Default Repairs of the 2086

Yesterday I started tearing the 2086 apart to repair a nasty crank seal leak on the flywheel side and replace the plastic cam gear in the Kawasaki. While I have the engine out I plan to replace the lifters, pushrods, water pump, all the hoses, and go through the carb. Also while the motor is out I'm going to run the lines for a set of front hydraulic outlets and a second valve. I drive shaft is in need of some service so I plan to disassemble the joints to clean and grease them. I am have trouble getting the boots to separate from the rest of the coupling, is there a trick to get them apart without destroying the boots, they appear to be in good shape? When it gets back together I have a new grill and a better hood to put on. Been collecting parts all winter.

I use a scraper between the CV joint and the boot, it has a metal ring molded into the rubber.

I see the seam but wasn't sure if the ring was part of the boot or part of the coupler body, at $25 a piece I didn't want to tear up a perfectly good boot. Any particular type of grease for the joint, I'm sure this has been discussed but I can't find a thread that talks about it. Not a lot of information on the Kawasaki powered tractor on this forum, have to rely on a greener site.

Some people use CV joint grease, I just use Mobil1 because that's what I use on all my stuff. Grease it a couple time during the season and you should be fine. Yep you will probably find more info on the Kawi on WFM.

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.
