1862 Deck Question
 

I have a chance to buy a sound 50 inch deck that was on a Cub Cadet 1862. Is this basically a yellow 50C deck with anti-scalp wheels at the front instead of runners?

I'd like to swap out the 5/8 pulley for a 1/2 and use it on my IH CC 1650.

Thanks!

I ran a 5/8" pulley deck on a 1/2" belt 1x8 machine without changing the pulley!!

It worked great!! :beerchug:

Update - I bought the 50 inch deck. I wanted to get a new style spindle assembly for my 44A deck and figured if I bought any deck that had that style spindle on it (aluminum housing with replaceable bearings) - rusted out or not, I'd be good to go.

Turns out the deck is solid and instead of finding a replacement spindle, I got a very usable deck that will fit my 1650. It even has the wide hole placement for the lifting eye for earlier style tractors like my 1650. Might have to paint it from yellow to white... :bigthink:

The price - $50

Yippie!

Thanks!
Bill

That's awesome!
