Default 782D advice--- moving engine

I need to remove the driveshaft to replace the hydro fan.

I'm not sure how much clearance I need to accomplish this. I know that there's 4 motor mount bolts....is it possible/likely that if I just remove these bolts and push the engine forward a half inch or so, I'll get enough clearance to remove the shaft?

If so, that's not so bad. If not, well.....

Yup, you can do it that way.

John, don't mess with the rubber mounts. The complete engine/radiator assembly will move as one. Just undo the bolts that hold the engine mount to the frame.

Good time to replace the water pump belt and check all the ball bushings too.

OK, hopefully I can just slide things forward a half inch or so ... which might be enough to drop the driveshaft?

Default later that day....................................

Well, I tried the 4 rubber motor mount bolts, have the spirol pin out of the rear, the four bolts loose on the front and rear trunions and ....

.... there's not enough room.


I'll now go look and see what's up with removing the four main cradle to frame. I'll go bolt the donuts back to the cradle.

I now remember why I didn't do this job when I bought the fan replacement two years ago!

Took a break.

Ate lunch

Played with the cat.

Went back to work on the diesel. By loosening all the bolts on the front trunions , removing the nuts on the rear , removing the roll pin and loosening the 4 rubber dounts , I was able to scootch the rear of the driveshaft out of the ball bushing (in good shape).

Got the new fan on, left it loose so I could scoot it back and forth while putting everything back together , put in new roll pin (note to self, beveling one end on the grinder and oiling 'em up really lets em go in easy) and safety wired em.

I got almost everything back...need to put the grill and hood back on , (and put new spade lugs on the harness...oops! Forgot to remove one connection on the harness) and double check everything .

A good days work. Those front trunion bolts are fun to get to. I need to order one new trunion and probably a new driveshaft as the front has some slop in it. Tappet wrenches are handy holding some of those front bolt heads!

Thanks for the help. I know how this goes together (and apart) better now.

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.
