I think the problem with a bolt is that it will woller the hole in the shaft out, eventually causing the end of the shaft to break off.

My case-IH dealer had the correct one in stock for about $7. Why chance it with one from a hardware store? It's a very specific size a bolt will not fit tight in the shaft and ruin it over time.

This will happen.

This is the difference between the correct pin, and a bolt. The hard outer keeps it from wearing, the ductile inner keeps it from breaking/shearing under a "jerk" load, such as sudden hydro movement, sudden traction under wheel slip, and engine acceleration.

Team work boys!!! Everyone makes a good point!

Thanks everyone for your insights. Headed to Watermans Tractor (the IH Cub dealer) on Monday for the right pin,and a spare. Considering that this is a narrow frame, I will try to install the pin with the shaft on the tractor. Does the pin have to be pressed, or driven in, and should I coat it with Never sieze? Again Thanks

Best way to install pin; Drive, or press ? Coated with "Never sieze", or dry? I want to do it on the tractor.

I would be extremely hesitant to beat the pin in. ( as you may transmit shock into the crankshaft ). Pressing it in sounds better to me.

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.
