Cub Cadet GT2554 Parts Catalog – 72 Pages of Factory Part Numbers

I’ve seen more than a few home garage guys hold up a job because they ordered the wrong air filter or used a generic bolt that stripped the first time they torqued it. That’s where a factory parts catalog ends the guesswork. This Cub Cadet GT2554 Parts Catalog is a 72-page document that lists every nut, seal, gasket, and wire by OEM part number. No aftermarket rewrites. No “equivalent” part lists. You get the exact reference numbers used on the assembly line.

Page 1 starts with the air intake and filtration system. The exploded diagram shows the housing, element, precleaner, and even the specific M6 x 1.0 x 16 hex flange screw (part KH-24-086-53-S). If you need the intake manifold gasket, the part number KH-24-041-53-S is right there on page 2. No flipping through three different PDFs.

Air Intake and Filtration: More Than Just a Filter

The breakdown for the air intake includes 20 separate part numbers. The kit part KH-54-755-01 includes knob and seal, but you can also buy the individual knob (KH-25-341-03) if the seal is still good. That kind of granularity saves you buying a whole assembly when you only need a gasket. The S/P/F column tells you if a part is a Service item, a Production part, or a Fastener. This matters because S parts are what you stock, P parts are only available through dealer channels, and F parts are common hardware you can source elsewhere.

Battery and Electrical: The Wiring Harness and Switches

You get the full electrical schematic of the tractor starting on page 3. The main harness (629-04111) is listed as an S item. The interlock switch for the brake (725-3164A) and the reverse snap mount switch (725-3167) are both Service parts. If your tractor won’t crank and you’ve already checked the battery, the seat switch (725-04040) could be the culprit. The catalog gives you the part number and shows the exact layout of the wiring clips, ties, and relay.

Need the 25-amp fuse? It’s part 725-3243. The 5-amp fuse is 725-04008. These are common, but if you’re ordering a replacement harness, you want the factory tie-down clips (726-0154) that match the original routing. Aftermarket clips bend and slide off. Factory clips fit.

Why a Factory Parts Catalog Trumps Aftermarket

I have a box of aftermarket parts catalogs that are missing half the fasteners and mislabel gaskets. This 72-page Parts Catalog came from the same source as the dealer counter. The part numbers start with KH for Kohler engine components, 7xx for hardware, 6xx for wire harnesses. That consistent numbering system lets you cross-reference with other Cub Cadet models if needed. Compare that to a third-party PDF that renumbers everything and you’re back to measuring with a caliper.

For context on why OEM documentation matters across all vehicles, check the Automotive Industry Overview. The same principle applies to lawn tractors: factory specs are the only standard that matters when reliability is on the line.

Who Needs This 72-Page Catalog?

Home garage guys restoring an old Cub Cadet GT2554. Small engine shops looking up a part number for a customer. Anyone who’s tired of buying the wrong air filter or missing a gasket that makes the engine run lean. If you’ve ever had to disassemble a blower housing twice because you forgot one baffle screw, this catalog is your insurance against repeat labor.

How to Use the S/P/F Column

Each line in the parts list has a column marked S, P, or F. S means the part is stocked as a service item—you can order it directly. P is a production-only part, meaning it’s not sold separately; you might need to buy the full assembly. F is a fastener, which you can usually purchase from a hardware store if you match the grade. This column alone saves you from calling the dealer for every bolt.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this catalog include torque specs for assembly?

No. This is a parts catalog, not a service manual. You get part numbers and exploded views, not torque values. If you need tightening specs, get the factory service manual for the GT2554.

I have a GT2554 built after the “K015 & Before” date. Will these parts fit?

The catalog explicitly states “Mfg Date K015 & Before”. Later models might have different part numbers for the air cleaner base, wiring harness, or blower housing. Always verify the revision letter. Ordering a part for a later serial number without cross-referencing the manual risks incompatibility. You can use the S/P/F codes to check if a part supersedes the older design, but the safest bet is to match your tractor’s serial number to the correct catalog revision. If you cannot confirm, call the dealer with your chassis number.
