Deck ID tag missing
 

Is this a 44A or 44C deck? Came off a 1975 1250 model. Deck ID tag is missing. What size deck belt would I need?
Thanks

The deck drive takes the same belt whether it is a 44A or a 44C.

Did you even go look at the parts book yourself? If not, try that.

If I had a parts manual, I wouldn't have asked, now would i???

But thanks for clarifying that belt works for either or.

954-3004 got it.

I gave a link to the parts manual.... Or did you click on it???

It's available all the time... online, everyday and night. Feel free to use it.... because it's free.:biggrin2:

Yep got it. I posted the part number above. Didn't u see it?
Thanks

So what is it?

yes?

I have a 44" deck on my 149 but I didn't know that there was a A and C version.
What's the difference? Not that it matters, just another one of those curious things. If I never find out I suppose it won't have a great meaning for my life and I don't want to compare a parts list of one to the other but if someone want to share what the difference might be I'll be glad to read it. LOL!

Whew,
An "A" deck has a 1/2" drive belt from the engine so the center pulley is 1/2" to match.
On a "C" deck, the belt & pulley is 5/8" wide.
Clear as mud?:bigthink:

Randy, there's also a "Just plain ol' 44" version. Talk about curious! I think we should just keep wondering...:bigthink: :biggrin2:

Now that link provides an excellent and clear response. Even I understood that. Thanks R Bedell for your helpful, short and sweet answer.
ahahahahahahaaaa.....It's been years since my 149 has even been used. It's the first Cub I ever bought so that's why I keep it.
I have a difficult time selling stuff. That explains the 8 Cubs I have now and two JDs and one over 30 year old Craftsman GTV16.

Yeah..... I saw the part number when I looked it up before answering your question. I didn't know how you got it. From all I know the guys over at GTT talk gave it to you. Could have called a Cub dealer. :RollEyes2:



I'm not sure how that answered your question. Yes, that is the order the decks were made, but there are some difference between the 3, and they will all interchange in application. You can put any of them on any of the models, if you set it up right and use the correct belt.

There were three (3) versions of the 44 inch Mower Deck

* 44 for the 1x8/9 Series
* 44A for the Quietline Series
* 44C for the 82 Series.

This answered my question. I just new I had a 44" deck on my 149, not knowing there was an A or C. I must have the plain old 44.

I guess mine isn't referred to anything other than a 44" deck. I suppose this is only useful if someone would ask if it was the A or C deck.
I wonder why A and C??? What happened to B??? LOL!!!!
