Default Remove 105 tower?
Can anyone give me a summary on how to remove the tower from my 105? I have the choke and throttle cables removed as well as the steering wheel and fiberglass dash. I removed the 4 bolts from the side of the frame holding down the tower but it is still mounted pretty solid.

Do you mean the bolts in the front of the tower that appear to mount the shifter shaft? I have not removed these. I am actually just trying to remove that shaft to replace it and assumed that the tower needed to come off. Could you let me know if that is not the case.

No I was talking about the set screw that holds the silver handle on the shaft.

There are 4 bolts holding it the whole control lever assembly to the frame, remove those and it should come off.

Yes those 4 small pan head screws under the key area need to come out. There may be some pictures on here when I did the 147R that show this too.
Thread "Added more IH equipment" page 7, post 67, has a few shots.
Good luck with the repairs.
Regards,
Chris

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.
