Hey Alan, I am no pro here, and I am in a similar situation on my recently aquired 1970 154 Lo-boy. I was lucky and got a photo copied manual with my tractor when I got it. I also got a lot of information from the Cub web sight (www.cleancomputes.com/cub/index.html) including parts manual pages. I was able to remove my clutch without moving the engine forward the two inches (as manual states). I un-did the coupling from the motor and was able to slide the main shaft far enough ahead to get it out of the clutch disc. I was able to get a new disc and pilot bushing from the local I.H. dealer for around $50. My throw out, and pressure plate were OK, but I wouldn't be suprised if they are still available through I.H. too. My dilema was the main shaft had a serious vibration when engaged, indicating pilot bushing problems. When I took it apart I found that there was no pilot bushing present !! Now that I have begun putting it back together, I have found that with the pilot, disc, and pressure plate installed the shaft does not line up with the motor coupling very well (by more than a 1/2 inch), and I am not sure why ??? I started looking for signs of a bent frame, or egg shaped trans axel mounts, but don't see any problems. Now I am guessing that this may be why it ate the pilot bushing (or why it was intentionally left out). What am I missing here, any comments please ????? Thanks, Esev

Box Plow Blues - by Tom Schwarz. One of the first implements most tractor owners obtain is the box plow. For very little money, this piece of equipment promises to plow and flatten any hill or vale on your ranch road or farm. At least that's what I thought! As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
