There is only one type of Kevlar disc to my knowledge. You should be able to slip it a good deal but without the extended release arm clutch control is more difficult.

I've never had a issue with bone stock clutch in good shape even beating on it

It is easy to spin tires-put the tractor to work.

Put a set of ag tires on, add 100 to 150 pounds and them hook a moldboard plow on it. Them go plow some Northwest Ohio soil. This soil will make a tractor that can pull a 5 bottom plow be lucky to pull a 4 bottom plow.

You will have clutch slipage with a stock spring. I'm using a spring from a New Holland/AGCO cultivator. It is a 500 pound rated spring. Stock spring is 200 to 250 pounds. You will have to use a spacer between the driveshaft and inside the spring. Part number for spring is PECP1511A1 (New Holland) and EP1511 (AGCO) . Because of the spring length the spring has to be cut into 2 pieces....you get 2 springs out of it.

Cub Cadet Classics sell a blue spring that has the same tension as my cultivator spring set up. My clutch set up has been my hop up 100 for 4 years.

I aslo use a kevlar clutch disc because the price and it has less slippage.

I aslo replace all the pins and bushing in the clutch driver. I will use a split collar instead of a pin to hols the main spring in place. THe hole in the driveshaft makes a weak spot in the driveshaft.

My clutch set up may be overkill.....I prefer to build it once and not be afraid to push the limits.

My Uncle Dick topic has a clutch rebuild section in it.

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.
