Cup holders
 

I wasn't sure which category this goes in but since it's not an OEM feature I decided it was a homemade item. I'm sure there are many of my cubcadet friends that want or have bear holders um I mean cup holders on their cubs including me, so its bragging time. Let's see some photos or a link for one you saw that in your wish list.

I have a 3" magnet that's rated for 45lb, I plan to attach it to some PVC pipe so I have a cup holder for plow day next year. I plan to paint it yellow so it doesn't look like crap.

Thats a good idea never thought of that, 45 lbs you must like the tall boys or are you mounting a cooler lol

No hands...

lmao, that's got to be the best its hard to see how you can beat it unless it had a way to keep things cool.

My 126 has a built in cooler under the seat. Yeah I'm sure IH was not thinking that when they built it. But it coincidentally hold a 6 pack and ice:biggrin2:

You can upgrade that with windshield washer pump and a hose plumbed in series in case your really thirsty and don't want to get up.

I don't drink so the cup holder will be for a 20oz pop bottle. The magnet needs to be strong to hold it against vibration.

Here is what I made pictured on my 149. The can is screwed into the wood with a washer.

Nice toolbox Clay!!:beerchug::beerchug:

I drug home a 1641 that had a large plastic mug screwed right to the side of the hood. It looked terrible.

I'm thinking of a cup holder that would be mounted by silicon to the shaft cover I've spilled more cold beverages or hot coffee than I can count. I think olds45512 has the right Idea using the pvc painted cub yellow I may have to steal that Idea. I thought I would have a slot in the side for the handle.

Don't be like the PO of my 1250, he bolted a van cupholder to the fender to hold a drink. Now there are 5 bolt holes with corrosion around them on my fenders. The best part was that he used those square bolts that prevent the bolt from spinning.

My 2284 came with this plastic crap screwed to the hood.

I guess its mounted that way to keep a beverage hot :biggrin2: Any cup holder I have had on a tractor vibrated so badly that it would make a beer go flat in a couple minutes.

Drink faster :Huh:

I never drink anything carbonated when mowing for this reason. Even holding your drink while you mow can get hectic with dash control hydro.

Think I might try something like this to eliminate vibration. Plus its self righting at least in one direction. I like the small concealable mount and that I can take take the holder off easily leaving the mount

I have used this on 4 tractors, and 2 ATV's,,, perfect results,, and it is insulated.
It will stick to diamond tread and not move,,

I purchased it from Amazon.

I really like that one! going to Amazon now!

Is it big enough to fit a 20oz pop bottle?

If not I might suggest pouring your pop from the 20oz into a smaller container and refill when needed. I drink water so a water bottle should fit nice and it doesn't care about vibration.

Thanks for the idea. I just mentioned to my wife this past weekend, as she was bringing me a bottle of water, why in the heck didn't they put cup holders on these things.

Thanks CAD.
$10 on Amazon. Just ordered mine.

They are going fast,, better hurry,,, :bigeyes:

Yep, I use it with the plastic Diet Coke bottles all the time,, a 24 ounce water bottle is a squeeze,, :bigthink:

WOOT!! :biggrin2:

:bigthink:
Does Cad have a deal with Amazon for pushing these ?? lol

The one from Amazon would work for me if it had a slot for a coffee cup handle, I'll have to go for the ram mount cup holder they make really good products but a little pricey
