I guess the joke's on me! I didn't think that you'd have snow pics!
The 100 looks kind of naked without the back rest on the seat! I didn't realize how much it added to the looks until just now!

I totally agree, CBH. It's amazing how the backrest made the 100 look much better.

I had a little type o mine is a 1315. they look very similer. I got the motor and chassis service manules shortly after i brought it home. it looks pretty good for a 20 year old machine ,but it defenitly got it's fair share of work by the looks of the mower deck i just took off. 3 of the 4 haning brackets have been replaced with home made ones. A little lovve and some new parts n she 'll b like brand new

Today the paint was dry on my weight bracket,
so I put it back on and added the 3 little weights.
I won't know if #300 is enough till it snows

That's a lot of weight!
You need to put a toilet seat on it, just to top it off! That would look funny! :biggrin2.gif:

Wow! I hope you've got that very securely attached to the frame and rearend in a lot of places...that's A LOT of weight hanging quite a ways out with no bracing. I hope nothing breaks.

Nice weight bracket, ol'George!

Got some seat time today. Had a lot of limbs to pick up, after the storm we had Sunday night. I forgot to take a pic with the cart full, so I got an after pic. There were some gumballs in the cart though!

The fabricated bracket attached to the tractor is angle iron,
being 2 pieces of 3/8 thickness, 4"x6"x 10" long.
They are welded together to make a "C" shape which snugly slips on either side of the tractor frame.
It attaches to the frame with the existing 3/8" bolt holes on the frame sides, below the sleeve hitch piviot, it also attaches to the lower sleeve hitch "U" brackets 1/2" holes on the Differential housing
That gives me 4, 3/8" bolts and 2, 1/2" bolts in a shear configeration.

Welded to that, and protruding out 24" is a 1/4" thick 4"x8" piece of truck frame,that the weights sit on.
The fabrication is brutally strong and it ties the dif. casting & tractor Frame together.

As I see the leverage effect, the weight is pulling the frame rearward & downward and pushing the diff.casting foreward.
Without the QA42 attached I'd say there is maybe #100 +_ on the front axle.

ol'George, considering that you are using a blower, that should be plenty of weight. The drive tires do not have to work as hard as pushing snow.

I have a 200 lb concrete weight hanging off the back of my Cub as well (although not as pretty), and it works pretty good. Between washer fluid filled tires and chains, it pushes snow pretty good. I pulled my wife and daughter on a sled in about 10 inches of snow in the yard, and it would slip a little, but never spin 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.
