Default Kohler Magnum M20S PTO shaft size

It has always been my understanding that the M20 had a 1 1/4" PTO shaft size, which was an odd ball and took a special (much more expensive) PTO clutch. I've discovered the one I have that came out of a Cub Cadet 2082 originally has a 1 1/8" PTO shaft just like my M18 does. Are there some out there that were 1 1/8", or is mine an odd ball somehow with a non Cub Cadet engine/crankshaft in it? Or do I have an M18 masquerading with an M20 ID tag, and M20 decals on the engine tins?

I have a 2082. I will try and find an easy way to check it. Might be a few days or weeks, it is too hot outside to do anything here in Tennessee.

Don’t go tearing stuff apart to see. It’s more of a curiosity than necessity. With that being said you might be able to tell by taking the bolt off that threads into the shaft.

Thanks, if Roland were still here he would probably have solved this by now.

I found some interesting info, I'm going to dig out my calipers and go check both of my engines. Maybe it's not engine specific but Cub model/size specific, According to this below, the Supers with Magnums used 1 1/4" and non supers (KT and Mag) used 1 1/8". I never actually measured mine, but I ASSUMED the M18 would have been 1 1/8" because I've never had one that wasn't, and this one came off a 1711 repower. I just know my PTO clutch fits both of them. See below:

Warner Front Electric Complete PTO Assembly 1 1/4 inch shaft P/N 717-3043 USE 917-3043 Fits 1872, 2072, 2082

Warner Front Electric PTO Assembly W/ Spacer #1 1 1/8 in. crank
P/N IH-144720-C91, 717-3003, 717-3044, 717-3038 Fits 682, 782, 784, 1872, 2072, 1050, 1204, 1210, 1211, 1282, 1535, 1541, 1710, 1711, 1712, 1806, 1810, 1811, 1860, 1862, 1882

I just confirmed both of my engines, the M18 and M20 are 1.125” shafts. Both came off Cub Cadet tractors too.

According to the Kohler Parts Manual I have for M18 & M20 engines,
The Spec Number shown in The Grinch's photo (49512) show a Variation Number 0f 93.
That Variation Number in the grid for crankshafts declares that it should be
1 1/4 dia x2 23/32 (tapped pto) p/n 52 014 71

So I guess the next logical question is what are the spec nos. on your engines?

My spec on the M20 is 49584. I’ll look for the M18 one next time I’m out in the shed, but that one is “normal” as far as the shaft size goes.

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.
