Can this be done?
I was thinking the other night, since I have a snow blower, my push blade is almost useless to me. How hard do you guys think it wold be to convert a push blade to a rear blade? I haven't seen one for sale in this area, so I am thinking of making my own.

I don't see why you couldn't make a sleeve hitch version using the original front blade, altho it might be cheaper/easier to sell the front blade and build it from scratch or a brand X blade... One thing you will notice when comparing front blades with back blades is the back ones are shorter height.
I kinda have the same idea down here in Texas a front blade isn't very useful but a good back blade setup might work well for dirt moving...

I bought one that someone had made up like that, I only wanted if for the blade, it's too tall and pretty much usless as the sub frame has to go up from behind and down in front to your hitch height......ain't worth the effort.

I picked up an old craftsman blade last year from a yard sale for $10...it was missing the subframe, but I had different intentions anyway. I haven't gotten to it yet, but I plan to cut it down in height, and turn it into a back blade as well. If I were you I'd try to find a cheap off brand blade and hold onto the IH one. You never know when you might want to use it as a dozer blade....

The front blades are about 16" tall and my rear blade is about 10" tall so yes, you'd probably need to cut down the blade to make it work right as a rear blade.

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.
