Default trencher on a cub
Has anyone ever seen here ever seen or heard of a trencher mounted to a cub?Ive been pondering this for a while and have been gathering up the pieces to maybe start this project.I have a vermeer v1150 walk behind with a bad engine here that I could use for the build.I also just picked up a 102 with a creeper or a 129 hydro I could use for the tractor.This whole idea is just in the pondering stage so theres lots to work out.I would have to fab a carrier for it to mount on the rear of the cub.The hydraulics would be another issue pump mounts and valve bodies to figure out as well.Weight would be another issue needing to keep it down.I dont think it would weigh anymore than a tiller depending on how much the mount would weigh.Well with that let me know what you guys think...

i think that if you ever fab it up, and get everything finished, you can make some money at my house. but seriously, i have never heard of a trencher on the back of a cub, but that shouldn't stop you. good luck

Go to kaufmancadets.webs.com then click on "brochures" scroll down and you should see a brochure on a trencher.

I think I would try to do things a little different....Pump and tank would be under the hood altho from the looks of that the hydraulics engage with the pto lever.I would really like to get a look at the back to see how they mounted it..

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.
