Thanks for posting this video, I've just completed the rebuild and installation of the PTO clutch on my 147 and it went perfectly thanks to your instructions.
one of the best video on this topic so far. only one comment, he is measuring the gap on one spring and adjusting on the adjacent. measure each spring and adjust that one just a little before moving to the other. gradually adjust until they are all to spec.
Gotta love these good ol' made in the USA cub tractors! Yep, even their 1/8 set screws were made with high quality where by cub cadet even used them on their pto clutch. This junk that's being imported from places like china is lucky to even have grade 2 fasteners on them let alone grade 5 and 8 like on these old cubs. Me and my dad started 25 years ago with a cub 128. Made a set of v-gripper chains for it and man you can't stop that thing! We were so impressed that we now own 8 cubs including the harder to get cub 124 that has granny gear which makes it REALLY NICE for tilling....but anyways thanks for the video! My clutch won't disengage even after adjusting the linkage rod and so watching your video I can see where I am probably having the trouble
Guess What dude; my 124 does NOT have a front pto clutch, I'll have to start from scratch either pieceing one from scratch / OR / find a used one that is enough left ofit to rebuild (hopefully)
I Too want to thank you for taking the time to post these very informative video's . In the old days, I love to work on the muscle cars of the 60's and 70's.. But I think I have found a IH CC-169.. So I'm taking in all the knowledge that I can.. Thank You and Please have a great day..
I’ve never done this before but I use never zee on bolts and set screws for sure, not any garden tractor in West Texas, it’s all bigger tractor but enjoy learning even at 72 retired diesel mechanic
Your demonstration of rebuilding the manual PTO clutch was very good , except the anti chatter springs you didn't install. Yes the clutch will work fine until the fingers on the fiber disc wear down from rocking back and forth without the springs to hold them snugly in place ,and eventually the fingers will break off one by one .
Not that I know of??? I have a1968 Model 72 and My father &I spent many weekends rebuilding that darn Clutch !!! -It would be great to have an electric PTOclutch in that Dinosaur of a Tractor but how would It be Mounted /Activated??!!

I wanted to thank you for putting this detailed video up on you tube. It was very helpful as I too needed to rebuild my PTO on a 127.
+Ryan Sullivan is there anything else you want me to post?

id like to see his video on how he takes that bearing off and replaces it. That is part of many replacement kits.

great detailed post which eventually i'll have to do this with my 107 cub
The set screws probably seize because the wd-40 evaporates
Use something different like legit oil and not penetrating fluid
hi i have a cub 105 needing the PTO rebuilt was wondering where you bought your kit and how much thanks
Very helpful. Thank you!
Hey If I get Penetrant on the Friction Disk area --from removing the whole asembly from Driveshaft ,, would this make my clutch Inoperative???
Wear do u get parts for this
How do you take it a part.
where did you get that clutch adjusting tool?
It comes with the clutch rebuild kit.
Without that set tool I'm just gonna have to give it the ol' eyeball and feel to set mine...

What springs because I have 2 cub cadets a 1967 cub cadet 104 and 1968 124 and the pto clutch has no chatter springs just what is in the video
Anyone know if an aftermarket electric clutch is available?

WD40 becomes a dryant so if you want lube to be there use a silicone lube. Otherwise very informative
