Cat 0 box blade
Well, I made my own box blade. I traded for some 3/8" diamond plate for
the box. It's a little heavier than needed but that was all I could find. It weighs in at 188lbs right now. After I add a cutting edge to the front and back it will be more like 210lbs. I'm looking for some 12 or 14" pipe 1/4" thick to make them out of. It ended up being 46" wide. I made the scarifiers from 1/2" x 2" flat bar that I have laying around. They are adjustable and can be raised up and out of the way with out having to flip them over. I have only tried it out once, it's been way to wet here to do anything lately. I did flatten out a couple of dirt piles or should I say mud piles. I don't have enough traction yet to do much, but I think with enough traction it will work out ok. I'm working on weights for the front and some wheel weights. test fitting the draw bar  all welded up  scarifiers made, may add some wider cutting teeth to them if they don't get the job done   on the 189, I'm only getting about 12" of lift after adusting the lift arms. Not sure what to do about that yet.

If you need more lift, Fab some longer arms from a set of spares. I had the same problem on my little import tractor. Cut up two spent mower blades and that added about 7 inches to the middle of the lift arms. Game me about 10 extra inches of travel... Its worth a thought

Looks good. I would suggest hard facing the teeth on those shanks. As well as the bottom of the box itself. It will hold up allot better. Hard facing rod for a stick welder is available at tsc. Good fab work. I really like that 189

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.
