Is there a model number somewhere on the deck?

Hi,

I have a parts company trying to help me with locating a deck for my 129. They asked if there is a model number somewhere on the deck. I'm thinking that if their was it is surely worn off by now. I have no idea what the actual model number is for the deck.

Should be a tag riveted to the top side. If it's gone, you'll have to look it up on the cub cadet website...

A picture would help a lot...!!

Roland,

Since you asked....not sure how much this will help. I'll also check on the Cub website.

Is that not the tag I see in picture on right side as picture faces us? Can't read it from pic but looks like the tag

Coop...well, yeah, it is, but unfortunately if there were any numbers immediately close to it I painted over it last year when I did both sides. I don't recall seeing any numbers however - pretty sure I would not have painted over them, which is the reason I didn't want to paint over the tag to begin with. If that's where the numbers usually are, I might be out of luck. IF they'd be engraved or stamped somewhere, might be a way to still find them.

Take a close up of that tag.. You can usually make out most of the numbers.Try to clean it up.. gently tho. In any event here is what your tag likely said if its a 42 inch deck. Did you measure it?

Found the riveted ID tag...was staring me right in the face near the discharge!

Are you needing a part for your deck or wanting a new one?

Mine has a few areas that are rusted through. The baffles are gone at this point. It has been suggested to put new spindles, etc. in the old deck, but not sure that's the best way to go, so IF I decide to keep my Cub going (many long threads on this...too many actually!) I would want to replace the deck with one that is in much better shape.
