Default Sleeve Hitch Tool Bar Build

The idea of fabbing up a tool bar finally percolated to the surface and into action. Some of the build is a bit overkill, but I use what I have. Some scrounging, cutting, drilling and welding yielded what I think will be a useful tool for both the MF10 and the much heavier and tougher Cub 149.

It mounts on the sleeve hitch in typical fashion. The bar will swivel on a center pivot bolt and can be stopped in several positions to adjust tool angle. It’s also welded offset on the bracket so flipping the whole thing 180 raises or lowers it a difference of two inches.

Next I have to make a hilling attachment and a blade to furrow for planting potatoes.

Now I can start planning out some implements to mount on the bar. I also made a little hitch that bolts on with the tension bolt holes in the sleeve hitch. Ball or pin connection.

If anybody has any tool bar gardening attachments they’d recommend, I’d be happy to see them posted here.

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.
