Default 1450 with hydo hitch in rear, can I get some info?
I just picked up a used 1450 today. I'm wondering what info anyone can provide info about the hitch attached to the tractor. Is it IH OEM or after market? What exactly is it called? What can I do with it? Is it rare? BTW, It runs off the deck lift hydraulics... The person I purchased the tractor from didn't know anything about it and only charged me $25 extra for it over the cost of another used 1450 he had. He buys Cubs, cleans them up and resells them...

Here is the (my) back story, I grew up with a 1200 (Dad bought it in '75)and have recently moved to a property where I need a garden tractor. Not being willing to spend the $$$ for a new "tractor" (how do they even call 'em that anymore?)I picked up a very beat up 1650 earlier this week and it turns out it will be a full restoration project. (My first) So I went out today and picked up the 1450 today for grass mowing duty while taking my time with the 1650 as what I "needed" was a tractor that could cut (which turned out to be 1450) and what I'd wanted was a tractor I could rebuild (turned out to be the 1650) The 1450 is in much better shape than the 1650 and I was able to get everything mowed once I got it home

Thanks for any insight on the hitch.

-Calvin

Does your lift look something like this?


Or if you have the sleeve hitch adapter it should look something like this


Then you can hook sleeve hitch attachments to it like these.

If you look close at the pics of both, they look very similar, but also different. Would that be due to the fact my tractor is a different version?

Thanks,

All the sleeve adapters posted so far are not Brinly made sleeve hitches. Here are the 3 different styles sleeve hitch adapters that Brinly made.
First style-came on Orcinal Cub Cadets:

2nd style:

3rd style:


The top link on cledford's Cub looks to be home made. Differ wide frame Cubs all use the same factory link.

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.
