See you there later this week with my 104. First timer visitor. I'm only doing it for better access to painting the frame. Hope that's a good choice.


Sorry, too many paint fumes I guess.

The rear pulled easily and it was out within an hour. I can see why the speed lurch was soo bad; the cam plate is barely touching the damper springs and the guide pins are worn flat on one side and cutting a groove to the right to get farther away from the cam plate! The trunion bracket is worn on all corners and towards the front and rear of the tractor on the inside corners. I pulled the hydro unit off the rear end and gave it to Dad to weld up and mill back down to spec at one of the machine shops he does service for (wish I could weld; I'd learn to do this myself). Need to call the dealer tomorrow and order springs and pins and possibly the cam plate depending on price as there is noticable wear on the cam plate guide pin too.

The cork gasket should be straight forward and the rest of the hydro and rear looks fine, if not worn a little after 40+ years of hard use. Amazing how well these tractors hold up to abuse year after year.

I'll update after the trunion is milled right and the cork gasket is done. Also want to find some wavy washers to take up the slack behind the snap rings on the cam plate mounting bracket and trunion spindle.

If this goes well, the 100 splits next to get it's shifter replaced, then the 123, which may require a little more time due to some linkage issues.
What is the shaft coming out of the rear of the transmission with the hole pre-drilled in it for? Was there some kind of rear attachment for these?

No there wasn't but it really does look like there could have been!

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.
