Default trunion repair

Ok, I'm getting ready to do the trunion repair on my 782 and I am not real sure how to get the speed control bracket off so I can get to welding up the trunion? I can see down where it conects bot unsure of how it comes off?

I plan on doing the wet rag thing but I want to remove this bracket so I can repair it also. It is very worn and needs to be re-shaped also. I can't belive how dirty this beast is! I started to scrape all the years of dirt from it. The arrow points to the rod but I do not see a way to remove it? The pics i have found for the repair show this bracket removed from the pump?

There should just be a snap ring on the outside end of the rod.

WOW...that's worn really bad...you can see where the little button on the trunion spring is about to come through the side of the rectangular hole.

jbollis, is correct. There is a snap ring right where your arrow is.

If it were mine I would pull the transaxle out, wash it and then repair the trunion. A clean transaxle runs a lot cooler than a dirty one. Plus, it's a lot easier to repair the trunion with the transaxle out of the tractor. Just my opinion...

yeah I would love to just yard it all out but I do not have the time. I got limited space in my garage and don't need another project strewn out all over the place. I am planning on cleaning up the pump as good as I can while the fenders are off. The trunion is worn right through as you can see But I'm sure I can weld her up pretty good. I just want to put the old girl back to use as soon as possibe.

I did my 149 not long ago. . . For me it was easier to take 15 more minutes to pull the hydro than to fight the confined space in between those frame rails. plus cleaned it up. Took the whole Hydro chucked it in the vise. Turned out great. Had enough room to fine tune it with a file.

If you've already got a welder, how is that easier than welding and filing the corners? Something about welding that huge thing on there and throwing all that heat into the seal doesn't really sit well with me...

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.
