While my S/G is dying, I noticed that my creeper is pretty noisy. It has plenty of fluid in it, but it is pretty loud while running. It has the typical gear type of noise. Do these creepers make noise, or is mine messed up?
Thanks,

Any gear drive I've had with a creeper didn't have any noise coming from the creeper. Most creepers burp or leak out the oil anyway.
![]() Might be time to make sure its disengaging all the way and the shifting fork's not bent or broken.

It makes the noise whether in high or low. I put HY Tran in it when I put it in and it is burping out some fluid.

90 weight gear lube would be way too heavy for the creeper drive. The service manual states that either HyTran or 30 weight engine oil is recommended. I put 30 weight in all my creepers and they work just fine. But, mine do the occasional burp also.

Well, it doesn't make any noise when the clutch is engaged and is out of gear, only when it's moving.
Another guy thought it might be the bearing on the pinion shaft. Is this a pain to replace? I had the transmission open to clean it and put in new brake shoes. I filled it with Hy Tran.

Does it make the noise in all four gears? What kind of noise, a cluck, a grind or whine noise? Some of the gears get worn and you'll have a whine while running it. My 86 I used to have had the gear whine. Could also be a bearing going in the pinion shaft. Has to be something gear or pinion related since it only happens when in gear. Good luck and keep us posted.

It makes the noise in all gears and really doesn't change pitch no matter what gear it's in. It's more like a whine noise.

It's the bearings. Been there, done that :-)

I take it that the lower bearings are the problem, since it does not make any noise with the clutch disengaged and the tractor is out of gear.
Are they a real pain to replace? I read that you have to do shims and preloads on these rear ends. I know nothing about that part of it.

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.
