Howdy Folks,
I’ve been lurking for a while, lots of good folks here and great info!
Picked up a sweet little 53 Cub for my wife this past winter. It was restored maybe 20 years ago? Anyways, looked good and runs like a sewing machine! Gas tank was super rusty so had it flushed and sealed, and then a friend of mine re-paint it. We split the front off last weekend to replace radiator hoses and front crankshaft seal, which were all leaking a little. I made a puller according to designs posted here. But I used half inch plate and all thread vs three quarters because it’s what I had around. Wow, it was probably barely strong enough! That pulley didn’t come off easy! I sure hope it goes back on a little easier…. I’ll post when it’s all back together. Thanks to everyone and happy to be part of the Cub family!
PS, can’t figure out how to attach pictures

Re: Newbie
This is the easiest way I've seen for reinstalling the front pulley:

Re: Newbie
Hi PW,
Just so you know you can now access the repair and parts manuals as PDF files. Others can explain easy way to get to em. I just click till I get there but explaining it is like me explaining dirt back roads to that sweet fishing hole, turn when you see the black bull on the hill. LOL
