Default 100 clutch question
I think I might have to tear down tractor and fix clutch.

I can stop the tractor, and drive shaft doesn't spin while in gear.
If I shift to next gear quickly it will go right in.
If hold clutch and drop tractor into neutral drive shaft spins up and I have shut it down to get it in gear without grinding.

Rebuild time?
is it a hard job and what will it cost? I've looked a few videos on rebuilding clutch and seems not bad if you know what you are doing which I don't but I ain't skeered. lol.

Actually, I see that all three of my disc springs are on. Wonder if I removed those if it would work? It seems like they are catching and not allowing the discs to separate.

I don't use the springs when I rebuild a clutch for the same reason you stated.

Hopefully the springs are on the outside of the clutch disc , which if they are, simply take them off.
If they are behind the clutch disc next to the engine, use a 1.5” thin cut off wheel and a Dremel tool, and CAREFULLY cut diagonal across the two coils of the spring, try not to cut the clutch plate pin, then pull out the cut pieces with needle nose pliers.

And yes, those disc springs need to go! They will cause the disc to not release fully, causing the clutch/drive shaft to spin even with the clutch pushed in.

Hope this helps

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.
