PTO Clutch
New here, and I just bought a CC 104 that I bought to mow the .25 acre yard, so not huge. I will also use it to plow snow once I get a blade. I first learned how to mow on a 104, so a little history with the 104.
When I bought it, the PTO had no ceramic piece and no belt from the engine to the deck. I saw the they also make a brass piece instead of the ceramic, so I rigged one up using a brass barbed pipe. When I went to disengage the PTO clutch, the the button on the PTO kept turning along with the pulley and ate my brass right up. Is that the way it is supposed to work? I have never seen one in working condition. I cannot imagine that the button would keep turning when the PTO is disengaged, otherwise the ceramic piece would wear out incredibly fast. I have a feeling, the PTO clutch is shot. What is the best way to fix it if it is in fact shot? I am some what mechanically inclined (change the head gasket on my car is about the biggest job I have ever done). Can I just buy a $50 PTO clutch rebuild kit on eBay and bet set? Or would I be better off buying a rebuilt PTO clutch for $175ish? Thanks.

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.
