Default Clutch Shield Question
Most of the narrow frames I have purchased were missing the clutch shield (cover) and I have been picking up ones to replace them. I notice there are at least two versions; solid and more of a screen (small holes in it), and at least two widths..... Looking at Partstree it shows the same part number for all I looked at (all a second revision) and appears to be the screen version. Some manuals appear to show a solid one on the earlier ones (i.e. 70/100) so would make sense the revision was the one with holes in it.

Does anyone know what models (or years/serial #'s) would be the solid vs. the "screen" type and was the width intended to be different? Inquiring mind wondering why they made the change, any thoughts there?

Been wondering and thought someone here would know.

Thanks,

my 1966 122 has the screen type, so I guess some time in 66 was the change over...

Not saying there is anything factual about this but I always kinda thought that the gear drive tractors had the solid shield and the hydros had the perforated one.

Unless you have one that you have had since new or you find that NOS one that I've heard tell of, how do you know that any tractor you have has the original/correct shield?

About the different widths of covers... I didn't know there were. With the exception of the "cut away" version, to accommodate the hydraulic lift belt. Keep in mind that I have never been on a quest to discover differences in clutch shields.

Oddly enough, the parts manuals call it a "clutch shield" even on a hydro tractor.

The Clutches had a solid one, the Hydro's had the ones with the holes in it to keep the Hydro cooler I believe.

Well, that makes sense to me! Partstree shows the same part number on gear and hydro (124 & 125 I looked at). I guess at some point they realized the screen would work for both for replacement??

Not much difference in the width, the solid ones I have are 3 3/4" and the screens are 4".

I am not really on a quest , just curious and if I am replacing one, kind of want it correct if possible.

Thanks for the replies,

I know the owner of an Case IH dealer, who's worked there for 50+ years.He told me IH dealers would change out the solid ones for the vented ones when they came in for service for better ventilation.
Threy threw the solid ones in the scrap pile with all the solid panels that were replaced by headlights ones

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.
