149 Type B front PTO
Guys, I was just wondering about my PTO on my 149. I have a Type B with brake. What would happen if I converted it back to a regular Type B? It looks like the only real difference is that mine has a brake disk and brake shoe. The regular Type B just uses a thrust button and wear button to do the stopping. Im just curious. Thanks, Mark

The PTO arm is different on the brake style BTDT. Got any pics of your 149?

Mark, when i bought my 108, it had a type A pto(thrust button) and a type B brake shoe and rockshaft on it. Like Lew says, there are 2 different rockshafts for the 2 pto styles. The difference between the 2 rockshafts is the hole where the wear button would go on a type A is not flush with the shaft on a type B rockshaft. It's recessed slightly. I purchased a type A rockshaft, but i couldn't get my old rockshaft out, the sleeve on one side of the rockshaft would not budge. I starting damaging the shaft, i didn't want to mow with a push mower, so i put a couple of washers behind a wear button and used the rockshaft i had. It worked fine, I used it for most of last season to mow. I don't recommend you do it, just relaying my experience. The problem with that set up would be if you didn't keep an eye on the wear button on the rockshaft, and it wore down a lot, there's potential for the rockshaft arm to make direct contact with the pto sooner than if you had the proper rockshaft. It was much safer than using a brake shoe to stop a type A PTO, i was pretty PO'd when i discovered that. I rebuilt my PTO with the brake disc a couple of months ago, and i replaced the wear button on the rockshaft with a brake shoe, so my PTO is a legit type B again. Only got to use it once so far, seems to work fine. Just my

I did the same thing to my 169. I had the older style on the 149 and prefer it much better. I just got a different rockshaft from Chris at Cub Classics and replaced the wear and thrust buttons and it has been fine ever since.
 2 different style rockshafts. One on the left had the brake.

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.
