Can anyone tell me the easiest way to either remove dump valves or remove pump on my IH cub 123? I've got it moving forward, reverse is yet to come. It's been sitting in a barn for 10+ yrs when I found it, and rescued it. Long hours invested.

The 123, being a narrow frame tractor, will have to be "split" to access what you want to do.
Your best bet is to go to the Technical Library on this site and read the chassis service manual for your tractor. Pages 2-20 + will tell you what to do. https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/...ead.php?t=4641 |

You might be able to fix it without splitting the tractor. First, open the access panel on the driver's LHS where the fenders meet the frame. Using an air hose, blow out any loose debris that you can from that vantage point. Then, get some degreaser in a spray bottle and soak it down, rinse off, and then use the air hose again to accelerate the drying. When you have cleaned it to your satisfaction, then you can spray it with some lubricant (Like PB Blaster). Spray the nipples on top of the valve and soak them well with the lubricant. After allowing them to soak for a while, maybe a day or two or three after repeat spraying of lubricant, use a long shaft screw driver (or I prefer to use a piece of wood--kind of like a paint stir stick) and try to depress the nipple on the valve down. Once the lubricant does its thing, they should work freely and your reverse should return to your tractor, if the rest of the linkage is in order. It is worth a try before splitting the tractor, as that is quite a bit of work.
Hope that helps!! Cub Cadet 123

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.
