Default Broke brake
I know someone has done this before, and I looked all over for a fix in the archives and can't find one. Here's the question: "How do I fix this"? The frame I'm working on fell off the table (somehow) and landed on the brake pedal. The clutch/brake lever assembly broke off it's hub. I had removed the roll pin weeks ago hoping to take this all apart, due to rust buildup. I can't get the hub to move. Tried everything. Can I weld this back together?

I don't see why you couldn't weld it....probably going to need heat to remove the hub from the shaft.

An oxyacetylene torch would be best for heating it up, altho I did have success with a propane torch heating a three point hitch so I could remove the shaft that went thru it ..it only took half an hour of heating in that case..

isn't #11 cast iron, if so you will want to preheat it and use a nickel welding rod.

Thanks for the info Hillbilly. I tried heating it up with a small ox/prpn torch I use for smaller stuff, but no luck.

What model tractor is this? I can look on one of my junk frames and see if one of them has one that I could sell to you.

Heat it up red hot with a cutting torch, If it wont come let it cool then cut it off, if your good use the torch if not score it deep with a grinder and wack it with the hammer. The cast parts on a cub are cast steel Ive cut them with a torch and they blow right away, If they were iron they would only puddle.
Even a good methelated accetylene or mapp torch should heat that enough so it will almost slide off with a couple taps from the hammer!

It's a model 86 Matt. I've heated the collar, and the rod it's on separately and it moved maybe 1/16". I'm damaging the edges the more I hit it.

I agree, you didn't get that hot enough. You have to get it glowing red-hot.

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.
