New driveshaft with pilot turned for ball bearing

 

[Neil Mullins]

Will assemble driveshaft/clutch assembly tomorrow

Does the drive shaft turn freely within the bearing?

Does the drive shaft turn freely within the bearing?

Yes The pilot on the Driveshaft can be pushed in to the bearing. The bearing is a double row ball bearing

 

[dschwandt]

Yes, I know
But, is the drive shaft stationary when the engine is running with the clutch disengaged?
It should not be turning.

Yes it works as normal

 

[Neil Mullins]

Driveshaft/clutch assembly back together. New friction disk, teaser spring, release bearing, spiral pins . New drive pins in clutch drive plate as well

 

[Neil Mullins]

Think my next project, once I have this one completed. Going to research adding a hydraulic disk brake system.

106 on the “mechanics lift” today

 

[Neil Mullins]

Installed new driveshaft, clutch assembly to new creeper drive

 

[Neil Mullins]

New re-man 12 hp back in frame. Guess this makes my 106 a hybrid 126?? Lol

 

[Neil Mullins]

Still have all the small stuff to do that’s adds up. All the outside bolt on stuff,,, starter/gen, linkages, adjust governor, obvious other things fuel tank, etc. I haven’t kept up with $$ but guesstimate of 1500$ is probably conservative. For a garden tractor that was worth as much in $$ when I started as it is now. Fact remains the IH Cub is 52 years old. & is most likely good for another very long run with any reasonable care in the future.

 

[Neil Mullins]

Oh My I’ve had the 106 apart to long. LOL been a bit of a jigsaw puzzle putting it back together. Probably have 4-5 more hours. Down to the small stuff, control cables, Fuel tank, fluids, etc.

It Lives!!

 

[kharvey]

How does it live without a fuel line?

 

[Neil Mullins]

Tried a Hong Kong Fooey carb. After having float bowl off 6 times adjusting the float level. Did manage to make it run. Tuning of the carb was then impossible. Finally gave up on that & pulled the OE carb off of the 10 HP I removed. Quick clean with brake cleaner, & carb issues resolved. Still zeroing in the governor.
