Steering box gasket thickness???
hi all,
I bought this gasket and wondering if its thick enough b4 I install it. It looks like the metal lip would hit before the gasket gets to compress. But maybe I got it figured all wrong...

Last time I worked on one, the lip of the cover extends down over the side of the aluminum case so it doesn't stop any compression of the gasket.
In any event it's only grease, not oil, and it's not under pressure unless you pump 10 lbs. in there.l

Yep... no worries. It's certainly not there to seal anything under pressure that's for sure. Chassis grease isn't going to go anywhere fast even with just that wimpy "seal"

The gasket piece should be a foam gasket.
They are nla from Cub Cadet. The early John Deere garden tractor used the same steering box-assembly. John Deere part numbers are Retainer-M45569 Seal-M45568

I've used packing foam to make a gasket-seal

Same here only used thin sill sealer foam.
Best to clamp the ass'y in a vise, attach the steering wheel and then adjust it for best firm feel w/o binding. Be sure and run it back and forth through several cycles while adjusting for best results,

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.
