Default PTO Clutch rod assembly

Help! I am in the middle of a 122 restoration and the tractor came through with out the PTO linkage, I thought I saw a posting on the site with measurements but now I can't seem to locate the post. Could anyone point me in the right direction please?

First, welcome to OCC!!

Second, It's nice to have another Vermonter aboard, I think there are 3 of us now. Where in the state are you?

Third, The PTO rod you ask about is 3 seperate pieces. It is made from 2 pieces of 1/4 inch rod each threaded on one end. The two threaded ends are joined together by a turn-buckle. I measured my 124 for you. The engage handle to turn-buckle is 12 inches not counting the 1in bend that goes thru the handle. The PTO arm to the turn-buckle is 13 1/4 inches not counting the 1in bend going thru the PTO arm. The turnbuckle is used to adjust length for proper operation and compensate for wear. The turn-buckle will end up just at the backside of the S/G as seen in the pictures. You can also make this set up out of threaded rod so you don't have to worry about cutting threads in the round stock.
I hope this is what you ment by linkage.

If you plan on making that, I hope you've got a left-hand thread tap and die. One side of that is LH threads.

If someone can figure out the correct length, I can see if I have any of these in my NF parts...

Default Many thanks!

Thanks for the info, I'm in Georgia, Vt., just across the lake from you! This is my first cub and I definatly have the yellow fever now :-)) I hope to have the 122 up and running again by spring, I pretty much have just the engine and new tires left to complete and I can put it to work in the garden.

Matt,
It just so happens I do have a left hand thread die, I'm always tinkering on something and had to pick one up a few years ago. ( of course I do not remember what for now ) As I recall I purchased it from McMaster - Carr, its a great resource for odd machine parts and tools.

That's good. I just wanted to make sure you knew that so you didn't make it and then wonder why the turnbuckle didn't do anything...

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.
