Here is my 200 lb weight box as also posted in the "Let's see your IH cubs!" section. Cost $9 in Sakcrete, and random parts in my garage. I have a 1/2 inch bolt that goes into the hitch and sticks 3 inches into the concrete, then I used old hanger wire to ties all of my bolts together, it acts like rebar in concrete. Then, the angle iron is attached to the inside of my fender to help old it. I also at the last minute threw in a light duty hitch. Then, I mixed up the Sakcrete and poured it in and let it sit for a week. I can jump up and down on it making the front wheels bounce and nothing has broke. It makes the front end lighter, but I will be using it with a blade on the front anyway for snow. $9 for 200 lb of weight is the best price per weight I could find.

Wow that is a lot of weight.

I was going to build one before the snow flies, I have a lot of old brake rotors kicking around so I might just build something with some small dia tubing sticking up that I can slide the rotors down onto. I am only looking to add 50 to 75lbs. I can imagine needing much more for a thrower on an almost level driveway

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.
