Good idea on the replacement, that'll get you back in business faster. A PTO rebuild isn't hard, but when time is of the essence, it's nice to have something you already know is going to work. Good luck!

Can't get any better than that. You may want to rebuild the old one, when you have a spare sitting on the shelf you will never need it.

I thought you were referring to a PTO rebuild, cuz that's easy.

Thanks again Dave.

So I almost destroyed that beautifully rebuilt PTO again. Am I not understanding the adjustment directions in the manual? Push the lever forward, adjust until the brass button is 1/64th away from the PTO thrust button in "engaged" position.

I did that again and it immediately jammed up, marring the inside of that triangle spring just like the old one because it was rubbing on the output shaft. I did check it before starting it up and it seemed to engage disengage fine but I guess things work differently at 3600rpm. Pulled it to check, the bearing is definitely flush with the shaft and so was the previous bearing. Adjusted it like cadzag72 mentioned, adjusting the disengagement by slowly bringing it in until it frees up. Worked like a charm and went ahead and threw snow for 2 hours. I'm pretty sure this is how the previous owner adjusted it as well and how I ran it the past year cutting grass until a month ago when I thought "hey let me adjust this thing to manual spec" and destroyed the PTO triangle spring thing.

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.
