Cub Cadet Original Deck Issue
Good morning! I am having an issue with my Cub Cadet "Original" mower deck. When I purchased the tractor, whenever I started it up the blades would be spinning (not good!) even when the deck was disengaged. I did some investigating and eventually found that both of the drive pulley bearings (not the spindle pulleys) were shot so I replaced them. I also found the previous owner didn't use the right length belt on the spindle drive (was 2" too short, which caused the engage/disengage plate to not have much travel - maybe 1/2"?). I replaced it with the proper length belt and adjusted the clutch rod length to make it shorter. I now have a good 1-1.5" travel length, which is what I want. Before I put this thing back on the tractor, does this look right?

The spindles stop moving only because I have a block of wood under the deck and they hit it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

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.
