I've used it a couple times and so far I'm very happy with it. Just my 2 cents but I think it is worth looking at. It could also be set up to pull on the factory lift with not to much work.

Sam,
Read the thread from start to finish. Great work on your Cub. Good ideas in various areas. The electric winch looks real nice. Thanks for all the pictures. I think it turned out real well and you spent a lot of time on it!
Regards,
Chris

Thanks for the comments guys. It was a fun build. It may get a set of wheels and tires of a Super. Thinking with the larger tires, filled and some wheel weights it should have enough grip to get the job done. Or break something expensive.

Just found and read this thread through, with great enjoyment. Being an engineer (cobbler) at heart, This dinged my bell. Detroit, nor Louisville, ever built anything, exactly as I would have, because, they did not ask me first! Hope to begin some "upgrades" to my 149, this winter.

Thanks, for the running commentary and pictures, on the build. Would be great, to have a update, long term evaluation, of the finished tractor.

About the only thing I've changed on it was to add a set of wheel weights. I plowed with it a while ago, it did a great job. The winch for the hitch works outstanding. It's one of those things that will get very little use. It and the 149 are only for plowing and tilling the garden. Most normal people have attachments for there tractors, I have tractors for the attachments. But then again I'm not normal.

Thanks for the update.

I have an old Murray for mowing, and the 149 does the blade and pulling duties.

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.
