I haven't used them yet, but it was a direct replacement. They were designed for the polaris 2 seater atv with blades much larger than the 42 on the cubs. And they are supposed to be hardened steel. They should last a long time since they also spread the blade weight out over a larger area vs the factory cub shoes. I bought mine locally to save shipping. You might be able to find them online with free shipping too.

Thanks for this. They are $25+ (for 1) from CC. (but at least they aren't NLA)

I've got mine mounted and have used them once. They are a lot better then what was on there, I just had flat shoes as you know don't work well in gravel. The new ones overall seem to be pretty stout and did a good job. The only thing I thought may be an issue was if you have it adjusted so there are a lot of threads hanging out on the shoe side of your bracket then theres a potential for them to get bent? I say that because theres only a half inch bolt that I think may bend if you catch something solid.

I would think that they would work pretty good because of their size. If the exposed shaft causes a problem then shim the shaft with large washers.

I just bought a set of the polaris ATV shoes for a new 42 inch blade I just picked up. Dropped the blade off at the sandblast shop this morning. Should get it back in a week or two, primed and ready for IH white paint.

bumping this thread because I bought some today.

I found a Polaris dealer local and called them about the parts. They were able to order some for me. At 15 dollars a piece, (they come as a pair) I thought they were a bit pricey. They do look like they are going to work better than the worn out originals. I'll get them mounted and probably painted up to blend in better.

this is what happens when I try to support the local businesses. At least I know returns will be easier if need be; I can just drive 10 min. to the place.

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.
