Driveshaft material
For those building your own driveshafts, what do you use for material? I used 4140 for my 982 but I can't remember if I got regular or pre-hard. The pre-hard matl from McMaster has a larger tolerance. I'd prefer ground matl but that ain't cheap. Looking to get a 6' pc, should be able to get 4 shafts out of it.

I got a length from McMaster of chrome-moly 4140 5/8ths in diameter part # 8927K98 . $ 14.85 for the 3' length, and $25.61 for the 6' length.

Thanks guys. I ordered 6' of the 5/8 4140 matl that is .003 undersize tolerance.
Our resident metals expert wasn't at work today, so I didn't get to ask his opinion on the 1144 matl. We use tons of 4140, but I can't ever recall using 1144. I doubt either one will make a difference in this application. Correction to my original post--I believe 6' of matl will only yield 3 shafts--thats 2 more than I need at the present time.

They come in handy, when you want to give someone, "the shaft", that is.
Let see some pics when you get the done.

I bought one made of "stress proof" material before for a 1200. when I installed it and initially started it, that shaft bent like a wet noodle. I am wondering if it was what the seller had claimed it was.
I don't remember who I got that one from it was several years ago. I wound up buying another, made out of a different material from same seller, that job was for someone else and I wound up eating the cost of one of them.... At the time, it was someone that claimed to make parts for pulling tractors, that much I do remember. and that they highly recommended the stress proof material, for a totally stock, worker-bee tractor. |

If I remember correct, it is rated stronger than 4140. Most of what we run at work is pre-hard 4140, seems to fit most customers needs. I'll get my buddy to explain more about the 1144. He's been playing with tool steels for the last 50 years. I highly doubt there is any noticeable difference for most green tool steels in a stock Cadet. I wonder if it even matters to pullers? Is there such a thing as driveshaft failure assuming a stronger steel was used? Not talking about 30 year old worn ends or wallered out holes from where the pins go.

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.
