Default I don't want the deck

I have a 1450 that has I believe a 50 in deck under it. I don't want the deck so I have taken it out. I am going to restore the tractor but I also want to use it with attachments such as a plow and box blade for a small garden. It doesn't have the sleeve hitch assembly or the 3 point hitch for that. I would love to trade for that. I'm not sure if that's possible or even against the rules. I mowed grass with it and it done fine before taking it off. any advise???

If you measure tip to tip of the blades facing the outside of the deck you will get an accurate width. A 50" is the largest that was available for the 1450.

If you are selling or wanting something, it needs to go in the Classified Section.

My advice is to stand the mower deck assembly in a corner and let it sit. Sooner or later, you'll want it or someone that has a rusty deck and good tractor will like to pay you decent money for it.

Those decks were really bad about rusting through under the edge of the top cover.

I agree... the mower deck is one of the most useful attachments you could have. Even if you don't use it now id put it up somewhere... Just my opinion

Keep it. You may want to mow some day and you'll kick yourself selling the mower off.

i agree about keeping the deck, you never know when you might need it and if you ever decide to sell the tractor it will sell faster and for a lot more money with the deck.

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.
