Found me a tiller
 

It's not cub cadet but I feel like it will almost suit me better being much easier to hook and unhook from. Guy told me to bring my Cub and till some dirt before I paid for it. Going Friday after work to pick it up!

I have one question regarding this tiller, can I safely pick it up using my sleeve hitch manually? I have a single gang disc now with two 12" pieces of rail road iron on it and I almost feel like I could break something the way it bounces when lifted. Best I can figure it might weight around 100lbs and ive heard a cub tiller weights in at around 200lbs so should I be worried?

Congrats! You might need to add spring assist or hydraulic/electric lift.

Good score on your tiller!

Looks great I would love to find one of those

far as I know 200# is nothing for the steel parts the tiller or any other part hanging off the back would exert on them unless you plan on doing some severious off roading with the weight up in the air or maybe some ramp jumps

Im mostly thinking about the cast lifting arm and the locking pin on the lifting lever. I guess ill just have to see what happens. Thanks for the advice.

If you have a stock brinly setup that will work with no problems.:beer2:

I got a homemade setup out of 3/8 flatbar but if that gives up the ghost im not worried I am concerned about the cub end of the deal.

Unless you made it grossly over sized you will be fine. Having super long lifting pins can break the top casting. The lower bracket will hold up.
