Default Tell me it isn't the clutch
Because the one time I worked on my clutch I swore I'd never do it again. I'm not that good of a mechanic and it was a PIA.

My 108 stopped moving. I was just able to coax it into the garage by holding the clutch pedal at a certain, partially depressed spot. Snow is heavy, I lost my job and have literally NO money for parts and I have no heated space to work on it. So like I said...


...tell me it isn't the clutch. Unless whatever it is is even worse than the clutch...

From here it doesn't look like the clutch.

But, then again, you gave no usable information, no pictures.....

I don't know what more I can say. I was plowing, and it stopped moving. The only way I could budge it back into the garage was by nursing/feathering the clutch pedal at a partially depressed spot and it creeped slowly into the garage, just barely.

I've told you everything I know.

I'd pull the tunnel cover off and check the spiral pins where the driveshaft goes into the rearend.

Were you able to coax it into slow motion like I did?

I can't speak to his experience but I can tell you that when you push the clutch down it pushes the driveshaft back against the rearend and that extra bit of friction could be why it moved when you pushed the clutch down a bit. I'd go pull the cover and start the tractor and try to move the tractor, keep a good eye on the shaft going into the trans to see if its spinning, its usually the rear most pin that breaks first and if you replace one you better replace both.

I'm willing to bet it is the rear most Spiro pin also! Good luck with it

I'm a bit confused (not uncommon). But the shaft spins even when its in neutral
so I'm not sure what I'm looking for when its in gear

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.
