38" Deck Bearings
Good afternoon fellow members. Can anyone direct me to a write up on removing the seals and bearings on a IH 38-u1111 deck? Photos of what I am working on. Thanks in advance and have a great day.

Pop the seals out, making note of just how they are installed, as in which side is facing out, and the bearings will likely just fall out, then you may may to knock the races out with a drift, not brain surgery for sure.
Follow the parts diagram in the parts lookup for reassembly.

38" Deck Bearings
finfruskw, Thanks for the info. Not brain surgery for most but at my age every thing comes hard. Took me 5 minutes to remember what section I had posted my question. Going to give it a shot. Thanks so much for your help. People like you make this a great forum. Have a great day.

Mr. Bob, F.Y.I.
On the seals, one or the other, meaning top or bottom, is supposed to be "facing out". Meaning that one of them is installed opposite (or inside out) of the of the other. I have never seen any agreement on which one it should be, but the reason is so that when you are pumping grease into the spindle, the reversed seal allows grease to escape, thus preventing one or both seals from being popped out by the hydraulic pressure built up by too much grease being pumped in. FWIW, I learned that the hard way, hope it helps you.

I've never heard that before about the seals until i read up on it when I did bearings and seals on my deck. When I did mine I believe the seal that was facing blades was the one installed opposite of the upper one (closest to belt). just be careful when knocking races out, thin and long enough punch is what I used.

Just about all the ones of that type I have worked on are both installed the same way.
Just like Bobs are.

38" deck
The races are out. Located bearings at Advance auto for a decent price. Chinese bearings. Having trouble locating seals . So far only found them at CCC for $12.00 each. Probably some out there on the web. Just haven't found them. I doubt that my grease gun could blow out a seal. When the handle starts to pull harder, I quit pumping. Will try to get it back together when I purchase the seals. Thanks for all the input and have a great day.

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.
