Question 109 Driveline

Hi Everybody, Just purchased a 109 that someone put a k301 in and the driveline was trashed, So I put a new one in and it looks to be about 3/8 to 1/2 inch to high to lineup with the hyd. unit. The motor is a 1985 k301, spec #47504 which from what I researched is for a 1972 IH. and should be the right oil pan. Bolts and Bolt holes in the trans are all like new.(no movement) Can someone please help ?

I would loosen the bolts at the differential/transmission and see if I could raise the pump input shaft for better alignment. Short of that not doing any good, you might be able to shim the front of the engine a little higher.

This is assuming you can't find anything else wrong including the correct solid drive coupler on the engine.

Default Did that

I SHIMMED THE FRONT OF THE MOTOR WITH A .080 SHIM AND LOOKED LIKE THE CENTER WOULD ALIGHN BUT THE FLEX COUPLER WOULD BE WORKING A LOT. Did not seam like that would last very long ??

How about loosening the rear end and see if you can raise it.

I would think the pump driveshaft and crankshaft should be line/line and in the same plane. That rear coupler and driveshaft aren't meant to run at an angle to each other.

Silly question, there isn't a bunch of washers or shims between the engine base and the mounting holes for some odd reason is it? You never know what the last guy was thinking sometimes

Did you get a new drive coupler on the engine?
As far as alignment, it looks pretty close to me,looks to be an 1/8" off.BTDT

The shaft doesn't align perfectly.... that's why it has flex couplers.

The stub ( small ) end of the driveshaft fits into the rear coupler.

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.
