Rockshaft mounted in bearings? Raised fenders for clearance? This is getting real entertaining! Build away, we are watching!
I got to ask, you design ahead of time or just get a general idea in your head and go to the shop and see what happens? Nothing wrong with either method, just seeing how you design your projects.

Yea, the bushing design cub came up with works, but I figure it will help reduce friction and get more lift force to the lift arms.

Fenders are mainly for the 26" tires, but I have a few other things that the added space may come in handy for. It's a little too tall at the moment, but the 3pt will work without the spacers .

Far as the design, I had an idea before starting. I just took what I felt were the best features of the existing GT and Sgt hitches, incorporated Sam's design for extra frame stability, along with my proven designs and many new ideas... Basically had an idea of what I wanted the hitch to have, but I'm flying by my shorts far as the build goes.

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.
