Rear lift for sleeve hitch for wide frame 1872 or 1863

[1811woody]

Any body got one for sale?

CCC never made one. You can prolly cobble one together if you have the skills.They went to a cat 0 3 point lift.

Thanks, That would explain why I can't find one then, Any Idea what one would be close as far as the upper bracket and rocker? I suppose a 982?

The sleeve hitch was never an option on the SGT's. You can run an A frame adapter on the rear cat 0 lift if you want to use sleeve hitch attachments. As Lew said, you can probably build one from an older wide frame sleeve hitch. I have a friend that puts sleeve hitch's on his supers because he only has sleeve hitch attachments so it can be done.

Cyclops GT's (1863) The rear sleeve hitch was never made for these either because the cyclops machines all had the rear plate on the back of the frame. The cat 0 hitch was also the only option on these just like the SGT's.

Thanks for the info Oak, and thanks for getting rid of the double post I wasn't able to. I started out with sleeve hitch ground engaging attachments before I started out with cubs thats the reason I was sticking with cub version of the lift, I don't want to go to the full blown cat 0 hitch I just can't justify the cost, unless I can find a used one. . Is your friend that does his own version of the rear lift on OCC ? I would like to see what he uses for the pieces.

Well You could Invest In this aftermarket Cat 0 hitch http://www.xtrememotorworks.com/3-Po...Cub-Cadet.html and then add one of these Cat 0 A Frame adapter http://www.xtrememotorworks.com/A-Frames.html When I Bought My White GT2055 in 1999 Brinly use to Make the HH1000 which is a Cat 0 A frame adapter and I still used sleeve Hitch Implements On My Cat 0. I have a Cat 1 adapter and still use Sleeve Hitch On My limited Cat 1 3 point Hitches as well.

BTW Member https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/member.php?u=8310 actually makes a carbon copy of the The Original Cat 0 for the SGT's

I bought the Xtreme 82 Series Cub Cadet - Modified Kit for use On My Cub Cadet 2182 so I could adapt it to a Limited Cat 1 Hitch besides a Cat 0.
So really no need to Get Cat 0 Implements when sleeve Hitch will work On a Cat 0 3 point hitch with an A frame Cat0 to sleeve Hitch adapter

Thanks Sergeant, I did look at those options but as I can't justify the cost unless I come across a used one.

1811woody I made one for my 1811. I had to fab the upper casting mount. Lift bar I just made it to length. Lower bracket was made with extension on the side to go it the axle bolts. It’s been 10 years and going strong.

[1811woody]

I didn't want to reinvent the wheel if I can find a wide frame set up for the right price I'll go with it if not I guess I'll fab my own as well. I've seen some pics on Google that look good and I know extreme has the lower bracket with the extended "ears" for the aluminum rear-end for a decent price.. Do you have pics of yours?
