Default Model 70 mower deck rebuild

I bought this tractor many years ago. It is a 1963 vintage tractor. It has been rebuilt and painted with all the original colors. Due to issues with life and being lazy, I'm now starting on the deck.
According to research, they used a cartridge type spindle, part number IH-473436-R93. Any information would be helpful in trying to identify if these are bad, can be taken apart or fixed to operate. Since I'm sure these don't exist on the open market anymore, I need some wisdom as to where to go from here ?

You're talking like this?
Yes, very rebuildable as long as the keyway slot is not boogered up.
Bearing, races and seals are available online.

Thankyou Ironman for that information. This appears similar to the tapper roller bearing spindles on my 50C deck which I just rebuilt.
Question, is the shaft held in there by a snap ring ?

No, the hollow bolt with the grease fitting holds it all together.
That big nut on the pulley is not a nut, just to hold the pulley in place if needed.
The ring that you see in the picture on the right is a spacer between the upper and lower roller bearing.
It keeps them from getting squeezed into the races and binding up.
If you replace the grease seals put them in with one seal facing up and one seal facing down.
That's to provide an escape for the grease pumped in. Otherwise hydraulic pressure will pop them out.

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.
