Thanks Sam! I thought I was correct, but didn't have a tractor here to look at. Your pic confirms!

The pics above seem to look the same as my 1572. I could be wrong but I think the pin in question is in the very top of one of the pics. I can see about half of it. As far as I can see mine looks the same. I could be wrong. I know you guys have way more experience with these cubs than me.

Thanks for all of the great help. After listening and study pics and manual I think I am getting closer. I think bracket lift #3 has slipped and seized to rocket shaft ass. #2. On mine the lock out holes in #3 and #1 do not line up. When I get these to line up I can then put it back together like pics. Do #3 and #2 have a split pin also. I only have 2. On #1 through #2 between the deck lift arms. I am also missing #5 Pin ass. lift. Would it be possible to get a couple of pic. with measurements of #5 and I will make one. On mine pin #4 went through hole in frame, front hole closest to cly. on bracket lift#3, through hole in cly. with cotter pin on back no #5 pin ass. lift at all. Hope it is not too big of job to get it lied up properly. If it is it will have to wait until after mowing season as I use it a lot 6 acres +- ever time. As it is I can put it together the way it was use for season and have to keep taking my wheels off when getting out of garage. It stills mows great and lifts lots high for mowing just not right and I do not like it that way. Thanks again Kevin.

OK, you’re not getting this. First lower the implement lift so that the hydraulic cylinder is in the retracted position. Next grab ahold of the rock shaft ( #1) and rotate it counter clockwise as far as it will go if you are standing on the right hand side of the tractor (see red arrow). Next put a pin in the hole where #4 goes. In float the pin simply pushes against the face of #1, they are not locked together (see blue arrow on#1 and dot on #4) Number 3 is supposed to float on #2. Number 2 is pinned to #1 (see green arrows). The lift links that connect the mower deck will need to be disconnected in order to do this.

Put some Power Blaster on #3, take the deck off, raise the lift, put some blocking under the lift arms and then lower the lift that should free it up. Don't worry about #5 just use the pin you have and add another in the other hole once you get it freed up.

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.
