you will need to shorten the drive shaft to work with the creeper. my advice would be to remove the engine and disassemble the clutch then roll the rear end out of the tractor with the drive shaft still attached. once its out you can install the creeper to the rear end and shorten the drive shaft and re install the same way it came apart. the drive shaft should have an extra unused hole in it in the middle and you can cut the shaft about a 1/4" behind that hole and it will then be the correct length for the creeper.

you can contact member jeffinpa or yosemite sam to buy a new drive shaft if your not comfortable cutting yours, both have very reasonable prices.

You will still need to pull the engine and disassemble the clutch and remove the rear end, if you don't you'll wish you did trust me. Its almost impossible to install a creeper gear in a narrow frame without having the rear end out of the tractor.

I will post pictures when I get home this weekend. I will take the good advice on removing transmission when I start the upgrade. Could be best time for paint. Thanks Phil

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.
