Yup that belt's a killer on the pocketbook. Take good care of it and don't loose it once you get it.

Hi,
Does this same belt fit a 127?
Trying to get a tiller mounted too.

Found several other numbers of belts on here from searching older posts too.

Looks like a AX-144 NAPA belt number? If the length is 144 inches then that matches close with the 13/32x143.8 number assuming the 143.8 is the length too. ( this belt seemed to be lower cost but not sure how well it worked or for how long compared to Cub IH belt?)
and also found this number for the long tiller belt 3Vx530 (not sure who has that)
Not sure if I am helping here
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I gave those belt numbers as those are what I'm using on my 125 with 1A tiller.

I have three seasons on the long and short belts. That does include plenty of rock abuse from cutting in my garden and my neighbor's garden three years out of finely manicured lawn.

Jeff

Jeff,
Thanks for the information on how these belts hold up over time. I just ordered the AX-144 from NAPA. It was $40 plus shipping from Georgia.
Regards,
Chris

I will add I store them coiled up ( the 144 ) and hung from a nail so they keep a good shape. As far as I'm concerned, they already paid for themselves.

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.
