When the lever is forward you should have only enough space between the button and the PTO so it doesn’t rub. That will give you maximum throw to disengage when you pull the lever back.

Well, I drove it around today. It ran well, it stopped fairly well and the steering is light years better than before. I'm going to put it the fenders on tomorrow and see how this works with the deck under it.

Fun stuff. The replacement engine seems to run fine now.

I'll have to take a picture. MAN are those LED headlights bright!

Good to see you are finally getting some pleasure cutting the grass, like I did with mine.

Now about those headlights......

It's got a twin brother! Nice cub Lew!

This was my first cub (I bought it after my 2nd disposable Big Box store mower). It's been 10 yrs now.

Headlights...Did I mention how bright those bad boys are?


Engine swap turned out to be :


Engine swap
Clean parts

Steering box rebuild
Clean parts

New wiring harness
Clean parts
New tie rod, drag link ends,
Clean parts
New points/condenser/timing
Swap PTO (gauges came today)
Fix brakes (and clean parts)


and...oh yes! Clean parts (and paint)


This old thing has about 5 coats of paint on it (no 2 alike) but it's nice to have it running again.

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.
