Drive Clutch Adjustment Range Problem
In my model 100 I removed the old cluch from the tractor and built a new one creeper length. The problem im having is getting it adjusted as the manual states. If I set it to start releasing at the top of the pedal travel the release arm ends up hitting the steering box with the pedal half way down. This leaves me with no brakes. If I adjust it so that I have full pedal travel the release arm doesnt contact the throw out bearing until the pedal is over half way down. I replaced everything on the driveshaft except the main spring. The pressure plates were trued up in a lathe. I did grease where the bearing rides and the pilot bushing. I have checked the installation order of driveline components several times. The cluch does release so I can shift, but not in the correct position of pedal travel. The throwout bearing is installed with coller to the front of tractor. Thanks for any help.

Found the problem. I had added a washer between the rear pressure plate and the teaser spring, after removing that it was about 50% better. The other part of the problem was the throwout bearing. It was one I had received when ordering from the garden tractor pulling site. It is the same width of the original except the distance from the end of the collar to where the release arm contacts is about 1/8" longer. So this along with the washer I installed spaced the bearing back 1/4". That extra space in there alowed the pedel to move 3-4" before the release arm contacted the throwout bearing. I ended up reusing my old throwout bearing. The outer case can be removed so that I could clean it out with solvent and repack with wheel bearing grease. Its as good as new now and not made in China.

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.
