Search this site and the internet using "3160 mower".

Lots of hits including the manual and retailers selling parts.

I know about the 3160 but what does the U stand for ? I have never seen a U before.
Thanks = AL

I don't know what the U1111 stands for. It appears on some Cub Cadet mower decks. The first 3 numbers indicate the mower deck then the U1111.

I've seen the U1111 on several number series attachments, 3260 deck, snow plow and such. I have no idea of it's meaning.

Rest your "Case" I like that. These decks can be confusing as to who made them at what time. I was a moron about this stuff and maybe not getting better. Certain decks like the 3260 just have to run one direction and are built to exit at the right. I was surprised to see Woods L59 belly decks advertised for 154 type because I knew the Allis Chalmers B, C used them and ( I thought) their PTO ran opposite direction. It is all interesting but wait a minute. The Woods belly deck uses two leading blades with the middle trailing behind. This is opposite the workings of the 3260 but the Woods has three bolts to fasten each blade. Left or right ( I think) and the "U" may mean universal. Either or both side panels can be removed for mowing tall stuff.

The "U" stands for USA (where it was built).
