Me too...those fenders are too nice to cut! How is notching the fenders easier than drilling a hole in the lift bar?

The fender is pretty beat. The rear lights have been smashed and dents have followed them. I am by no means a purist and don't think a small notch will make the tractor look bad. I got this tractor to use as a work machine so I will not be attending any tractor shows with it. I need to spend my money on other things for the tractor so this is the least of my worrys. I am already impressed with the tractor and the power that it has. I plan on keeping it for a long time.

I am with everyone else....DON'T NOTCH THE FENDER!!! You will kick yourself all the way to the road the next day! It doesn't matter if you have a 100% work tractor....you will regret it later. Just because it is a work horse doesnt' mean you can't take the time to drill the hole, I am sure you have access to a drill press to bore it out a little shorter. In order to notch the fender you need to get a sawsall in there or heaven forbid take a hammer and beat the crap out of it to bend it........that will be NASTY!!

Not a wise choice...the tractor didn't do anything wrong to deserve it...

Just another vote to NOT notch the fender. Workhorse or no, it looks like a nice example of an IH Cub. If I could get me hands 'round the necks of all those mad scientists who hacked up Willys Jeeps over the years.......

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.
