The CC Original (the first of the Cub Cadets) has it's serial number stamped into the side of the transaxle. Then the 70 and 100 also had their serial numbers stamped into the side of the transaxle. Early examples of the 71, 102, 122, and 123 tractors have the serial number stamped into the side of the transaxle, but the later versions of them have the serial number plate at the rear of the axle. The 1X4 1X5 series and 1X6 1X7 series also have the serial number plate at the back of the axle. Then early Wide Frame tractors came with the plate at the back of the axle, but for later ones it was moved forward, mounted on the side of the frame near the brake/clutch pedal. It was mounted in that same spot for the Quietlines and spread frames (82 series) and all the way to the Cyclops series of tractors. Exact location on the frame varies slightly over the years but they all remain in the general area of the brake pedal or clutch pedal on the left side of the machine.

I just realized I typed a whole paragraph just on Cub Cadet serial number location, sorry 'bout that
