OOPs, no pic. As far as the follower, if I can guess what the pic is showing, can be reshaped.

Chuck it in your drill, hold a 4 1/2" angle grinder to the follower and make it look correct.

You will ba amazed at the results.

Do I get a cookie for guessing correctly?

That mark is nothing to worry about. Every steering box I've had apart has looked like that. It is from the follower hitting the ends of the worm gear.

i just took mine apart and it looks the same. i think that big divot is part of teh manufacturing process. i have seen that same mark in other shafts. it looks like there was a swedge put into it for some reason.

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.
