Yesterday, I ordered a CAT 0 hitch and A frame sleeve hitch adaptor from Xtreme Motorworks for the smoker!


A little pricey, but will be well worth it!








Hope to get some more seat time while mowing tomorrow.....Will try to get some pictures...

I was thinking about an EM 3pt and one of those dirt claws he makes today. I was using the 1872 for a baby bulldozer today with the Haban blade on it. Quick way to tell the difference between a Lawn tractor and a REAL GT. With the filled AGs and that heavy Haban blade it will move some dirt. Sorry no pics as no one was around but me to take them and I was working!

I wanted to do a little driveway clean up before I took the blade and cab off. Pushing snow always rearranges the gravel and I wanted to level things back out. I worked on that for a while along with cutting down the center ridge. The hydraulics sure make controlling the blade easier. It does a nice job of smoothing in reverse if you drag the blade backwards. Cut going forward and smooth in reverese. The job turned out real nice.

There is a mess place in the backyard where I have piled rocks in a pile and dirt in quite a few small piles. The weeds and honeysuckle had turned it into a thicket and the dirt mounds had become solid over time. After doing the driveway and on my way to drop the blade under the deck I said "why not" I was feeling good and had gotten the hang of the blade. So I went at it slowly and just scraped the brush off the mounds roots and all. I was surprised how well it did so I kept slowly cutting down the mounds. I tripped the blade a lot as I only had 2 of the 4 springs on it for snow plowing. Probably a good thing to keep me from breaking something. That heavy blade cut in hard and stopped the tractor a few times tripping the blade. But lift and back a little and keep on going. I did a fair job of the rough leveling of this area. Before i go any farther I have to move my rock pile. They are for a stone wall project. I moved some serious dirt today that would have laughed at a smaller tractor and blade. I was having a good time and got carried away and did a lot more than I had planned. I was pretty impressed with my Super!

It has me wanting to get another project going. I have a dirt scoop for my old MTD GT that I want to make a mount so I can put it on the Super like any other cub attachment would. I'd like to get rid of the hand controlled manual lift lever arms on it and use the rock shaft arm to lift it and the angle cylinder off the Haban blade to dump it. A fellow on another forum has done similar. I have a few other things to get out of the way 1st. Maybe I'll get to it this summer. Here are pics of the dump bucket.



I got the blade dropped and tomorrow off comes the cab and on goes the mower deck.

Nice pics guys!
I plowed my garden with my green with the riged sleeve hitch since the 128 is still out of action.I have to go up to Cubcrazy's to get my parts! I have a little path in my field that I'm going to sink the plow in ground since the rebuild.

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.
