The 94C is smooth and uses a 1-3/16” belt as apposed to the 40 series 7/8” belt. It did require a little cutting to clearance things but nothing too difficult.

I know there isn’t much interest in these things but it’s been an easy to work on and reliable side by side for me for quite a few years now.
That's neat, I've never seen one before but it looks suspiciously like the EZ Go offroad platform.

This modification looks great. I just picked up one of these too. Do you have any additional information/tips for modification to add this clutch set up?

Sorry, I don't get back to this forum very often. I actually just sold my Grizzly two weeks ago. I was sorry to see it go but I needed something that was better suited for plowing so I picked up a 2011 Ranger.

I pretty much explained the mods that were required. Notching the frame allows the clutch to be removed and the belt to be changed without removing the engine. Cutting a hole in the side shielding is required to clear the end of the clutch. I used a long straight edge to align the clutch sheaves. (actually an old chainsaw bar...lol). The secondary clutch was near the end of the shaft but the shaft still had enough meat to grab the end of shaft support bracket.

I think the only improvement with the clutch would be to go with heavier weights in the primary clutch to engage the drive at a lower RPM.

Feel free to email me at allyolds68@icloud.com if you have any other questions. I know these machines pretty well.

I also have a spare axle shaft for sale if anyone needs one. I broke an axle a couple years ago and had two shafts made as both sides were identical and were no longer available anywhere.

Heald Haulers and Pugs are almost identical. I think Cub Cadet bought out Heald Hauler to build these

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.
