Default 42" mower deck (got 'er done)
I got this deck and mule drive given to me (Lew price) all in pieces, from a friend, who I do all kinds of work for. He has more parts and stuff from all kinds of farm machinery than one could imagine (a tinkerers dream). I had shown him the 125 that I redone and he asked me if I had a deck for it. I told him "no" and he gave me this.

So, after a little sand blast, wire wheel and sanding disk. It's a nice day and it's ready for primer. Needed a paint rack. Here it is.

Well, it's still a nice day so it's time to paint. And then, it started to drip rain, just when I painted the last part. Got it all in before anything got ruined.

I checked the bearings and pulleys (all in good shape) and a few days later, put it together. Shoved it under the tractor, ready to install. These car lifts really work great.

And there it is, folks, ready to kill grass!!!!!

I think a few of you guys are wondering, "OH Yeah, it looks pretty ..................but does it work?"
Well let me tell ya. Yep, it works better than my GREEN one.

That's a K301 12 HP to go in my other 125 when I get time to fix that one and paint it.

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.
