Nice pictures 02dmaxx,
But i got to ask how did you make those front tri-ribs? I have a set that look just like those. I was looking at them last friday and thinking if i could just get those to rows of tread out of there they would look pretty good.

Well,it was quite easy,but made one HE!! of a mess! I first cut the two rows of tread down close to the tire (with a razor),of course not too close or you will go through. That was time consuming. Next,be in a WELL VENTILATED area and put the 'ol 4" grinder to 'em. I used those neat little disc that look like pieces of stacked sand paper,they work great.

Make sure you wear eye protection! Molten rubber in the eye hurts! And a cheap dust mask will make it a better experience too.

Thanks. I think it's too tall though. Might take about 3" out of the height.

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.
