    QL1000 - biggest mowing deck? I've got a line on a nice condition quite-line 1000. It comes with one of the old, small decks. (38A?) My 1450 is down right now and awaiting an engine transplant. I need to mow now and the 1000 is priced reasonably so I was thinking about picking it up...

    Need a VA shop to rebuild k321... I have a k321 that came out of a 1450 that needs to be overhauled. I was wondering if anyone had a referral for a shop that might specialize in these. I'm hoping to find someone in Virginia if possible. I’m pretty much open to driving a reasonable distance...

    Will the lift work on a wide frame or QL? If so, I'll take it. (I understand a motor is required) Calvin

    Is this an internal Brake 3 speed rear end? My long term desire as far as the cub hobby goes would be to rebuild a 1200 like we owned when I was growing up. I've got a rolling carcass of a 1250 and have been keeping my eyes open for 3 speed rear. Is the one pictured an internal brake model...

    Hi Harry, Thanks for the advice! The hydro safety switch was disabled by PO and I never fixed it - which is my fault and what led to my first issue, I'm sure it is hard on the tractor to have the starter surge it forward on a hill! Anyhow, your advice is exactly the type I need! I will...

    1450: won’t re-start/no power – any advice on troubleshooting or cause? Yesterday I went out changed the oil in my 1450, greased the deck bearings and mowed for the first time this season. On the way back up to the garage I have to climb a short, but very steep hill that I've not had a...

    Got a Tiny Tach - is WTO 3600 RPM with or without load? I've been waiting forever to have the extra $ to purchase a Tiny Tach. I was finally able to order one 2 weeks ago. I finally got a chance to work on the 1450 over the weekend. I set the throttle at 3600 RPM no load with the tiny...

    Gary, I'm by no manys an expert - but something seems wrong. The front PTO oil seals seem to go easily on these tractors - dad had to do our 1200 at least twice over the years. I got my 1450 for a reasonable deal because it smoked SO BAD from oil spewing from the front PTO seal. I repaired...

    Grease zerk pulled out of 44a spindle - repair possible? I was greasing a bearing/spindle from a 44a deck this evening and the zerk pulled out of spindle. Is there any way to repair this? It's a good bearing otherwise and just need some cleaning. Thanks, Calvin

    Regarding the 44U deck mystery... Well, I haven't been able to find anything re. The 44 U deck. The deck looks exactly like the one in Charlie's pic. It has serial plate in the same place as my 50A. The top is rattle can painted Cub Cadet off white and I can't tell what color it was before...

    Could someone provide details of 44U deck and if it works with a QL? I just got a line on a 44U deck with the sheet metal in great shape. Could someone provide details about this deck? Bearing/spindle types, etc? I thought QL decks were 44A or 50A and the U is throwing me for a loop as...

    50A deck eating belts - anyone know why? I have a 50A rotary mower on my 1450. The first (new) deck beck (not PTO) lasted a single season and broke the last mow of 2010. A 2nd belt (brand new that season) lasted for 2011 season, which was several fewer mows than 2010. Does anyone know...
