Question 44 deck pulley removal
Everything looks decent considering.... except for this one pulley. "Ther's yer problem lady ret ther!" lol

So I got the top nut off, but the bottom nut ain't moving. I checked the diagram and it seems to show the pulley and the nut as one piece? So how do I get a puller on it without taking out the grease zerk? <Maybe that's the ticket?

The nut is part of the pulley.

If by chance the grease fitting is threaded, you can remove it. But I typically put a socket over the fitting for the puller to rest in and keep it off the fitting. And as bad as that pulley is, you may have to consider doing a little careful cutting if it isn't easily convinced to come off.

The weird part is the other pulleys look really good! It's like a family of metal termites took vengeance on just this one.

The "nut" does not screw off, it should (along with the pulley) slip off.

As "Thehud" said, put an old socket on the end of the shaft (but not one that will get into the threads) and strike it (the socket) SHARPLY with a hammer, that may jar the pulley loose from the shaft.

I don't think I'd try pulling it for very long before I just cut it off.

My humble 1/50th of $1....

Try heating that pulley/shaft junction with a torch, then while still hot SOAK it with good penetrating oil (PBBlaster Kroil, etc)

May need to do that a couple of times. Also, use the heat & penetrating oil bath on the lower nut. Had to do that to get the spindles off my 38A deck last winter.

If I recall correctly, both the blade nut and the nut that is part of the pulley are 1-1/8". If you don't have an impact driver, use a LONG wrench and breaker bar on the socket.

(Where is that red-faced " uh-oh...I just popped a hernia" smiley when you need it?)

Just a word of caution here....

If yer gonna beat on it, use a brass drift and not something hard so you won't screw up the treads on the shaft!!!

Might be that I'm a mechanic, but my very first thought was "Acetylene".

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.
