Thanks guys!







This weekend I got the 1200 home (Thanks Joe!)...and started working on it.


Replaced the clutch disc, got the solid ISO mounts installed, and dropped the 16 HP in. Decided to wait and try the stock clutch spring for now.




Here's some current pictures, may try to fire her up later this evening.

I would strongly suggest adding the crossbrace between the rails; it is probably even more important on a gear drive because if the engine becomes misaligned, that very expensive clutch driver will get torn up in a hurry.

Might just do that when/if I take it back apart to replace the clutch spring. I used a regular NF-WF 3 pin driver...so there wouldn't be a terrible loss.

A NF clutch driver may not work...the engine is going to move around a bit in the mounts (even after the crossbrace is installed), and the correct clutch driver is flexible and has a spherical ball bushing to account for this. The NF one does not, so it may bind, wear out the pilot bushing prematurely, or break the driver itself or the clutch disc.

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.
