ok, thanks all. I had already looked at parts breakdown and prices from several businesses before I made the post. Had'nt found any aftermarket complete units but was hoping. There is a lot to be said for taking one off, bolting another on and bam, slide it back under and mow. mess with that heavy sucker one time and done, all tools on hand, boots on and in the mood. lol

After owning and rebuilding a 374 Haban I completely understand you not wanting to handle it!

I am fortunate to have access to a forklift and a chainhoist when working on mine! I always wondered what it really weighs in complete form.. never saw it published anywhere

I will use 2 jack stands and pick it up and roll it the foot or so to them. No big deal. A floor jack would work too. I got a tractor with a bucket but f all that. lol ,,,electric impact and 4 bolts and one nut for blade. its a joke to make a big deal out of a mower deck. If you only had a clue to what all i have done with and without all the proper stuff. A beginner mechanic should be able to figger it out and if they can't they should go apply at mcdonalds or something not too hard on their brain.. but if anyone wants to come do it so they can show how much they know and can do and me watch I might take the risk of letting them. and then I might tell them just hold it right there. you should do this and that and so on, but I dont have the time to mess with all that so. lol I just ask if they made a complete assembly for it and it would be new totally, I don't feel that I need to ask if that would be ok unless it was their money and their little tractor. I don't feel real humbel after working alongside the young men doing a young man's job all day. not after recuperating from all the things that have happened to this old body of mine that most would have gave up years ago. And then I know i'm wasting my time spelling it all out.

Well Mr. Mechanic, if you would just go do it, you'd already had it done. In the amount of time you've wasted talking about it and looking for a complete assembly, I could have taken it apart, bought the bearings and had it done. If you're so good and know so much, then get the d*** thing fixed! If you're too "tired and hurt" to fix it, take it to a shop and pay some "young buck" to fix it for you.

And it wouldn't have held up one pass around my field. as it needs a shaft, key and pulley etc.

Whatever you say there big dog. I don't usually get too excited about failed parts until I open them up and see how bad it is. Been a mechanic for 20 years, but I still don't have x-ray vision. I still don't know how you think it needs a shaft but the housing is fine. The housing is completely shielded from view. I don't care how good you think you are, there is no way to know until you take it apart.

Like I said, I've been a mechanic for about 20 years, and also a farmer/equipment operator for longer than that. What I want to know is, how did a guy as smart as you say you are, completely miss the fact that his spindle was failing? Maybe you're not so good at servicing your equipment? Maybe you just don't have much experience operating equipment..... or maybe you're only half as good as you think you are. Whatever the reason, I think you've wasted enough time on this thread.

I'm the one laughing right now. Laughing about how an ace tech such as you, completely missed a failing bearing and ran his tractor until it needs as many parts as you say it does. I just can't figure out how you overlooked that. I mean, you can see what parts you need before disassembling a component. I'm surprised you couldn't see what parts you needed before it started throwing sparks everywhere.

It was easier and cheaper to just call the local cub dealer and get straight answers without all the insults. Parts will be here soon enough that I won't have to get the 100 horse NH and 16 ft batwing out after it.

Oh, at least you're "recuperating".
All anyone was trying to do was help you with experiences we've had, and possible save you some money. Trying to be helpful, but seems you've got it all figured out.

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.
