Default Wildhare Mfg front end loader conversion?
I came across a web site for the ground hog front end loader. These are made for a atv but I suppose they could be modified for a cub. Has anyone does this or looked into them?

I watched their video, interesting. One thing it's only rated to lift 300lbs max. Looks a little on the light side to me.

Yes it is on the light side but what other options are available for a garden tractor? ( other then building your own)

Hmm the kwikway is only rated at 350...i imaging the only real difference is the way it mounts.... if it could be had cheaply enough i would imagin itd be a pretty simple conversion

Cheap? Anything but. The one I mentioned was about $3500. More then I want to spend for a garden tractor.

I could justify that price but I have yet to find on being offered for that price around here. I had to settle on a johnny bucket for my super. Don't get my wrong its nice but it doesn't have the advantages of a frontend loader.

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.
