How to seal a seal
For some reason my rear crank seal that I replaced 6 years ago worked it's way down the crank into the block and against the bearing. Needless to say, I lost a lot of oil. When I install the new seal, do you put grease on the ID and OD? Or is there something else that works better?

Grease the i.d and leave the o.d dry, make sure the block is free from grease and oil before installing the seal.

I'm interested to in this. i just took my pro off and i noticed the seal was a little crooked. i touched it and it went back into the block. i was thinking a locktite/rtv of some sort when going on? maybe the seal i had was a little looser than than should be? I had a Kohler one that i put in. the new one is a stens.

I have always used Permatex Aviation Gasket Sealer (brush on) on the OD of any seal I've installed. Never had one move or leak from the OD.

On those rubeer coated seals, the biggest mistake people make is putting something on the OD. If they aren't dry when installed, they won't hold. Other mistake people make is driving them in too far. I'm not a fan of them, but that's what usually comes in the kit.

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.
