Was browsing some videos and came across this, it may not be a true IH Cub, but I have to give it to this guy; managing to combine 2 snow blowers into/onto one Cub, impressive.

This video demonstrates the need for a cab/windbreaker

Nice redneck engineering

I got a brand new set of Titan TruPowers today. 6-12's. I may load them up with fluid and try them in the snow before I go with the chains. I have the turfs with chains but it be nice if it worked out and I didn't have to change tires every fall.

Just want you to know that I am holding you responsible for the cold crappy weather. You got the snow Gods PO'd with this thread.

Haha. Well aside from the 1/4" we got here yesterday my wish has not been granted.

AG tires do make a great imprint in the snow....

Default Snow is here,..........

Might have to fire the 71 up ! Snow has been falling, and is continuing. I'd estimate we have 4" already. Though the snow has been small size, the length of time falling has made accumulation possible. Weather said will continue until Thanksgiving Day.

This is a time where I would adjust the blade shoes down two inches, or lock in the lowest position above ground, because the gravel drive is not frozen. Once that happens, I drop and float the blade. That's one thing I don't miss about having a guy push the drive is all the gravel I clean up in the grass in the spring. Granted, I can make a good mess with the IH, but can control the outcome more so. The IH just does a great job here keeping the drive clear!

I was wondering about this too. I have turfs (8.50) with chains that I put on for the snow, and have zero problems with spinning, but do have 10.50 ags with weights that I use in summer. Most of my snow plowing is on the asphalt street, or on concrete.

What kind of luck do you guys have plowing snow on these surfaces with ags & weights with no chains?

Thanks, Josh

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.
