Remember 99% of the time if something goes wrong, the load move forward! I try to put at least 2 straps on a tractor, one pulling forward, and one pulling back. Also be very carefull of the strap in a position that it will get cut and be cut! I use the large 1 1/2 straps from a local rigging supply house. They sow them right there out of the scrap webbing, and I get them for about 18 bucks a piece with a WORKING LOAOD RATING OF 2700 LBS They make them with all types of ends from hooks, like I have, flat hooks like I have on my semi, and E hooks like for hauling freight in a dry van.

Please think of what and how you have your loads on the trailer. If you think that the brakes, in gear, or a piece of the fron trailer wll hole your tractor in an accedet, you may be surprised.

I dont want to preach, I just want you guys around to plow with and shoot the breeze with, for a long time!

So Duke nice find I wanna see it at plow day this fall, or spring for sure! Ill tell you this if that piece on the pumo is loose, they are hard as hell to find, I know Ive been looking! Marlin has one on his web site thats NOS you may wanna get it if your is loose.
Vince thanks for your input! I had it straped front and back but I used way to small of straps. Once they got wet I was in trouble. I posted pics of it so others could learn from my mistake. I got very lucky!

New straps ratings Got the right straps now! 10,000 breaking point 3,333 normal load weight. I don't want ever want that to happen again!

Looking forward to many more plow days with my plow day friends!

I was thinking of a way to mount the loader on the 2072! I need to sell off some of my other cubs and get a new trailer but the loader is staying put.

I want to be in your club super smoker club!

Duke,
Nice find on the super!! Welcome to the super club! Glad she made it home alright. Pretty scary to look in the rear view mirror and see that. Can't wait to see your pics with it back together with a plow mounted. The ags look tough and mean. Sweet!!!!

I agree with Vince on the straps. I've learned the hard way that sheet metal likes to chew through em.

Keep your eyes peeled for the smoker.

Thanks Josh! I knew I would take some heat for the busted strap but I wanted others to learn from my mistake, so if I have to take some ribbing in the process then so be it. I love the AG's and so want to start plowing with it but going to have to raise some $$ for the plow but it'll be worth it.

Is Duke having a cookout this weekend LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know I meant no harm in what I posted, just a public service anoucment.

You should have seen the way the guys showed up the other day with a big Alice. They had 2 hand held come alongs on it. 1 pulling back and one pulling forward. That thing way rolling around on the trailer like an egg at the waffle house on a Sat morning! All the while they had chains and binders in the bed of the truck!

Oh how they walk amoung us!

Vince I knew you meant no harm and wanted to provide some great safety info. Which is why I posted the pic so no one else would make my mistake and actually lose one off the trailer. I got luckey!

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.
