It wasn't stated, but the OP also has these threads:

He's typing in invisible ink and only a few can see it.

It doesn't. I looked through his recent posts and he has just picked up a 1200 and has been working on it. And I've had one apart and it's the same as stated above

Again I agree that he needed more info but the pics give it away that it's out of QL

I'm going by what the picture shows, and it looks to be PART of the 3 pin flex plate driver from a 1200 QL or possibly even a 1000 QL.

I have both and they are just like that. Purchased a NEW 3 pin driver to fix a 1000 just last spring and that is what was shipped, a complete ass'ly.

I suppose a screw driver would work also, didn't for me.
What I was dealing with is the same thing, only the flex plate on mine was completely broken away from the rest, busted all around the bolt holes.
What was left of the flex plate would not come off of the pilot bearing housing. If I still have the part I will post a picture.

Sorry to ruffle any feathers.

Well...........seems to me. If a person wants help, they need to give clear, concise, and accurate information if they want clear, concise, and accurate answers. Members here should not have to dig and look elsewhere for information that should be upfront.

Lately, we have seem to run across this more and more, and then people trying to give answers - get testy. They are trying to get additional information, then the PM's fly that someone has got an attitude or cocky, and it stirs up a whole bunch of crap.

Lets see an exact Cub Cadet tractor model or Kohler Engine Model and Spec number. Then all of us can be on the same page.

guys, I sincerely apologize for not making it clear as to what exactly I was working on. It is indeed a 1200 . I really do like this forum, I dont want to
cause any grief for anyone. You all have tons of good info to share. Maybe it best to Close this thread.

thanks
Dave

Hey Daniel1962,

The Hub adapter in your pictures and the ball bushing are two separate parts, the ball bushing (and it's little housing) should be pressed into the hub adapter but shouldn't be too difficult to remove. As Merk suggested you may be able to pry it out from the outer edge with a small screw driver, or it may be a little more difficult and may requite a bearing removal tool or slide hammer.

Behind that bushing is the nut that holds the flywheel AND the hub adapter on. Remove the nut (probably 15/16") then gently tap the hub adapter back and forth, once it loosens wiggle it until comes off, sometimes they are difficult, it has a locating pin that may hold it fast. The hub adapter can be damaged, so be careful.

As some have suggested, IH did make a change somewhere during production but I don't believe this is of any consequence in your application. Someone correct me if I'm mistaken.

Do not fret over the "heat" contained in this thread, most of it is not your fault. However it is best to include a model number in a post as many of us can't remember who owns what tractors and it makes things easier for anyone who wants to reply.

Good luck with your project.

[R Bedell]

This is why it is important to give all the information. In this case, the bushing was changed at serial number 612807.

The Bushing has to be pried or pulled out to get to the nut behind it.

The Drive Cub is: KH-041-071-03
The Bushing is: 941-3004
The Bushing is: IH-126205-C2

I've done the same thing on Chevys, not sure I'd want to be hammering on the crank on one of these but if I couldn't get it out any other way I'd give it a shot.

Guys

Figured I would apologize for going Nuke on finsruskw yesterday.

Yosemite Sam this has probably just fueled the PM blizzards, sorry buddy.

Daniel1962, I know you and I are good, thanks for the PM.

So to all, sorry for being a bit of an A$$ yesterday.
