Default 125 Brake Repair Question
Hi all, need a little help/info on how to get at the brakes in my 125. They are the internal style. The brakes didn't work when bought it, and the PO had unhooked the linkage that runs to the clutch/brake pedal, presumably because the brake actuating arm had seized up. I've split the tractor but am wondering how to get this actuating arm out? I don't see any snap/retaining rings on the pin that holds it in, and have been trying the PB Blaster bath and BFH with no success. Am I missing something?

I assume you're referring to the pin that the arm pivots on. The only thing holding it in is the square headed adjusting screw with the jam nut. The screw passes thru a groove in the pin. Remove the screw and you should be able to drive out the pin unless it's frozen in there in which case you may need to apply some heat to it.

Yup you have ID'd the correct part I was asking about. I've gotten the screw out so I will have to borrow a "red wrench" from a buddy it seems...

Don't put too much heat to it because I've heard of cast iron cracking if it gets too hot.

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.
