Can someone tell me what mower decks will fit on this Cub Cadet 1641 I just purchased ? The deck that is on the mower is fairly small , 44 inch I think , and I'd like to get a bigger deck 48 to 54 inches .

The mounts on the deck are different spacing. About the best way to do it is to find another tractor with the right deck and change them and then sell the one with the 42" deck. The Super series used different brackets yet! This doesn't meant though that with a torch and welder that you couldn't modify to fit! ....
