Need steering box for my '63 mod 70

Postby k. hansen'49cub » Sat May 28, 2005 5:14 pm

Yep it's the one in my profile, I started her up for triming today it felt a little funny at first....sorta loose...then alot loose!! I guess it had a small crack in the aluminum housing that spilt it open!! I love this little mower,if any of you have ,or know of one,Please send me a message.
Do any other models cross over? Or does it have to be from a 1963 70?
Thank You.

70, 71, 72, 100 102,122,123 all use the same one. Anothet thing to consider is all the steering boxes except the original, are the same, but he shaft and the tube lengths are different. If you can't find the correct, use any you can get and use your shaft w/worm gear and outer tube.

Call Ray Weaver in Stevens, PA. Cell is 717-587-3727. Ray sells used Cub Cadet parts, but I think he is at the Rough & Tumble show in Kinsers, PA this weekend.

Unscrew the large plug in the bottom of the steering box, remove the lower bearings and race, remove the cam follower or the side plate with the cam follower in it, and the worm and shaft, along with the upper bearings and race, should come out the bottom of the box. The tube is a press fit into the steering box.
