Ryan,
Looks good. Man, I like the look of those engines. Reminds me of a mini V8.

Well gentleman, I got some more work done tonight. Not as much actual work as I had hoped, but I made progress none the less. Tonight turned out to be more of a cosmetic night than anything else. I got the seat, fenders, and fuel tank removed. Took it outside and pressure washed the machine off. She was DIIRRRTTYYY, although I've seen pics on here of worse. I snapped a few before and after pics. Hope you guys enjoy, and hopefully more progress pics to come tomorrow

Couldn't figure out how to get the back close off plate off either? I did the same with my 61 a few weeks back. I'd like to know how that comes off with the adjuster cam through it. I ended up just hosing it off like you did.

Did the diff work loose from the frame?

All you have to do to get it off (as far as I could tell) is completely screw out the adjustment cam. As far as the diff bolts working loose, they were still snug on this one. Then again, it's still a relatively low hour machine but we'll see how time treats her.

I went back out and did a bit more work tonight. Sorry, no more pics I got the fuel tank and fender pan re-installed along with new fuel line run. I had to stop because I have to get a couple new nuts and bolts before I can move on any further. And lastly, I tightened up the steering a bit as well as cleaned and re-packed my first CV joint on a Cub. Thanks to Sam for making sure to remind me to do it I was a little unsure going into it but once I got it opened up, it was like riding a bike. Clean, repack, close it up, pretty simple. Definitely much better than rag joints. Anywho, that's it for the night, I'm going to turn in. Hope you guys are enjoying the progress and pics as much as I am enjoying working on her!

Correct. Kinda. There is a nut in the end that keeps it from completely unscrewing. You have to take it off first.


It's progressive Ryan!! Looking good!

Really? I don't recall seeing a nut, I thought the end of the screw was flared so it couldn't be unscrewed all the way. Not really a biggie anyway, but I'll look next time I have the tunnel cover off. Thanks

Yep. It's left hand thread too. Make sure to turn it the right way.

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.
