Geez Todd I'm glad to hear that you are alright.
I think IH calls those "second" nuts "Gripco" nuts. I have a few of them on my 95 that I'm rebuilding and I replaced them all with nylon nuts and locktite. There isn't much vibration in that machine though. Anything on the 149 and I will absolutely use NEW Gripco nuts after seeing all the damage that can happen. Once used Gripco's may feel like their still biting, but for a few dollars, new ones will sure save a lot of grief and potential damage. Your heart's done pounding and is just pumping. Tomorrow is Tuesday. You'll get her back to new. Everyone have a great Fourth. |

zippy, thank you for documenting your close call for us. Hope we all learn from it!
Although I have never done it, I had pondered with the idea of fabbing in a bracket across the frame and mounting a pillow block bearing (such as pictured) on the driveshaft as rearward as room would allow, to reduce strain on the rag joint. Now I'm thinking that had something like this been in place, it would not have prevented zippy's nut from coming off (no pun intended) but it may have reduced some of the damage. Has anyone done this or have opinions about it (p.s. zippy I hope I'm not hijacking your thread but this seems to fit the topic) |

So..... I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this failure.
The driveshaft fits into a bearing on both ends. One on the engine side, one in the drive flange on the trans. So, with one bolt missing, the other bolt should still have kept the flange from moving back to let the shaft out of the bearing. While it would have caused a vibration, I don't understand how it came out of the bearing. Unless a bearing was missing, or the shaft was too short, how did it get out of the bearing? It shouldn't have been able to move out of it. I see the damage, I just don't understand how the shaft got out of the bearings with only losing one bolt. Doesn't make any sense to me. Should have just started vibrating, not came clear out. |

This makes me wonder... what if one lets go on one of the tractors with a plastic tunnel cover, like a 1641. |

I just don't think it should have come out of the bearings even if it did lose a bolt. I'm not just too certain I haven't found bolts missing on shafts before that were still running.... It seems like I have, but can't say for sure. |

Jay, that is the fan that was on the shaft when I got it. I have another that looks the same also.

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.
