What I'm saying is, make sure it's not stuck on the clutch, then pull harder. It will slide forward.
Note: The 3 pin driver on a QL gear drive has a "flex disk" driver. It's part of the whole "anti-vibration" crap. Most of the time you will find this driver is broken. They show availability, but aren't cheap. This is why I recommend replacing the rubber mounts with solid ones, then switching the 3 pin driver to a standard one. Have fun!  |
So, since I am needing to replace the pressure plate assembly, you are recommending solid mounting the engine and the "standard" clutch assembly. Excuse me for not being too knowledgeable on these , as this is my first Cub, but what part numbers or for what tractor am I looking for. I don't want to have to go through this again.
Thanks!!!
