Default 126 mower deck on a 129???
Will this work? I have a deck on my 129 already so all I need is the deck.
from what I understand a 126 is a narrow frame and my 129 is a wide frame.
I have done a bunch of searches but can't search for 129 [to short].
One possible problem is belt size?

Yes if will work provided you have the correct mule drive, the mule drive needs to have straight pulleys not angled pulleys.

First, welcome to OCC.....

Your inquiry is kind of vague and confusing. Are you attempting to install a mower deck from a 126 onto a 129..??

If so, what is the model of the 126 deck ?? There were three options during that time.

When looking at the 2 pulleys they are straight up and down.

Yes a deck off a 126 on my 129. I have a 38a deck on the 129.
I can get photos of my deck but I do not have any for the 126 deck.
I will get the model number for the other deck and passably photos.

When looking at the front of the tractor the pulleys need to be straight not angled to the right, as Roland said post up some pics or atleast tell use what size deck your trying to put on the 129.

Well then, "generally speaking", it comes down to getting the correct Mule Drive to make the adaption.

Mule drive looks fine, the 42" deck should work no problem.

That big adjuster knob on the right is interesting. Looks like billet aluminum with a gnurled end you can turn by hand....cool

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.
