Default pros/cons 12 inch plow versus a 10 inch plow

just like the title says....

running on a 149 with ags..


i picked up a pretty nice plow at the tractor show in NC this weekend... im pretty sure it measured as a 10 inch but man it looks big!

is the 149 powerful enough to pull a 12 inch ?

if any one was wondering I picked the plow up for $80 bucks. seemed pretty fair..

Nice find on the plow....that's a great price!!





Looks like a 12" to me, by the shape of the moldboard......does it have a brace on the back from the land slide to the moldboard?



And your 149 should have no problem pulling a 12".....with enough traction.

My bad.......





The reason I say the moldboard looks like a 12" is because my 12" moldboard has a kind of square edge like yours (circled in red)...and the two 10" plows I've had are more rounded.

You have a 12 then. I have two 12's and most times I don't have a problem, but depending on soil condition, traction and drtup of the plow you could have problems.

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.
