Cub Cadet 46E Parts Catalog – Factory Parts Breakdown for the 4×4 Utility Vehicle

If you are wrenching on a Cub Cadet 46E and need to know which axle seal goes where or what part number that brake caliper is, you need the factory Parts Catalog. Not a third-party reprint. Not a generic diagram someone scanned off a forum. The OEM document. This is the one that tells you exactly which CV boot fits the differential side versus the wheel side, and which retaining ring goes on the axle shaft. I have seen too many guys order the wrong part because they trusted an aftermarket parts list. That costs you time and money. This catalog fixes that.

This is a 64-page factory document covering the Cub Cadet 46E 4×4 Utility Vehicle EFI. It is not a service manual — it is a parts catalog. That means every page is an exploded diagram with reference numbers tied to OEM part numbers. You get the exact part number for the diff lock actuator seal, the sway bar bushings, the brake hose, and the CV joint assembly. No guesswork. No cross-referencing. You look up the diagram, find the reference number, and order the part. Period.

Axles & Steering Section – What You Get

The first three pages of this catalog are dedicated to the axles and steering system. Page 1 shows the complete rear axle assembly with the CV joints, differential housing, and brake calipers. Page 2 lists every part with its OEM number, quantity, and whether it is a service part (S), production part (P), or both. For example, the CV joint axle assembly is part number 611-04063A, and it is listed as a service part (S). The differential assembly, part 918-04236, is a production part (P). That distinction matters when you are ordering from a dealer. The catalog also notes which parts are for 4×4 units only — like the sway bar mount (707-04655-0637) and the front differential mount (707-04604A-0637).

Need the brake caliper? Page 2 lists the RH caliper as 961-04043 and the LH as 961-04044. The brake pad kit is 761-04064 and includes two pads. The rear brake hose is 927-04228. All of that is right there in the exploded diagram. You do not have to guess which caliper goes on which side — the catalog tells you.

Torque Specs and Fastener Details

This catalog does not list torque values for every bolt, but it does give you the exact fastener specifications. Every screw, nut, and washer is listed with its thread size, length, and grade. For instance, the screw holding the sway bar mount is a 3/8-16, 1.75-inch, grade 5 (part 710-04640). The nut is a flanged lock nut, 3/8-16, grade F, nylon insert (part 712-04065). If you need torque specs for those fasteners, you will need the service manual. But for parts identification, this catalog is the final word.

Does This Catalog Cover the Entire Vehicle?

Yes — the 64 pages cover the complete Cub Cadet 46E. The OCR excerpt shows the axles and steering section starting on page 1, but the catalog includes sections for the engine, drivetrain, brakes, electrical system, body panels, and more. Each section uses the same exploded diagram format with reference numbers and OEM part numbers. If you are rebuilding a 46E from the ground up, this catalog is your parts bible. You will find every nut, bolt, seal, and bracket listed with the factory number. No aftermarket catalog gives you that level of detail.

3 Reasons to Choose OEM Documentation

First, OEM part numbers are the only numbers that guarantee a correct fit. Aftermarket catalogs often use superseded numbers or generic descriptions that do not match the actual part. Second, the exploded diagrams show how parts relate to each other — you can see that the CV boot on the differential side (731-05082) is different from the wheel-side boot (731-05083). Third, the catalog notes which parts are service parts (available individually) versus production parts (only sold as assemblies). That saves you from buying a whole differential when you only need a seal.

I have been turning wrenches for 28 years, and I have seen the damage that wrong parts can do. A mismatched seal leaks. A wrong-grade bolt snaps. An incorrect brake caliper does not fit. The Cub Cadet 46E Parts Catalog eliminates those problems. It is the same document the dealer uses to order parts. Why would you use anything else?

Source Validity – OEM Factory Document

This is a direct scan of the original Cub Cadet factory parts catalog. It is not a reprint, not a third-party compilation, and not a digital copy of a copy. The file name is CubCadet_46E_Parts_Catalog_en-21214001548.pdf, and it comes from the manufacturer’s official documentation. The contact information on page 1 — “For Discount Cub Cadet Parts Call 606-678-9623 or 606-561-4983” — confirms this is a dealer-level document. You are getting the same information the parts counter uses. For more on why OEM documentation matters in the Automotive Industry Overview, factory specs are the only reliable source.
