Default Drive Plate Removal Question
Don't know if this belongs in the engine section as it's a Cub Cadet part, not a Kohler part - moderator please move if I'm in the wrong place.

Pulled the donor engine out of my 122 and the drive plate is somewhat warped in a couple of places. Looks to me like someone put a pry bar on it.

I've got a straight drive plate, question is - how to I get the old drive plate off? I removed the 4 bolts holding it to the engine.

Thanks!
Bill

Bill you'll have to pull on it to get it out. It should come out but not fall off.

A few gentle taps with a hammer should jar it loose. Mine have come off pretty easily.

Good news! I put a small pry bar on the drive plate and gave a light push and tapped the drive plate with a small ball peen hammer and the drive plate eased off.

Thanks everyone!!!!!

Bill

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.
