The lift handle on the Narrow Frame tractors don't come apart like the Wide Frame ones do and I don't think the "L" shaped rod will turn in the assembly.

drill it out and use an easy out BTDT
Hint....drill a tiny hole first till you hit the top of the rod,then drill the bigger hole.Then fill that with PB blaster and let it soak.

On my 73 the rod was bent, so I pulled the rockshaft and cut the lift handle off and pulled the rod out the bottom.Did all my rework and welded it back in place.

Mine broke off on my 104 about a year ago and I could barely get needle nose vise grips on it. So I sprayed down inside the tube with blaster and let it soak. I was then able to use my 4 1/2 " grinder and take off 1/4 " off the top of the tube to allow me to get the needle nose vise grips on it to remove it. I cant tell if your old button has enough to get the needle nose grips on it. But thats how I got my old one off. Otherwise you will need to take off the lift handle and remove it from the bottom side where you will be able to remove the insides easier. After I got it all put back together I welded a bead to bring the height on the shaft back up and grinded it smoothe then added some paint to keep it from rusting then put the handgrip back in place. Hope this helps...

There's a lot great ideas here and I appreciate this. My biggest dilemma is my mig welder is 120 miles away right at my Dad's farm in PA.

I'll try some of the simpler suggestions and if all else fails, either the cub is going for a ride or I'm getting my welder back. I'll let you know how this turns out. Thanks for the suggestions.

Default It's Out!

I got the broken pin out!

Broken Implement Lift Pin for 125 (Removed).jpg

With my welder being over 100 miles away, I needed to resort to a different method. I went to Home Depot and bought a cheap one-dollar-fifty-cent 1/4 drive Husky socket and grinded out something of a toothy end like we see on a spanner wrench. Note how the points were grinded leaving the beefy teeth.

I then drilled a couple of sloppy "holes" on both sides of the broken lift release push button pin for something that my homemade spanner socket teeth can sink into and grab the part. It's sloppy because it was awkward to get started in the small and tight space on the "edge" of the pin. I started out with 1/8 inch drill bit and moved up to 3/16 drill bit.

It came out with little effort! It was cheap and took about 10 minutes to do once I got home from the store.

The whole lot of you provided me some great ideas and it sure did help lead me into this method..... I really appreciate the help. Thank You!

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.
