Mule drives
 

I have a 126 cub I think it was built June of 67 if I ran the numbers right. I've been looking at some of the mule drives on this site. To see about (facing front of tractor)the left side pully having a spring on it to hold tension. Mine does not have the spring just a adjustment bolt like the right side. Is this normal or should it have the spring. Its working just fine the way it is . if its not broke don't fix it. Just asking was all

The bolts on both pulleys is correct..... the build date is wrong tho... the 126 is 69-71 only according to tractordata.com

1969: 307000
1970: 322858
1971: 373301
Final: 400000

OK I was only going by serial number chart I seen someplace maybe I read it wrong and its 69

Should there be a spring also

There isnt any springs on mine

OK so mine is good the way it is then I'm hoping its a 126 that's what the badges say are they the rare ones or the 123

126 is third lowest production model with 5,247 being made. Whats the serial # on your tractor?

The 38" and 42" mowers I've had on the 104/124, 106/126 series of tractors had a mule drive like this as far as belt tensioning.

I've seen mule drives made with adjustment bolts on both sides. I thought they were pin on decks not quick attach. Too many variations to remember.

Maybe it's a tiller mule drive?
