Angry Clutch replacement on a 1200
trying to replace clutch and drive plate. following instructions in service manual all thats needed is to remove flex coupling, hanger assembly and pivot pin and the clutch shaft should be able to be removed.

i still don't have enough slack in shaft to slide to the side to remove.

my question is do i have to loosen or remove engine bolts to get the slack I need?

From my experiences I always remove the engine bolts and slide engine forward a little and driveshaft will come out so much easier.

loosened engine block bolts and the got the clutch shaft out by removing the drive shaft coupling roll pin and sliding forward. Once removed I noticed the Hub Assembly pilot worn out. so now I will replace the hub assy., ball bushing, clutch plate, drive plate and teaser spring....

Good thing you caught the worn out pilot. That will make for a nice new tight drive shaft set up once you get it all done.

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.
