Default #1 tiller main drive sprocket
I bought a #1 tiller and everything turned freely but the tines would spin and they wouldn't turn the drive pulley. When I tore it apart i found that both roll pins on the drive sprocket had sheared off and the sprocket was spinning on the main drive shaft. Has anyone had this problem and is there a fix for it? The only reason I ask is because I am thinking of putting a grade 5 1/4-20 bolt in the shaft because I dont want to have to tear this thing down again because as sugarmaker said in his rebuild "this is not for the faint of heart"!! Its a rusty pain in my #$@!!!

Get a new spirol pin. It will be fine. Never seen or heard of them breaking inside a tiller. They are very hard. You will have to buy them by what it is, book says 3/16" X 1 1/4". NLA By part number. They aren't hard to find. Make sure you get a spirol pin and not a spring pin, there is a BIG difference. You can get them from McMaster Carr. Here is the link. They are $7.69 for a pack of 25. Breaking strength in pounds...... 3,100#. They are down the page under "coiled spring pins".


BTW!

Why would you think that? Not like tiller design has changed.

Glad you got it going!

X2 it probably works a ton better than anything new on the lot.

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.
