Default Will this deck fit?

Hey all!

Ok, will my IH 38" mower deck off my model 86 Wide frame fit on to my 1450 with out any problems? Both mule drives for both models are in good working order.

Thanks

John

Depending on what mule drive and lift are on the QL, you may want to use the mule and lift from the 86.

But yes, Jason is exactly right.

You may have a tire rub issue depending on where the tires mount on the mower deck and how wide of a tire you have on your 1450

I don't think any of my 38" triangle shaped, cast nose decks have wheels at all.

The 38" cast end decks do though (outside the rear tires).

Wow! Thank you all, for the great replies! I believe I'm going to use the 1450's mule drive, if I have the correct length belt needed. I do have the drive belts from both the 50" deck of the 1450, and the 38" deck of the model 86.

My 1450 is now going to be equipped with this mower deck. I'm going to equip my model 72 with my nicest IH 42" snow blade, and make this my full time snow tractor! I'm looking forward to having the deck on my 1450 now!

My 86 is going to get painted later on down the road, and up grading to a k301 engine.

Thanks again! I'll get back with an update,.......

dale c, Went with your advice. The two mule drives have many differences, but whether or not those differences matter, I don't know. Seems to have turned a light on, in my mind, anyway.

So, the Wide Frame IH 38" deck is now correctly installed on my 1450!!!! For 1971(?) mowing deck, it's condition really is in better than tonight's pictures accredit it. Finishing up with supper, going back out to the cubby garage to finish up with my 1450!

Sure does look good under the heavily powered Kohler K321QAs!

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.
