just loosened the jam nut and tightened down the follower stud a bit and buttoned everything back up, worked for a few minutes but is still 1 1/2 to 2 turns loose, is there a worm gear or something inside that needs to be replaced?

Might be bad bearings, but you could try tightening the plug in the bottom. Is there axial play in the steering shaft? If so, tightening the plug will help. This is all described in detail in the service manual...
Oh, and if the follower stud is really worn, turning it in another turn isn't going to do anything. You could try turning it 90 degrees from its current position to see if it's still that loose. That might allow it to ride on an unworn part of the cam follower which would tighten it up. Most likely though, the follower is pretty worn out. I pull the column and see what's going on. Wait...when you say "1 1/2 to 2 turns loose" do you mean the steering wheel turns 1 1/2 to 2 turns before steering the wheels, or do you mean something else? |

yeah, when i turn the wheel, it has 1 1/2 to 2 turns before the wheels start to turn and the axel moves as well, i took the follower pin out and cleaned it up, put it back in with no progress, when you say bottom bolt do you mean the one that is slotted of the bottom of the box?

2 turns? That doesn't make any sense...it should only have 2 turns lock-to-lock. Can you steer at all? I wonder if there's anything left of the follower pin.
It's not a bolt, it's a big threaded plug. I'll say it again, it's time to grab the service manual and start reading. Either way, the column needs to come out and be disassembled. No amount of adjustment is going to fix it if it's really doing what you say it is. |

Tubby I think you got your terminology wrong. The mule drive it the bracket on the front of your tractor that has 2 pulleys and turns the PTO belt 90 degress so it can reach the deck.
But, glad you got your column working. Happy Cubbing, AJ

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.
