Hi all,
Just acquired a Cub Cadet HDS 3186 with a 54" deck from a buddy of mine. Had been sitting in his field for the past year and a half and didn't need it anymore, so it was passes along to me. Engine fired right up after a jump and some clean gas put in. Smoked a little but everything seems to work fine. Took a bit of cleaning to break the mower deck blades free of the muck but got those spinning as well. I would like to give the machine a thorough tune up to the engine and replace the worn out parts on the mower deck (290 series I believe). I am having a heck of a time finding the correct part numbers for everything and would like to see if there are any spindle, belt, blade kits for the deck. Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks,
Charles
 
Charles, WELCOME!

If you use the Parts Lookup website you should be able to find part numbers and exploded views. Here's what I found for mower blades:
