Mounting suite case weights
Hi All
Getting to be that time of year again here in PA to start looking toward snow removal. I just received a set of 4 older suite case weights and would like to mount them to the rear of a 129. They are 55 lbs each and was thinking 2 would be enough but not sure of that also I am going to try my first set of rubber tire chains also as to not scratch up the driveway when blowing this years snow. I'm not sure on how or where to mount these weights. i was looking tonight and was thinking of taking some angle steel from the seat mount back and make a cross brace to hang the weights from if this make sense.just wasn't sure if the sheet metal of the rear fender area would support it once i get a photo host that works for me i will post pics of my ideas. But in the mean time i figured someone out there has mounted weight to the rear of their cub and was hoping someone could post their ideas. Thank you Tony

I made this bracket to go on the back of 125. It mounts to the bracket for the Trac Vac
 I have steel plates to go in it  I really don't worry about chain marks ( click for large view)  I don't use the steel plates anymore as wheel weights are easier on wheel bearings. ( weights hanging on the back are better than none )

I made a bracket that holds 2 solid cinder blocks on the back of my 1450 for throwing snow. It sits on the hitch plate and is held up by 2 rear cover bolts ( 5 bolts total counting the hitch plate). They add about 100lbs to the back of the tractor, it is plenty to keep me from spinning chains on my new relatively flat driveway.
IMG_0929.jpg IMG_0928.jpg IMG_0356.jpg The driveway has been repaved since this picture but I still use chains, with the weight I don't spin tires and leave maybe 3 marks in a season. Here is a homemade bracket on a 125, I would use the axle tube mounts like he did. I would also grab 2 rear cover bolts so it looks like a capitol A (block lettering) with the legs bolting to the axle tube. http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=35539 Bill

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.
