Subframe to support pin bracket clearance??
I put a 44" deck on my 129 today and I am having issues with the rear support pins staying in the subframe. The pins are fully seated on the brackets but they came out twice today while mowing. I have two subframes and they are both 10 1/4" wide +/- a hair while the deck support pin brackets are at 10 15/16". Is this clearance normal. On my older NF stuff with decks, there is an 1/8" of difference between the two. Any input would be appreciated. Hate to have to put a deck on one of the Wheel Horses......
I can try to get pics if needed. Thanks in advance!!

On the subframe, is there still a "bar" welded between the two arms? I've seen before where they have broken and came out. You know how we like pics! Go ahead and kick one on here, we'll take a look-see!

I have bent the arms on the Sub-Frame slightly outward to help with this problem.

Pics
I took a couple of pictures with the deck all the way to the left. As you can see I have over a 1/2" gap on the right and the pin is barely in the hole on the right side.

I had a similar problem with the deck on my 782. It never really stayed centered and one side would drop off if I hit a bump hard. Over time it got worse. I tried bending it out a little but then I had trouble getting the pin to catch. Since I rarely take the deck off, I ended up replacing the pin and spring with a long shoulder bolt and that took care of the problem. It takes a little longer to pull the deck off but until I do a full rebuild and see what the issue is, it works for me.

I think bending the arms will help. You could always 1.) Cut the brace out, and weld in a slightly longer one. 2.) Add some washers between the spring pin bracket and subframe. The washers will be a pain and removal and install, but, if you can't bend them enough, or don't have a welder, I'm sure it would help.

Thanks for the replies everyone!! I can make up for the gap, I just wanted to make sure it was nothing obvious that I was missing. As far as the subframe being bent, I have two that are the exact same width which is why I was unsure. I will fab something up and or tack weld washers or spacers to each side of the subframe.

maybe you can drill and put a clip thru the end so it can't come 0ff anymore, that way its still easy to remove without tools.

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.
