Default Washers found on drive shaft clutch assembly.
I'm new, so hopefully I am posting in the right location.

I'm not a professional collector like most of you I have to put my Cub 104 to work here in Michigan plowing snow off the sidewalk. Too cold outside to install it correctly and have to tear it apart again.

Rebuilding the drive shaft clutch. I did go on line and get the drawing on how to assemble it but on my clutch I found two washers that are not showed on the drawing? They have yellow paint so I believe they are original. Again, the drawing I have does not show these washer and I will have to compress the springs again to get the last coil pin in place that holds the pressure plates and clutch pad together. Is this correct?

This would mean there is always pressure holding the pressure plates together to the clutch pad and that the clutch peddle is a system to release that pressure to disengage the engine to allow shifting.

First off welcome to OCC. What tractor are you referring to with the clutch situation? It sounds to me like the clutch spring was getting weak and someone added a couple washers to compress the spring more to keep it from slipping.

I moved your post to the proper area. Here is a link for the service manual for the 104. http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ead.php?t=4642

Yes, that is all correct. It's also how ALL clutches work.

Welcome to the forum.

I believe the washers belong there to more evenly distribute the pressure from the spirol pin against the spring base coil. Everyone I have ever disassembled have had a spring on them.

Its a Cub 104. I am told they were built for 3 years only between 1966 and 1969. The person did not know how many was built. Serial number is 259177.

Thank you all for your replies. My research and experience has taught me to be cautious. It still bothers me the parts drawing does not show it, must be some models had the washers and some didn't? The yellow paint still tells me original equipment.

Do you know if the original colored paint is still available? As I reassembly I would like to put it back correctly.

The 104 I am restoring now, just took the big stuff to the sandblaster yesterday, had the washers on the spring as well.

They are in the parts lookup, just not pictured is all, 3rd line down
Part #736-0156 Washer, 21/32 x 1 x 11 Ga. 2 required.

Go to the parts lookup, type in that number, I'd venture to say nearly all the GD Cubs used them on their drive shaft springs.

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.
