Wondering about my newest acquisition
 

It is my opinion that all cub cadet 109's manufactured between 1971 and 1974 carry the serial numbers of 400001 to 529811. Mine has a serial number of 2050044U310945*. Can someone point me in the right direction to find the right way to decipher these numbers? Thanks. Carpetbagger

That serial number comes back to September of 69 310945 is the serial.

Kind code is 044 which is correct for 109.

I'm guessing you used tractor data to get your year range. The information there is less than accurate to be nice about it

Thanks Cubby 102
 

Where can I find where and how to decipher these numbers as well as others from the serial numbers? Thanks. CB

205 = Code for Garden Tractor
0044 = Code for the 109 Build
U = Code for made on the USA
xxxxxx = The sequential Serial Number

here go.....

Could you be reading the serial number wrong? Maybe the 3 is actually a 5, making it 510945, which would be correct for a 109.
