In my opinion having done a couple. I stalls is definitely spray the heck out of the pins holding the couplers into the shaft. And just pay attention to where all the bolts go. Once you get the rear-end out of the machine its pretty straight forward. Also pull the engine before you pull the rear. One it makes the machine lighter and two your not fighting the frame when pulling the engine. Its pretty straight forward like I said. It never hurts to take pics

It is possible to install a creeper gear without spliting the tractor but unless you have two elbows on one arm the job is so much easier when you can get to the front of the tranny. If you currently do not have a creeper on the tractor you have to alter i.e. shorten or replace the driveshaft because the creeper requires a shorter driveshaft.

I already have a creeper and two drive shaft set ups so I'm good to go there. Winter is coming so it would be a good time to just pull everything and do a clean up and paint job.

Default creeper gear install

Also it is good to know if the creeper gear has good oil seals,once installed my creeper gear leaked hydro oil,so I had to pull it out for a rebuild.I raised my tractor and stood it on its rear end to ease access to it.

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.
