Default Built a rear carry all
Don't know what else to call it, so carry all it is.
Had some pieces of iron and figured I would build something for a narrow frame tractor. Attaches under the axle tubes then flat stock on top with two 3/8" bolts on both sides to hold it there. And two quick pins through the bottom of the lower 3pt hitch.
Then made a frame for the platform that measures 3ft wide and 18" deep out of angle iron and box tubing with the holes. (forget the name of it)
The platform slides in the main frame and also attaches with quick pins. Just need to sandblast the platform frame and paint it, then cut some treated plywood for the deck.
It was a fun project.

I could really use it here lately.

Looks great Todd! I built something similar to that when I was a kid, (It didn't look any where near as nice as yours!) that I used to haul my weed eater and gas when I was mowing yards. Great build!

So what you saying, looks like it was built by a kid? Well I'll tell you what..... Just kidding. There's some tuning to be done yet, but for what I have into it, it'll work out ok.

Thanks guys

Good idea and good work on the project. I could see a bunch of uses for a platform like that. It will be more versatile than a weight box but could be used as one.

My buddy that I picked up the 122 earlier this year already has his eyes on it and my push blade for doing his driveway in town. He thought it would be good to add weight for plowing.

Well I guess this project is complete.
Had some rough sawn lumber and used it instead of plywood, even has the grub holes (gives it that aged look)
Painted the iron with some almond color Rustoleum paint and stained the wood dark walnut color.
We'll probably find some uses for the "carry all". Seeing the 123 is in the shop thought I would do some work on it to, literally. Fletched up some arrows

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.
