Maybe fill it with Kero or Diesel fuel and then go at it with a paint brush? Drain it out, filter the fluid and repeat until it's clean.

I was thinkin bout putting it in my parts washer but wasn't sure if the diesel would eat away at the input shaft seal or not. And use the sprayer to wash it out I wouldn't let it soak as none of the stuff is stuck on I can wipe it with my finger but its.really chunky

that's what I would do. I don't think seals constantly exposed to oil would be adversely affected by another petroleum product. What does the parts washer use as a fluid?

What kind of stuff is it? It looks like metal filings to me, but I can't tell fom the picture. Is it grainy or more like mud?

I would think that diesel would be OK to use to clean it out and not hurt the seals. If you had a recirculating parts washer going into the rear end, then a filter screen across a bucket so that the fluid would flow back into the bucket, and pouring it back into the washer might be handy.

I'd try to jack up the rear, wash a lot, then turn the gears a little, wash a lot, and keep turning and washing til it is clean.

Good luck!

It's like a dirty muddy rust looking gunk. Not real thick just flakey. It has a bunch of it on the bottom of the shifter plate so what I see in there might have fell off while I was wrenching. The rear has both axle tubes off and is seperate from the tractor so if I hang it by my cherry picker over top my washer I think.it'd be ok. The pump for the sprayer in the washer has its own filter I'm just worried about getting this junk down into important and expensive parts

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.
