Check the mounting hole location, seems like some DEERE's had a different mount than cub, also check the column length as the steering wheel might be to high or low to the dash.

Not sure of mounting holes, but column is a ways shorter!

Different as in fitting itself, or layout?

I put Deere power steering pumps( columns) to some people, in my quiet line and 82 series tractors,
they worked well and the hyd fittings were *37 flair
be aware some used pumps use "O" ring face fittings.
but these custom instillation's require special fabricated brackets and hyd lines.
both columns were a bit shorter than factory manual columns but nothing that caused a problem.
They were out of 318 Deere's

Don't really have time to tear into it, was looking for another option, read somewhere that they were the same. Must be the internal workings & not the overall size of it. Did some reading on rebuilding it for the leak I have & said to replace 3 seals. Looked them up & they are $51, $128, & $21 a piece.

Emailed a supplier on here for a column & they said $500. So I guess I will be rebuilding it after all.

There is a kit for about $70 with everything one needs.
it fits them all.
Deere was the least expensive but seems someone here posted one from Messicks that was less $$.
Also there are several write ups/posts on the task.
Not hard just have to be careful and cleanliness is upmost important.
Google the 'net and /search on this OCC.
I have done several successful rebuilds, only problem is the little"Jesus" springs, as they have a habit of disappearing, and one says, "Jesus, where did it go"
My local Deere dealer keeps several sets on hand just for that reason.
Take yer time, follow the recommendations and slow & easy on reassy.
and careful on the 6 little springs ( just a bit bigger than ink pen retract springs)
Watch the valve plate orientation, make scribe marks on the outside of the sandwich case before disassy, it is all covered in the posts/net.

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.
