The model 1812 also has front ports as standard equipment. The only difference between your 1811, and the 1812, is the front ports.

You can add the front ports to your 1811, if you find somebody parting out any X82 style machine, and get the valve, handle, and lines. Then you have to get the angle cylinder set up for the blade.

If you are really ambitious, you can engineer and build your own set up also.

Yes, the narrower the tire, the less 'flotation' you have. An old set of 8.5" turfs with so-so looking wheels (my turfs are from the early 1970's...and the 1712 was made in 1985) are normally pretty cheap. plus, the 2 link chains are cheaper for the 8.5" wide tire vs the 10.5" tire.

In the spring, I swap the weighted 8.5" turfs and chains, with 10.5" Carlisle Super Lugs
Bill,
Any chance you could take a close-up picture of how the angle cylinder is fitted onto the plow frame? I'm tempted to try rigging my own this summer. Mark

PS. Thinking about making an offer on those red wheels. Can you think of any reason they wouldn't fit as long as the bolt pattern lines up? Thanks Mark

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.
