Default PTO release button/bearing
I mentioned a week ago or so that I have a full cage ball thrust bearing in my 129 as a PTO clutch release bearing. Several of you expressed interest in seeing some pics and so forth. [IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]

I realize the pics are a little unclear. The bearing OD is 13/16" or .8125". ID is 1/4" or .250". the thickness is 5/16" or .3125". I didn't do it, but I would think that an Amazon search would come up with such a bearing for not too much money. It is the same type of bearing used on the "Steering Upgrades" on the Ross steering gears that use a "Nice 605" bearing only it is smaller.

Since I didn't do the conversion, I'm not really sure how the little pin that the bearing rides on is held in place in the center of the clutch. All I know is that it works great. Every time I grease the machine, I undo the clutch linkage, remove the bearing, and add a touch of grease into the balls. Any questions please ask.

P.S. Don't look at the paint (or lack thereof) or the wiring to the lights. I have all the wiring supplies to completely redo the wiring harness and someday (when I get really ambitious) The thing is going to get stripped down to every individual piece and it's going to get painted.

I am confused.
Do wide frame PTO's have a center button with a stud sticking out?
I have only dealt with NF,s which have a convex head center button on the PTO.

That is a custom made button to hold the bearing.

Offtime,
Are there any numbers on the bearing?

No number legible on the bearing. If I can find some time, I might can try to research the number and let you know. I think I have some resources.

Just come on up here and take a good look at it. I'm only about 6 - 7 hours drive from Pensacola. You could take a look at the muffler at the same time. Lol.

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.
