Are your rear tires loaded? Do you have wheel weights? Turf tires or ags? Grass field, gravel driveway, paved driveway? Flat, smooth, rough, hills? All of these will make a difference in traction.
I don't think that there is a magic number as to how much it can pull. Way too many variables involved with regards to tractor options and terrain conditions.

What a bunch of fuss!
You can pull all the weight you have traction for. I pulled a bigger single axle trailer piled high with good old Wisconsin hardwood, with tire chains on my 1450, no issues! More tongue weight means more traction. Remember we ARE talking vintage Cubs, you have plenty of frame and overall substance to pull your load and more! What you can't do is "pop" against a static load, like skidding a log. That WILL stress out your bolts on your hitch\tranny cover. |

Why not make something like this. It's attached to the frame and you don't have to worry about stress on tranny cover bolts.
WHitch1.jpg you can even add suitcase weights.

Towing isn't a problem. Stopping or turning can be a serious problem.

This and it isnt usually a gradually applied load that will break a bolt (or worse the cast case) it is the shock load of hitting a bump...think of striking a chisel. I am a little surpised how many of you guys are using hitch setups that put so much leverage on the tractor. the ball should be as close to the rearend as possible, and a safe bet is if you cant lift the traler on/off the ball yourself, it is too much weight on the rearend. Of course you CAN sit 1000 lbs on the rearend and it will move it, but it is not good for the axletubes, where the casing (especially where the bolts are threaded in), or the bearings. It just isnt a good idea to make a habit of it, especially if it is not on smooth level ground. |

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.
