Default Question to all: If you could have any implement.....

So, you just can't find that implement you want. Either they are rare as hens teeth, or you can't afford one, or they just don't make what you want. Maybe your not a fabricator and wish you could make one. What implement or implements would you buy if you could? Could be anything... a loader. Maybe a PTO driven manure spreader to run off that 540 PTO on your 123 (or whatever model you have). Maybe a chisel plow, or a rear 3pt mounted sickle mower ran off the rear PTO. Maybe you want a rear sleeve hitch IH blade but can't find one. Would you buy a reproduction one if you could? I'm curious what interests are out there and for what. Lets leave off mower decks, snowblowers and tillers because lets face it, those are easy to get. Even if you don't live in a Cub rich area, those are all out there all over the place for sale. I'm talking about things you just can't find anywhere, or only come up for sale 3 or 4 times a year, or like I said, they just didn't make at all. When you list them, state whether you would take a reproduction one if it was available.

I'll start.

I can build anything I want, if I wasn't so busy, LOL. But I want a loader for an SGT, a PTO driven manure spreader, a Cat 0 chisel plow, a wheel disk (not 3pt, a pull type that lifts up hydraulically). I'd like to have a rear box and standard blade, and a dirt scoop. With the exception of the pull disk, chisel and PTO driven manure spreader, all the rest can be purchased. (They do make ground driven manure spreaders for GT's.) I keep working plans over in my head for the manure spreader. Just for the record, I have a big compost pile, and want to be able to spread it on the garden in the fall.... not by hand, or with a big spreader.

So, what would you have that you just can't find, or would buy a reproduction of?

I'd love to have a loader... for any of my cubs!

I have a loader on a 3000 Ford that is very handy but there are times it's just a wee bit big to get in certain spots!

Probably a sweeper. Would be nice too sweep a light dusting or couple inches of snow off the driveway, instead of not doing it or using a blade!

Fun question J-Mech.
  1. Definitely a sweeper. I think it would be very useful for snow clearing. Particularly on uneven sidewalks.
  2. Another idea I've wanted to look into is a cub mounted ice resurfacer to resurface the local outdoor hockey rink. It would need to be rear mounted and have the ability to shave the ice, collect the shavings, and lay down water to create a new surface. Just like the Zamboni at hockey games. I think that could be a useful implement for anyone with their own rink or who maintains a community rink.

My all-time wish list:

1. # 40 IH box scraper, Here, I'd settle for a stronger, reproduction as well!

2. A Generac alternator

I'm humble, so I'll keep my list low, Ha!

However, I never yet seen a nice tractor restored with a Hudson rear mount sprayer!

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.
