Default Fabrication

Does anyone have any experience fabricating a narrow frame hydraulic lift handle? I need one, and they are pretty expensive, so if anyone has made one, or has dimensions; please post them. Thanks

I had mine rewelded. I thined the bracket up to allow a larger weld and took the grinder to it to put a raidus instead of the corners of the stock design. Where they put that flat spot on it really weakens them. If the spring is broken inside that makes you work the handle more and leads to breakage.

CCspecities has them for $68.

I made one for mine, if you have a metal torch or forage and a die it quite easy. I took some round rod, flatten one end and make a hole in it where it hooks on rod that comes off the valve ( at this point be sure this little rod is straight up and down) and mark your Handel just past where the pivot bolt will go( toward the back of the tractor) this is where you will make your first bend, then heat it and flatten it to fit the bracket . At this point you can make the outward bend and cut it to the length you want( I made mine a little longer so I can reach it easier) take a die to the top and put on a knob( one off a sears suburban works great). Maybe I can get you some measurements later.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
