I am working on my hydro pump. Got the gunk off and now I am focused on getting it nice and clean. I want to get the relief valves rebuilt since I understand that is a very common problem. They are in there really tight. Any suggestions on how to get them out? I don't want to damage the pump, so I'm not sure what I can get away with doing.
Has anyone taken advantage of this service on ebay?

Thanks,

To remove the relief valves use a socket or a box end wrench, if they are really tight use a hammer and TAP the end of the wrench they should break loose.
That E-bay seller is the service I used to rebuild 4 of my valves, I was well pleased with the service.

I would get it running again and check if they are leaking. No need to spend the money if they are ok.

Hmmm, I don't know why but maybe you have to have an account with them? I will remove it to eliminate the confusion. Thanks. Regardless, I was pretty happy to get the engine running.

I am finding plenty of pieces that need to be replaced, I am assuming these are pretty normal wear items.

I dug into the steering column today. I don't know what they normally look like, but this was really stiff. All of the ball bearings were there, but they come out of the race pretty easy. The cam follower has a couple of spots that are a bit flat. This looks like a great buy to clean things up a bit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cub-Cadet-1...-/322240084280. Any recommendations on this segment of the rebuild?

Looks like a good deal. Probably need to get a new seal for the box, clean it all up and reassemble with lots of grease.

- Glad you said that, the seal was totally shot and forgot to add it to my "purchase" list.

I am doing spray can primer (for convenience), and will use Van Sickle enamel tractor paint for top coat. Hope that will work out.

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.
