Didn't you have a thread on it? I remember this repair you are talking about.......
Maybe you just told me about it in conversation...... I have CRS.

Jon that was the CV conversion. I posted just after you did so go back and look at the pic I just put up, hope it makes sense.

Edit: I found a pic of the "Arm coupler" from Jeff in PA. What I did was tap the existing 1/4" holes for 5/16" or 3/8" set screws, I don't remember. Then drilled a 1/4" hole 90 degrees to the old hole for the spirol pin. Like I said I also put some Devcon plastic steel on the shaft to help fill the worn area. The set screws help to keep the whole mess for wobbling and allow you to get it centered. The pic is a replacement that Jeff in PA is making. I would bet that he could make one for you as I described, I would also make the part that fits over the shaft longer so that it engages more of the unused portion of the shaft. You'll have to measure how much longer it can be. In my experience there is around 1/4 of space between the pump seal and the coupler. That part of the shaft is not worn so a longer coupler will get things back to running nice and true.

here are my pics

Nasty twist in the hydraulic line. You'll see how much extra shaft you have to work with. I'm sure Jeff can make a longer coupler as I described above that will get you going. I'll PM him with a link to this thread to get his input.

Rob,
I can make you a longer coupler as Sam drew on my picture. All I need to know is how much extra room there is for the extra length.

If you don't have a measuring device, use coins to gauge the opening. I'll need to know exactly what coins and how many.

1/4-28 set screws OK?

Jeff

They can be made. You need the tools..... if you don't have the tools, a used one may be the way to go. You might see if Rescue11 can make you up a set. Not trying to volunteer anyone, as he may not have time.... I can make them... but I don't have any extra time now. I can't even get around to fixing my broke a$$ stuff... LOL.

Used may be the way to go for you. Try the sponsors.

The US Mint is very fussy with coin thickness tolerances. Different denomination of coins are different thicknesses.

( when reloading, a nickel is the difference in height between a .38 special and a .357 mag )

I'm not sure about your area, but my local NAPA does all sorts of hydraulic lines and A/C lines.

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.
