Default Lift Block for NF

This is an original that I would be using as a pattern.

I have been looking around and have noticed that they are not making them anymore. I have also seen that they are going for a bit used on ebay. I was wondering if any one would be interested in them if I could make some new reproductions? I don't want to take the time to design and build them if no one is interested in them thou. If I do make some I would not sell them until I have tested them on my own Cub Cadets 100/104.

Thats the rockshaft for the sleeve hitch on the narrow frame tractors. Any idea on cost for them if you make them? I have a narrow frame 123 hydro and would love to put the sleeve hitch on it, just hard to find a good setup used for a fair price, and they don't make them new that i'm aware of.

I think the "purists" want the factory stuff and will pay for it so their restoration is "correct".

I fabricated mine from tubing and bar, I think it is stronger than the CI factory version.

Mine is a user machine, function before beauty.

Nice job CADplans.
Your hitch looks as good as it functions. I am a great fan of well made fabrications where parts are too costly or no longer available. (i.e. I wasn't going to pay $40+shipping for a spring assist bracket when I can make it for less than $2)
Do you plan to post a drawing of you contraption?

Regards, Guido

I have so many of these fabrications that if I were to post all the drawings, I would never get away from the computer to fab more!!

The design is so simple, once you go to the shop and start fabing, it just goes together!! Give it a try!!

CADplans,
You and me both. It's the curse of the machinist. Upon closser look, your design won't fit my narrow frame 127. But your hitch confirms my thoughts that it can be done.

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.
