Default Model 71 42" Deck Rebuild

I have a 42" mower deck ('63-'68 deck w/cast ends). Went to mow tonight and realized that I now have to rebuild the RH spindle. Any ideas on buying a complete spindle rebuild kit for all three spindles? I went to PartsTree and got the individ. part #'s, but would like to buy everything together if possible. Any help as to where to get a kit would be appreciated. I checked several sites and the parts are pretty expensive.

TMK, They do not make a kit. Yes, bearings can be expensive. Best bet, a bearing company. Or, buy an already rebuilt set. I have a set of those spindles that I was planning to rebuild and sell. PM me if interested and I will get you a price.

I rebuilt my 42" cast end deck a few years ago. I am almost positive that the bearings and races are the exact same parts as the front outer wheel bearings for a 2wd Chevy S-10. They will probably be cheaper from an auto parts store. The only place I could find the seals was from the Cub dealer. They were around $8-10 each. None of the parts stores or even Motion Industries could find a seal that was the right size and style.

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.
