Check the front coupler while you are at it as well.
Exactly! I will do that before it goes back together. This 123 was not taken care of before I got it. What you're seeing is 40+ years of neglect.

Which coupler are you speaking of?? The other end of the drive shaft goes into the fitting on the output of the engine. At that end, the dowel pin is sheared off on one side.... I am going to get a new dowel to put it all back together.

Is that a nut with a nylon center?

The coupler that the dowel pin through the driveshaft slips into.
I have seen them worn nearly 1/2 the way around through the coupling

Hmmmmm.... maybe mine is worn, and not a "detent" like I thought it was?

Just realized: no cooling fan on that drive shaft.... I guess I need to order that, eventually.

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.
