1200 Clutch Part Issue(s)
Hello! I picked up a 1200 this weekend at an estate sale. It looked pretty rough, but cleaned up super! (see photo album) It is definitely a keeper. Now I have to eliminate one (or two) of my other Cub projects to get the 1200 back in order.
I took it apart on Sunday to go through the driveline and replace the engine mounts. I knew there were going to be some other issues, however, I was not really expecting the driver plate to be lunched/shattered. I have made the decision to go ahead and throw "some" money at the 1200 to do it right. I will be replacing a lot of the driveline and clutch components. My question is... Is there an aftermarket driver plate that would be superior to the OEM? I'd rather go ahead and put in an upgrade part, so that I will not have to replace it again in the near future. If the OEM is recommended, then that will be fine too. I will also be replacing the hub pilot bearing. Other change will probably involve installing a creeper that I have laying around somewhere in the garage. This will require a new drive shaft. I'd also like to beef up the spring, but it does not have to be "puller" strong. I guess the bottom line is that I would like some help with suggestions AND on laying out a parts list so that I can get everything ordered and installed. I do not have much experience with the manual trannys, as most of my Cubs have been hydros. BTW, this 1200 will not see much action once it is put back together. It is really too nice to get it dirty again! Fortunately, I have a 1450 that is not afraid of the dirt... TIA!!! Steve

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.
