Model and year?

Tractor Rod

Well-known member
Can somebody please tell me by looking at these two attachments the model and year :help: of this cub cadet? I’m trying to order a manual so I can put in a new clutch. Thank you in advance.

That's an "Original", it was made from 1961 to 1963. The serial number is stamped on the right side of the gear reduction housing. The actual production date can be narrowed down with the serial number.

Gonna need a serial number.
At least the model number. If nothing else identify the horsepower of the Kohler engine. That will give you the first two digits of the model number.

Parts diagrams are on line. The parts for early Cub Cadets are pretty much the same for the one's with the manual transmission.

Stuck clutch. Guessing, broken teaser spring, or throw out bearing, or worn out throw out lever, or worn out throw out lever parts.
If you need a new drive shaft, make one from a 3/8" rod from the hardware store. Last time I checked the drive shaft was $122- from IH dealership
 
The Original clutch set up is different than the narrow frames that followed it, it will need to be specific for an Original.
