Sounds like an over the winter project...

I'm just trying to learn and this seems a good place to do that.

My next question is what part # am I going to need? There are a number of them on eBay with PN 47 010 06 , but some are for K241AS and some are off of a Wheel Horse, etc. I just want to make sure I get the correct part.

I'm pretty sure its the same camshaft for the k241, k301, and i think k321. Should look like this

That looks like it. I had to put a new cam in the k301 in my 123 for the same reason you need one now. It was a non-running basket case when I got it. It is almost 20 years now, but my memory of it is that everything has to come out of the crankcase to get to it. Might as well check & replace anything that is worn like worn piston/connecting rod/crankshaft etc while you are in there. When I did mine, it needed a new oversized piston, re-bored, bearings and a new (used) crankshaft.

I don't remember it being a difficult job, but it did require a generous application of dollars for parts and machining. On the plus side, it hasn't needed anything internal since then.

Yup, almost everything needs to come out to get to it, other than the governor.

Jim, You don't need to go the route of a complete rebuild but its probably a pretty good idea to check over all the measurements and specs, especially if you don't actually know the condition of the engine. I mean everything could be really nice and just require a set of new rings, or it could be worn way out of round and need a rebore. Better safe than sorry imo.

Dave, thanks for that input. I figured that I'd be having to do that. Dang. Good advice though on fixing up any other problems as long as I'm in there. For sure it'll be a "winter project!"

And a thank you too, CC107, for great response and advice, which I surely need! I'll take it slow and (hopefully) steady in the next couple of months. First off is to get a new gear/ACR!

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.
