The oem clutch disk measures about .200" and I'm thinking .250 when I make them. I'll have to move that rear pin back .100 for that which isnt much at all and should be easy to adjust for with the adjuster.

The other issue is the throwout bearing, I will not pay $60 for one. I may repurpose a similar sized one even if I need to make an adapter. The inner race (?) sticks out on the cub cadet one but not sure what that does except maybe keep the spring centered in which case I can do that with a bushing...

Think you're worrying too much about shaft material strength. Just get a piece of cold rolled at the metal shop. That's all we ever used in the pulling tractors and were twisting it waaaaay faster and harder than you'll be. The old stock shafts weren't anything special... lasted decades.

Very cool, but already ordered the 1144, it was like $20... hopefully I dont screw it up! I'm famous for blowing a brain fart and mis-measuring sometimes...

Cub Cadet Specialties has an aftermarket throw-out listed for $28. Look hard enough you can probably find it from a supplier for about $15.

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.
