Default removing rock shaft from 149

Well, I wanted to remove the rock shaft from my parts 149 and put it on my running 149. How in the h...l do you get the roll pins out? I can't get a straight shot on them from the top. The bottom of the frame has some holes in it right at the pins but it is still not a straight shot. Anyone done this?

While I'm at it. I pulled the cover on my 149 to drain the fluid and to replace the cork gasket on the hydro pump. This is the first time I have changed the fluid on this one and when the cover came off I found that part of the rear housing was chipped out at one of the bolt holes (lower right bolt, you can see the sealant around the hole). The PO had filled it with silicone caulking. It never did leak as the very outside edge is still intact. I am putting a sleeve hitch on it from the parts tractor, now it looks like I will be putting the rearend from the parts tractor in also. I will be keeping the pump from the running one, it is very strong.

my 128 and 129 had/have cotter pins so it was/is a none issue. the only thing i could suggest is pull the engine and then swing the rock shaft down, towards the steering column, and you would then have a straight shot.

There should be spirol pins in the rockshaft, not cotter pins. I'm surprised you haven't sheared any off.

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.
