Your free mower deck matches JayNJeep's free tractor! Neglected but worthy of being saved. Nice find!

Got out in the shop, primed the thing, and put some grease in the spindles and turned the blades.

I took some pics, the front "nose" is cracked so I will have somebody who can weld cast things or swap the part. The blades still have some yellow on them too!

What a lucky find Clay!! Give that cat some treats for helping you locate that deck. Another great story behind a find. Wish it still had the wooden roller on it. Did you ever find out what model cub it came off of? My guess is a 12x, probably a 125, but it is only a guess. I think the schools wanted enough hp to get the job done, but didn't splurge on anything too extravagant, like a 147. I picked up my 126 from on old school surplus, along with some nice goodies to boot.

found out earlier today from a friend of a friend that builds these tractors up for pulling competition, I was looking for some usable stockish drive clutch pieces for my 1200 since its hub is about broken out, just need something that I can test with at the moment, since I got the machine non running and with the governor gear screw laying alongside the engine on the frame.... if it runs and doesnt knock or smoke then I'll buy new stuff...

anyhow, I mentioned that I was looking for a couple decks and he says "I wish you'd have asked like a month ago, I just scrapped one that I was tired of tripping on, nice shape too"..... I had asked him last Fall and he was supposed to keep an eye out for one for me, figures.....

Default Update no. 2

After working on it more and spinning the blades more, I have determined that the spindles are still good. Also after some hard work removing the blades, I removed the spindles. I also removed the back hangers, straightened the shell the best I could. I also noticed a crack, so I welded it, I think I did good for a 13 year old, ground it flush.
Everytbing is off except fot the idler assembly, which is rusted too much for a socket wrench.
As you may see the underside is pitted but not so much.

You can see how deep in the dirt the deck wheels were.

Not a bad looking weld there! I hate welding mower decks--in thin areas that are highly corroded, well it often times just doesn't weld at all.

At least the old decks were made of steel, the newer stuff is like a beer can. I had to put a patch on a GT46 the other day and had the Miller turned down about as low as it would go and it blew through. Had to play the tack, tack, tack game.

What is the frame for in the back ground Clay?

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.
