not cub, but...
just picked up a 64' simplicity Broadmoor for my boy. It's in fantastic shape, even has all the hub caps!
Question is, if anyone knows; next to the gear shift, is a slot with a sticker that says "HI/LO". Don't see a lever, or even an extra pulley...so why have the sticker??? unless something was there.. Anybody know?

Creeper gear was an option, just like on Cubs. It is possible it was removed at one point. Or the decals were installed factory in case they ever got a creeper. Or a restorer installed every decal in his new decal kit.
The old Simplicities are a great little tractor in their own right. Not quite a Cub Cadet but still worthy. For a definitive answer, go to www.simpletractors.com

been there, can't find a thing. Today, we gunked it down, pwr washed it..as well as all the other machines....my son had the nozzle in the muffler of my scag for awhile while when I wasn't looking!!! I blew a gasket, but it started right up....just alot of steam
 Anyways, this simplicity is in great shape...runs like a top (after new plug,filter, clean the gas tank,clen the carb,new batt, new ignition(no keys) ).

Nice score. I had one a few years back, only mine was a Wards Squire 6. Same thing, Simplicity built them for Wards and painted them that gold color that Wards used. As for the Hi/Lo hole, from my understanding that fender pan was the same for all tractors made in that lineup. Mine had one thing that was unique, it had a hole in the side of the hood for the pull start cord to come through.
Traded it for some work.  They are neat how the frame flexes in the middle. Takes a bit to get used to at first. Those seat pans are nice too. Mich60

mine has the oval hole for the pull cord also.
I've had it running, but have to keep readjusting the carb...fuel just keeps leaking down into the throttle bore @#$%$!!! I can't figure it out.....needle and seat good, reset the float several times....still just drips. it's pissing me off!!!

eastonct124,
Simplicities are great little machines. I had a Simlicity 7016 some years ago, and never had any trouble with it. The Briggs in it wasn't my favorite, but it cut very well, and had full length rollers on the rear of the deck...striped the lawn very nice!  Jeff (teet)

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.
