Sub Frame Help
I've been having some issues with subframe types and belt lenghts. I am aware of the belt lenght chart on this website, and it is very helpful, but I am having issues with the belts and I think it is a subframe issue. Last summer I bought a 108 with a subframe. The subframe has the automatic belt tension handle on the mule drive, and teh frame its self is slightly arched. I bought a 42" deck and put it on the 108, and the belt that I ended up having to use is 84" long. This is the length of belt that was neccesary for one guy to comfortabely install the belt, and it has worked fine. Well this spring I thought I'd get my 129 going. It did not have a subframe, so last fall at a tractor show, I bought a 42" deck and frame from an individual who claimed he had used it on a 108. This subframe is straight in the back, and the mule drive does not have the auto adjust tension handle, it just has a spring. The deck also appears to be of a slightly different vintage, as the deck runners are stamped sheet metal rather than the bent round bar on my other deck, and teh rear hanger brackets are lighter than the other deck. So I install the new deck/frame on my 129, and take belt off the 108 to try it, and it is to long. I stopped last night and bought a 1/2x80, and I cannot physically get it on. I assume that I have yet to get the right subframe/tractor combo, as I have yet to buy a belt based on the chart that fits correctly. Any thoughts/suggestions.

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.
