Found a hitch ball to fit
The hole in the back of the lawn tractors requires a 5/8" shank hitch ball to fit(without drilling or adding metal, etc). The problem is most hitch balls have 3/4-1" shank.
Tractor Supply carries a 5/8" shanked hitch ball for garden tractors. It is a little expensive but when it's all you can find...........

The metal on the new tractors can't take that......too thin. And here's the reason. They build in a flange for a little support. Drilling would take this out and you'd be pulling on that thin metal then. And I don't want to weld anything stronger to it so as to make it look bad for future sale.

1-7/8"
Will work with 2" receivers then since you aren't loading and pulling under extreme conditions.

Well, possibly. But I am always thinking of what I do to my vehicles will effect the eventual sale of them.
All my dirt bikes I put back to as close to stock condition as possible before selling them. But I am thinking of restoring the 1872, yes.

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.
