Default 6x4 Extension Contraption
Absolutely sick of getting stuck in the snow I came up with this dooms day machine. Let me know what you guys think. A dumping bed will most likely be in the near future if this does prove worthy.

It looks like the shifter is still on the second rear end?

too bad your front drive tractor doesn't have a rear PTO...then you could somehow make a way to connect the shaft on the front of the rear transmission to connect to the PTO on the tractor's transmission. the pto spins the same as the engine, so itd be true four wheel drive with a flick of a lever.

I like the concept. If there is not a provision for the axles to rock over terrain, then tracks would be in order. A split brake would be a good idea too.

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.
