Default 1782 drive shaft question
My new to me 1994 1782 has a wobble in the drive shaft at the rear CV joint. I took it apart and the 1/4-20 bolt that holds the rear half of the CV joint to the pump was backing out, allowing the CV joint to move forward half way off the spline. There is some play in the CV to pump spline interface but I'm not sure how much is normal.

My question is, is the 1/4-20 bolt that keeps the rear CV joint half to the pump spline supposed to be tight, or does the CV joint need to float back and forth on the spline a bit? I am assuming tight and the spline at the engine allows the shaft the necessary adjustment.

The CV joint itself shows minimal wear, and had grease in it still.

Thanks,

Eric

That bolt should be tight.

I figured but thought I would double check. The threads were a bit messed up in the spline so I chased those, new bolt with lock washer and blue locktight, put it all back together and it's working great!

Thanks!

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.
