Mechanical PTO question
How common is it to change the triangular spring on the PTO. When rebuilding/cleaning the PTO does everybody reuse their spring or change to a new one if given the chance (do they typically lose tension)? I've seen posts where some have used two springs for added holding power, is this common/recommended? At this point I will be using the unit for mowing (42" deck) and tilling (model 1) with one extension. Will be changing the bearing, thrust button and wear button, friction disc looks good. Direction and/or comments?

The "B" and "B" with brake PTOs came with two springs.
When you buy a new "rebuild kit" for a "B" or "B" type with brake the kit comes with two springs (and both should be used). With the same style PTOs I have read where some used two disks although I don't remember ever seeing one in person. Springs for these type PTOs can be purchased separately. The "A" style PTO used only one spring, and because of the way it is made, I don't believe that two (springs) could be used. It has been my experience that if the "A" springs get hot, they no longer "spring" and are useless. The "B" springs seem to be some better with regards to getting hot. Oddly enough, I have never seen an "A" type springs available without buying a "kit". If anyone knows if the "A" type springs are available I would greatly appreciate a heads 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.
