Good grief! They really added some interesting stuff to that machine.

We have an old guy that's a customer a the shop and he had me screw 6" wide rubber all the way around his fenderwells on his explorer to help keep salt off the body, it's the ugliest thing you've ever seen.

Off the body? Usually it's under the vehicle where all the problems stem from. The body is painted to withstand all that. Some people.

Yea, the rubber sticks out about 5" on each fender. We tried to tell him it wouldn't help and that all the extra holes we would drill would only hurt but he didn't want to listen.

Duals, I sorta like them on my 122, these are 8.5" wide. 10.5"wide get to be too wide for my liking. I have a set of the spacers from like the plastic ones with long carriage bolts in the Ebay link

One bad thing about them Tim, you have to remember there there. I almost tore my daughters new Dodge up going past it the other day.

Like in Ronnie's case, I'm not sure he really "needs" them to pull a plugger. But since he already has them it's alright.

I have a set. Used them on the 125 while doing dirt work with the tractor making a water way in someones yard. I was on a slope and it gave me more traction and stability. I hope to have a rear implement wide enough to be able to use them again.

Lance, those are 8.50's.
Jonathon is 100% correct. I would have never bought them, but in my case they were already there.

And I think he is right?

I kinda like them also.
Mostly, like Jon said, implements arent even the width of the duals let alone wider so it looks out of line for what farmers are used to seeing. But in areas where you want to lessen the ground pressure, gain traction, and side to side stability, they are very nice.

I like the look of that. Nice and close to the tractor. Would you still be able to run fenders with the inner wheel turned backwards?
I do not know Lance. Sorry, I have nothing to compare it to so I do not know about the measurements. I am not a fan of the fenders on an O, myself because of the flat pan mount on them. I like the more conforming look on the 100's and 7*'s models.

Sure doesn't look like fenders would work on that but I may be wrong

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.
