Thanks guys for the Help
I went out this morning to turn the gasket around :huh: .its still to short.hopefully where I got it will send me another,it was expensive for a little peice of paper compared to other gaskets :BigEyes .
What do you guys think of using neoprene in this application???I have this gasket for a template just need to lengthen it a bit.
I know very little about the neoprene gaket material.

Thanks Bob,
I think both of ours are wrong !!! If you look at the lever on the right, the one that came off my 70, there are two rusty lines 2/3 the way up the handel towrds the top.I belive someone hammered it flat and trimed it off.Could be wrong but by looking at the handel and compareing it to the one on the left it looks like it.

Jason, My lever has wear on it which would make me think it is original. I have not used it yet, but it looks original.

Merk, how is the lever properly installed? Mine is very floppy and does not stay against the catch detents well at all. Does the spring go on the inside or outside of the sheetmetal riser?

Hello gentelmen,
I got the cutch apart today,built a press,and all does not look well !!

This is the drive shaft,looks like the throwout bearing has been locked up for a while!! Time for a new one.Actually Im not sure its the throwout bearing cause the inside has very little wear,maybe the teaser spring???
Posted Image

Here is the spring and rusted up bearing.See the washer?looks like its almost wore through.
Posted Image

And last but not least the clutsh disc and pressure plates.The pressure plates are a mess,Can they be turned???the clutch disc has a groove wore into it.
Posted Image

All in all a good day,One huge mistake I made,does anyone have a picture of a put togher complete assembly,drive shaft,clutch ect???I did not take a picture myself and am second guessing the washer location,its not on the cub cadet parts look up,the washer that is.
Thanks Jason

That's fairly normal wear from the throwout bearing. Looks like you'll need a new bearing, main spring, teaser spring, and friction disc. I have turned several sets of pressure plates. It's not difficult if you can operate a lathe. Your service manual will have all the information you need to reassemble the clutch. ;)

Thanks Matt,
Ive been pricing stuff for the clutch,wow :BigEyes it will be awhile before i get it all!!! the bearing , clutch disc,and drive shaft are pretty expensive the rest isnt so bad.I dont have a lathe so im going to have to find someone who does,thats gonna be fun,maybe a place that does brakes or engines ?Thanks for the advice on the service manual,I for some reason,that needs to stop,like to go to the cub cadet parts look up and see there.

Im going to call ken updike (sp) this week to get some pricing on some paint and primer.Im starting to strip parts and dont want to do to much more and just let them sit, its the desert but things still rust after time!!!
doesnt look like im going to get a new gasket,not even a response.Can i get one from our sponsors above??transfer case gasket,not the cover the one to the rear?? Anyone use the neoprene???
Thanks Jason

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.
