Sounds like you’re plates are stuck. Common issue with one that been sitting for a while. This is to say the clutch is assembled correctly. Lock the pedal down and gently try to seperate the rear plate away from the disk. There may be some surface rust on the shaft or ID of the plate where it rides on the shaft. After you get it freed up, adjust it correctly per the manual

The disc was definately seized on my 126, it freed up with some brake cleaner but it was so thin it ended up breaking apart anyway so I pulled it out today, have the new one in place now but I still have to put all the bolts/pins back and then adjust the linkage, I'll let ya know how that goes tomorrow

Looking forward to hearing how this went!

I freed mine up as well, but just as yours broke, mine did as well. I've got to order one now. I found one for $32 plus shipping. Is that about what you paid? I guess it will take about 3 weeks to get here due to it being the busy season for shipping.

Does it make sense to dismount the engine bolts, pull it forward, and disassemble the clutch from there? Is there enough clearance to pull it forward to remove the shaft out of the clutch linkage?

Yes moving the engine ahead slightly helped alot, I removed the heat shield off the front of the head and unhooked the pto linkage, that allowed the motor to move ahead about 1.5".

I didnt have to buy a clutch, I got two new ones with my parts tractor.

Good News. Shouldn't be too bad. Just hope those roll pins pop out of the clutch linkage without too much trouble. Thank you sir! I've got the new plate on order and it says it will deliver Friday. Hopefully I'll be putting her in gear sometime this weekend.

I changed the whole setup from clutch disc to the coupler on the drive shaft at the tranny, the whole assembly drops out as a unit once the engine is moved ahead but the pin in the coupler is hard to get at, with just changing the disc alone you may not have to take any pins out.

You have to take the whole unit out. The spring has to be compressed to take the disc out. Maybe you realize that..... but the way you worded it, it sounds like you think you can change the disc with the clutch/driveshaft still in the tractor. You will have to make some kind of a jig to hold the assembly so you can compress the spring.

There is a great write up in the tech tips section detailing a clutch rebuild. Unfortunately, the pics are not working. The site had some upgrades done not long ago, and some of the hosted pics still haven't been corrected. Not sure why....

Download the manual for your machine. It goes through clutch rebuilding. You also should have both plates faced on a lathe.

Photobucket no longer allows third party hosting unless you pay for it. Pictures posted from a Photobucket account won't show up unless the poster updated his account by paying the fees.

As said previously, Photobucket now has a fee to use their service and the price is steep.

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.
