that looks like it does on the bigger tractor loaders . I have one concern about your palet forks did you use two motor grader blade bitts for the forks if so you might want to think about using something else them are very brittle and could snap into when lifting something heavy would hate to see that happen and someone get hurt .once again not putting it down you done a great job building it

the forks are made from a cutting edge from a dozer. the edge is hardened steel. thats why i chose to use it. since normal forks are hardened too. i put the forks to the loaders max with no issues. thanks for the concern.

I like it! Looks like a skid steer bucket. You know how they are kind of deep? How was the other bucket that you modified not performing to your expectations?

i could not get the mounts high enough to make the bucket curl up when it was flat on the ground. you can see in the pics of the old bucket the cylinders were bottomed out.

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.
