Has anyone ever drilled out the 5/16 hole on the left front spindle and left front steering arm to take up slop... i'm thinking I might drill it to 3/8 and install a Bolt to take up the play... any thoughts????

It's supposed to have a roll pin, all the bolt will do is egg shape the hole. I would drill the hole just big enough to make it round again and then buy a roll pin that fits tight.

There are taper pins that you can use also from Mc master Carr.They are solid.
I have never used one but it is better than a bolt.

That will work but needs to be drilled with a tapered drill and reamer to make it tight.

You could also drill it out to 3/8" and use a 3/8" spiral pin (much better than a bolt).
OR, you could drill it to a metric size just big enough to get rid of the slop and use a metric spiral pin.

I know we don't like to reference to outside sites too much, but this guy here has a solution you can buy. Or, I suppose you could read over his page and make it yourself?
http://www.spaco.org/loose.htm I think I was linked to this guy from a post on here a few months back. |

Referencing the other site posted, here is some links to MSC you may find useful. Note that taper pins that are threaded are threaded on the big end for pulling the pin out of a blind hole. If you are going to secure it in place with a bolt, make sure you can drill and tap the pin first!
http://www.mscdirect.com/browse/tn/H...r&sortby=price http://www.mscdirect.com/browse/tn/F...term=taper+pin The more I think about this the more I need to go see how many we have that are loose, buggered, welded, have bolts, or are tied on with electric fence wire ![]() ![]()

I drilled and tapped a hole to except a set screw just below the spiral pin. Tightened it up, and still snug with no slop.
Plus when you have them sunk, dab a little paint on top and no one will ever know.

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.
