I have one 149 currently under going a restoration. I have stumbled upon another one for sale locally. I was under the assumption that all 149's had hydro lifts, but the one I have option to buy does not. So my question is, did IH make manual lift 149's, or is the one I am going to look at not actually a 149, perhaps a 129 or 169 that has been repowered with a K321? Question 2, if they did make a manual lift 149, would it have a non ported hydro pump on it? I have yet to see it in person, going to look at it in the morning (I will take a some tools with me, pull the tunnel cover off and snoop around inside there a bit), but thought I should research this a bit before I get there and the money burns a hole in my pocket! Thanks for the help!
I have seen pics of it, I believe it is newer than the one I currently have, mine was made in March of 72, it came with a 48" deck with 2 separate spindle covers. The one I am looking at buying has a 44" deck with one piece spindle covers, I believe the later model 149's came equipped that way, the owner was not able to provide me with the serial number. I guess I too have fallen victim to "yellow fever", this crap isn't fatal is it?

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.
