that pic shows 200#s. that'll be split between the rear tires along with another 30#s of steel per tire. the smaller weights will bolt to the inside of the rim, three 10# barbell weights then the larger cast weights will sit on the outside of the rim. i'm thinking about filling the tires with rimguard, and I have 100# of suitcase weights to hang out front! well since you said to, how do you know?

Had it on the lift in the shop, and leaned against it, and over it went...
This spring the wife was sweeping the lawn, and was on the slightest of slopes and tipped it over onto it's side. Didn't get pictures of that one. Only thing hurt was her pride..

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.
