Steering play
I was wanting to fix the steering play on my 2155. Ive seen videos of people replacing the bearing at the bottom of the steering column above the gear but it doesn’t appear the 2000 series has that? All I can see on the parts diagram is a bearing at the top of the column, under the steering wheel, the only thing around the gear at the bottom are washers and the nut. Would the bearing at the top of the column be the culprit, or does anyone have any experience with steering play on these 2000 series models?

There are a number of factors that contribute to "play" in the steering. First, I would look at the (4) 923-0156 Ball Joints. These are noted for getting worn out.

Sorry I should have been more specific. The play I’m referring to is where the steering wheel turns a good bit before the wheels actually start to turn.

Are you saying that the Steering Wheel moves but the Pinion Gear lags ?? Or is there "play" between the Pinion Gear and the Sector Gear?

I have to turn the wheel a good 1/4-1/2 turn before the wheels start turning. No wobble or shaking that I can tell.

This is the 2155 steering assembly.
There is a bearing (p/n 29), but more likely would be a worn pinion gear (p/n 14). Also, look for worn/loose ball joints (p/n 16). Or it can be a combination of all of the above. https://www.cubcadet.com/en_US/conte...9e954575786b/y |

I noticed my 2155 had a lot of road wander and discovered that the axle channel bolts were missing. Replaced and adjusted per the manual and it drives in a straight line again. Easy fix.

Ok I finally got to look at it real good. The pinion gear looks good it’s not slipping or grinding. And the ball joints on the axels are good and tight. I think the problem is either the ball joints on the other end of the tie rods (near the gears) or the tie rods themselves need adjusting.

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.
