There’s a cotter pin that keeps it from sliding out of the holes in the grill casting. If you use a puller to remove the pto you will need to remove the grill casting. I usually unscrew the turnbuckle on the rod to alllow the lever to go forward until it hits the casting. I then take a piece of wood and put it in the groove on each side of the pulley and give it a whack. Usually takes a whack or two from each side to drive the pto off the bearing. Just make sure you have all the set screws out of the pto before trying to remove the pto.
That picture is deceiving.
There is a sleeve surrounding the shaft for that lever and is retained by a cotter pin
Remove the cotter pin and slide the sleeve off the shaft.
This allows enough room to remove the assembly.
This should be obvious

You will have to remove the mule drive to expose the holes for the shaft to slide out.
Thank you, I figured the Mule Drive might be hiding something. I appreciate all the help!

There is no cotter pin, or bushing. You go not have to remove the mule drive, remove all 6 bolts and remove the PTO rod from the arm and the grill housing should come right off. You will have to move the PTO arm side to side to achieve this....

Whew I'm not nuts yet!!! I couldn't remember a cotter pin or any kind of bushing when I did my 147
Got it off, broke the weld holding this nut on though, all set screw are off but the last one…broke off the head off the Allen wrench, …

Just a quick note on getting set screws as well as any fastener including steering wheel, spray Kroll oil on intended item let set a while I haven't had hardly an issue since. On steering wheels I loosen the nut spray it put a Allen screw in shaft use appropriate puller comes off almost with very minimal effort.
a lot of wear on that friction disc, I am pretty sure it is the original one from 1971. I replaced all the components. The PTO works great now. I am troughing the belt. I also replaced the two mule pulleys and I think the one Mule arm on the left is twisted which may be contributing to the belt coming off.
It's not going to work great for long man. You have the wrong center spring for that style PTO. Once things loosen up a little, that spring is going to move and bind up and cause damage. You need the single spring like the one it had in it. It also looks like it's not set right. Did you have the correct tool to do that?
He's %100 spot on!!!!!!! I used the wrong spring and checking tool on mine...it took no time to blow apart!
okay I
Okay so I ordered Cub Cadet 759-3490 KIT-IH CLUTCH and that was the Spring and tool they sent...
From who Nick? I did the same thing using E-bay and combined with my lack of knowledge...it all came apart!
