I am curious,when you tapped out the pins /studs that the balance gears turn on, did you tap them from the outside pushing them INTO the inside of the engine?
I hate the process of removing the balance gears.I have always had to bust the top one. Your way seems easier. I will try it next time. I will tap for a 1/2" pipe plug as J-Mech suggested.

Oh,by the way,,,,how are you going to bolt that tunnel cover back on? It looks like you cut the flange off of the bottom of the cover.

Yes I taped them in.
As for the tunnel cover, i plan on welding 1/8" angle to it so it will be a little more sturdy. after looking at it I thought it was going to be a little weak if I left the way it was. I also plan on welding fo flat steel around the joining edges. I think it should work well. I just need to figure a way to make it look good joining them up.

Sounds good! That is good information! Thanks!
A narrow frame hydrostatic tractor is THE hardest to work on. That removable cover will really make things easier!

I removed the balance gears from my 16 hp from the 169, with just the oil pan removed. Pulled the clips, and by carefully working the crank back and forth, and the gears, it finally wiggled through. Takes patience and finesse. But, it can be done without breaking anything, or driving out the pins.

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.
