Here's a few pictures of my Creeper installation Mission Creep project.

The rear end opened up. Clean as can be.

The reduction gear. How in the world do I get this off? Everything turns when I try to loosen it.

The brake disc looks ok, but the pads are stuck, probably because the retainer is stuck tight.

Default reduction gear

I think the manual says ; remove gear shifter , lock trans in 2 gears , and remove cap screw . Lift gear up and pull bottom out first. Also the reduction pinion is held in by seal if I remember correctly. Chris

Do they state how to lock the trans in two gears?

If I can locate an impact driver. do I still have to lock the trans in two gears?

Also, does the retainer come out very easily? Mine looks to have a bit of rust on the outside. I was looking at the garden tractor pulling tips website, and read about gluing the brake pucks/pads in place. Is this necessary?

You won't need to lock trans if using impact gun to take cap screw out, but when you retorque upon reassembly it would probably be best. You might be able to wedge a piece of wood against housing and gear upon reassembly, but I don't know if it's acceptable . Your best bet is to read the manual in the tech library. get the shifter off, if you do, gently push 1 shifter fork forward, and the other backward and the trans will be locked up. Good time to check shifter condition also. A good torque wrench is needed. The manual will give you a step by step. You can do it. Have fun, Chris Also , just a dab of grease will hold pucks in place.

You really need to grab the service manual from the tech library. That will answer all of your questions and more.

Got the service manual and removed the reduction gear and housing.
Wanted to know what you guys think of these pictures.

Do the reduction gear and brake disc look ok?

My grandfather silver soldered the shifting forks. I guess it won't be a problem as the repair has lasted 45+ years.

Can't get the brake lining retainer out. How would you guys do it?

The reduction housing has two holes where the lower bolts go through. Anyone seen this before? Might be a casting thing as I found no pieces anywhere and the rear end has never been apart.

Your puck's don't look too bad.You will be able to push out the puck on the top of the pic from the inside.I would not try to remove the inner one as it appears to be in good shape.

Just my 2ยข

Anyone know what size of O ring I need for the brake lining retainer? I cannot find anyone that sells them. Also, both the brake pucks measure out to 0.313" thick. Do I need new ones?

Where did you go or what information did you give them?

If you go to Cub Cadet's web site
http://www.cubcadet.com/webapp/wcs/s...07=Search&008=
you will find an icon in the middle of the page that says Find a Matching Model. When the new page comes up click on select line under Find Parts by Model. Click on the Garden Tractor folder. The different models folders will up. Click on the model number you are working on. Another screen will open and it will have the list of the different areas of your Cub Cadet. Item #4 is the o-ring. Cub Cadet says the size of the o-ring is 1-3/16 X 1-3/8 X 3/32 . Take those dimensions to an auto parts, dealer that sells tractors or trucks. They should be able to find you the correct o-ring.


You one picture that shows the ball in the brake lining retainer looks to be the wrong size. The wrong size ball will give the problem you are having. Parts lookup says the ball should be a 9/16 diameter ball.

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.
