Smile Custom Driveline Outlook

Ok, I gathered information and measurements about making a new driveline from 4140 CM tool steel. The new will have a double flex disk at both driveline ends. The conclusion seems to be a simple procedure. First, here are my measurements for both components:

Single flex disk driveline:

1. Length = 18 5/8ths inches.

2. Shaft diameter recorded in four places, average = .626" .

3. Distance from rear of driveline -to - center of rear coupling hole: caliper measure = 1.098". Tape measure = 1 1/16th inch to 1 1/8th inch. Might be closer to 1 3/32 inch.

4. Distance from front of driveline -to- center of front coupling hole: caliper measure = 1.508". Tape measure = 1 1/2" inch.

Double flex disk driveline:

1. Length = 18 5/8ths inches.

2. Shaft diameter = .627".

3. Distance from rear of driveline -to- center of rear coupling hole: caliper measure = 1.223". Tape measure = 1 1/4" inch. * Note: Maybe a closer measure of 1 15/64 inch.

4. Distance from front of driveline -to- center of front coupling hole: caliper measure = 1.200". Tape measure = 1 3/16ths -to- 1 1/4". A closer measure could be 1 13/64".

New driveline details:

1. Diameter = .624".

2. Purchased in a 3' length.

Default Pictures

Note the hole locations shown below. The first picture is of the rear coupling hole locations. The single disk is on your left, and the double disk on the right:

The top of each driveline, as to the front coupling hole locations:

[/IMG]

Guessing, going by the amount of length shown that will enter the drive flange bushing, I assume this amount will also be granted toward the new custom double flex disk driveline:

The two mock-up driveline side -by- side. Appears that a simple front coupler hole location toward the rear tires a given amount will conclude the particulars of this custom driveline:

Default Longer carriage bolts needed

For the front double disk driveline coupling, there will need to be a replacement of the current factory single disk carriage blots for longer carriage bolts of the correct length. The current single disk carriage bolts are:

1. Length = 1.182".

2. Diameter = .367".

Note: I have the new Triangle drive flange included in the above picture of the double disk driveline mock -up.

**Note: I will install the k321aqs, and place the mock double disk driveline into the 1450. I'm not certain I have the front couple hole location figured out 100% because of the minimal difference in the rear coupler hole locations. Still in the information gathering process.

Also today, I got the hydro controls hooked up, along with the brake rod. I will adjust the brakes a little later. Got the rear back up light on, and the fender pan.

Its a bummer I don't have a good painting set up. Or I would have took the good old time making it look all pretty Got other tractors to get going on anyway!

I'm jealous as always. It's going to look fantastic when you're done, even without painting the entire thing.

Thanks! I still want to touch up areas on the outside tractor frame. I'm about ready to start tearing the engine tins off, and I will throw in some new engine gaskets while I'm here. Black and sliver will be the engine colors.

On another note: I decided to drop the tool room guy at work for the driveline service I thought I needed. Oak gave me a great idea, why not just use my good coupling to piolet the hole center in my new driveline? My drill press is at least a $200 pos, that also can do lathe work!

Anyway, my couplings front and rear, look good enough, so I'm not concerned about doing a 100% police correct driveline replacement.

I like the AGS on the rear. Looks very aggressive. Glad you are having fun with this restoration.

Yeah, those Firestones are killer. Expensive, but look like they hook up like nothing else.

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.
