt a clutch on an original and had to replace the spirol pin that is at the end of the long spring. We used a vise while my son braced the engine end of the shaft in front of his hip and grabbed the vise and compressed the spring I tightened the vise and changed the pin then slowly let the vise loose and viola pin changed. It pays to have a rather strong person do this and pad the end of the shaft but it worked for us without having to find someone with a press.

That looks like it would make it an easy job. Nice design work.

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.
