Cub Cadet 46G Parts Catalog

You pull a part off the shelf, it doesn’t fit, and now you’re stuck waiting on a return. That’s the cost of guessing on part numbers. I’ve seen guys swap a battery hold-down bracket only to find the bolt pattern is off by 1/8 inch because they bought a “universal” kit. This Cub Cadet 46G Parts Catalog kills that headache before it starts. It’s the factory-issued parts breakdown for the diesel 4×4 utility vehicle, serial number 11029Z and after. Every bolt, bracket, and bulb is listed with the exact OEM part number. No generic cross-references, no “this should work.” You get the same page that a dealer parts counter uses.

Battery & Dash Panel: What the Breakdown Shows

Page 1 of the 71 pages kicks off with the battery and dash panel accessories. You get exploded diagrams with callouts for every item—battery (450 CCA wet), key switch (4-position Delta), indicator lights, power receptacle, and the fuse mount bracket. The parts list includes fastener specs: self-tapping screws for mounting fuel relay and glow plug timer to the radiator shroud, lock washers, hex nuts. If you’re replacing a headlight assembly, you’ll see it includes the socket (part number 625-04036P), plus the bulb separate (925-3161A). No need to buy a whole assembly when you only need a bulb—the catalog shows that distinction.

Cargo Bed Assembly: Getting the Right Hinges and Latches

Page 3 jumps into the cargo bed section. You’ve got tailgate assemblies in black, Cub yellow, green, and red—each with its own part number. The bed latch lever assembly (607-04180) and the box assembly (607-04191C-0637 for black) are broken out individually. If your bed hinges are rusted, you don’t have to buy the whole box; just order the hinge bracket from the diagram. This is how you avoid overpaying for assemblies you don’t need. The catalog also footnotes whether a part is serviceable or replaceable only as a unit—critical info when writing a work order.

71 Pages of Factory Diagrams

The entire document runs 71 pages, covering every major system: battery and dash, cargo bed, front axle, drivetrain, engine components, and more. Each page follows the same layout—exploded view on top, numbered parts list below with description, quantity, and S/P/F (service, part, or fastener) flags. The wiring harness section lists separate harnesses for diesel Yanmar, Kohler EFI, and 4×4 neutral switches. If you’re swapping a harness, you need the exact sub-model match, and this catalog gives you that.

Why OEM Part Numbers Matter for Safety

Using the wrong bolt on a battery clamp can lead to a loose connection, arcing, and a fire risk. The catalog specs the exact screw type and length—self-tapping TT 5/16-18 x .500 for the battery mount bracket. For the fuel pump harness, it’s separate from the engine harness. Mix them up and you’ll chase an electrical gremlin for hours. Factory part numbers remove the guesswork. You don’t need to measure threads or compare colors—just order the listed number.

Who Needs This Parts Catalog

Home garage guys rebuilding a 46G from a salvage unit, shops maintaining a fleet of diesel utility vehicles, and dealers looking up correct replacements. This isn’t a repair manual—it won’t tell you how to rebuild the engine or torque the head bolts. But if you’re sourcing parts, this is the only document you should trust. Pair it with the factory service manual for torque values and procedures. For background on why factory specs are critical, check the Automotive Industry Overview and Automotive Industry Overview. You’ll also find related catalogs for other models: Cub Cadet 46G Parts Catalog – Factory OEM Parts Breakdown, Cub Cadet 21121C29025 Parts Catalog – 73 Pages of Factory Specs, and Cub Cadet 984 Parts Catalog – 128 Pages of OEM Factory Parts Breakdowns.

Does this parts catalog include torque specifications?

No, this catalog lists part numbers only.

What serial number range does this cover?

This catalog covers the 46G diesel 4×4 utility vehicle with serial number 11029Z and after. That means it applies to later production units, not early 2010 models. If your machine has a serial number starting with 11028 or older, some parts (like the battery tray bracket or dashboard panel) may differ. Always verify your serial number before ordering. The catalog also notes variants—diesel-only parts vs. Kohler EFI—so check the footnotes on each page. For example, indicator lights: diesel units use LED (red and yellow); Kohler EFI uses incandescent bulbs. Ordering the wrong lamp wastes time and money. The catalog clearly separates them by model line.

Stop digging through aftermarket parts websites that show a blurry picture and a vague description. The factory catalog gives you the number, the diagram, and the confidence that it fits. Access the Factory Manual now and keep it on your tablet or printed on the workbench.
