Default S/G rebuild shops
My starter/generator locked up on me the other day. Boy does that make a lot of smoke! Fortunately I was off the tractor when it started to happen and I noticed the smoke and started towards the controls when it actually locked and started to lose RPMs. I can't believe the belt is not worse than it is. Anyways, the only good local shop closed a few years back. Can anyone recommend a shop to rebuild these units? I searched but did not really find much.

Thanks!

Go to a local mechanic shop. Independent ones are the best. They may be able to recommend a place. Sometimes parts stores know of places, and so do a lot of heavy equipment dealers. I can recommend several..... in Illinois, but I'm not sure that helps you any.

I dont know of any good shops near you. But if yer the adventurous type. I'd open it up and see what made it lock. Brush/bearing kits are cheap. I've redone a few myself

Open it up and see, but if you've let the smoke out, I don't know that you're going to be able to fix it yourself.

Good Luck.

Generators and starters I typically don't open up since 9 times out of 10 the armature needs turned and the segments undercut, etc. So I just usually go ahead and go to a shop that has does a complete job. Unless its stupid expensive and then I threw a set of brushes in and try to get a little more time.

I did find a shop that was recommended to me in the next town over that I pass through everyday. I will give them a whirl.

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.
