Default Original frame question?
Did most "O"s have a hole in the frame for the creeper lever?

Thanks. My '61 has no hole. I picked up the creeper but really don't want to cut my frame.

I believe they started putting the hole in from the factory after they changed over the spindles and put the slot in the dash. I would love to have one of those. Luck just never seems to find me in this dept.

I picked up a pretty junky one a few weeks ago, serial #28916, it has the moon in the dash tower but no hole in the frame.

Not at all sure what that means, but with the age of these tractors and probably having had multiple owners over the years, the only thing I can guarantee is that the reduction housing was stamped while on a tractor that was assembled in April of 1962.

Some Monday in '61 or '62, the line foreman told the crew to start putting the slot hole in the frame.

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.
