Default 149 mower mounting...
My 149 came with the 38" deck and is working fine.

I recently acquired a 44" deck I'd like to try -- It should hook up to the mule the same way right?
does it use the same size drive belt?
And when lifting my 38" mower, should it lift evenly -- is it indicative of a mule problem if it doesn't lift evenly?

Not necessarily. Could be the Rock Shaft Arms.

sight across the arms when they are down.
They should be parallel.

Thanks for that!

Too many projects -- but I guess I'll have to try the 44" mover to see if I prefer it to the 38"...

Are the spindles from a 44 the same as a 38?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
