Default drive shafts


Hello, I need some help, I need to replace the drive shaft on my 108 and I've been looking on e-bay and I see one that will fit a 73, a 107, or a 127 and while I think they are all narrow frame tractors I didn't know if there was a difference in the length between the engine and rearend on wide frame or narrow frame tractors, If this won't work could someone tell me what ones will fit, I need to remove the creeper drive is why I need the longer shaft. Thanks, zekepiks

If you have a drill press, you can make a new driveshaft yourself. They are just a piece of 5/8" cold-rolled steel. I'd be a bit wary of buying used driveshafts...they wear out. You'll need one from an 86, 108, or 128.

If you make your own, be a bit careful with the measurements in the link Carolina Cubber posted...they are not quite accurate.

To be more specific, the roll pin holes for the two pressure plates were probably 40-50 thou too close in my opinion...when I built the clutch for my 582 with those numbers, I had difficulty assembling it because of this. It isn't a problem if you have the pressure plates turned because they will be thinner, but I installed a set that I hadn't turned and had some trouble. The next driveshaft I made, I added some to the distance between those two holes, and it worked fine.

Yeah, if it were mine I would make my own or get one from Brian Miller, and if you don't have access to a lathe send him your plates and have him true them up. For about $30.00 plus shipping, you can have all the work done that you need. Changing the disk is your option, I think a kit is about $50.00.

If you buy a used one on epay, it's still just an old used clutch and shaft and you're most likely going to have to do or have all this work done anyway.

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.
