While I grew up around several of them, and spent time with my dad when he restored his 1947 low serial Cub, I was young so I didn't pick up everything I could have

That being said, I do know when they were first introduced in 1947, hydraulic lift was not an option. Instead, it was a manual lift with spring assist and a rear ballast. I'm not sure what year hydraulics were introduced, but they did discontinue using that grill style in 1954, if memory serves. So that there Cub is somewhere between 1949?-1954.
