Default Loader, plow/dozer
I had a snow plow I made up a few years ago for my loader. Well, it was time for a re-design. I got the band saw out and chopped it down 17". The way I had it, the blade was too far forward and it caused the front to slide over to the side it was angled. So after some fab work, and some welding, this is what I came up with. The first pic is it in snow plow mode, allowing the springs to function. The second pic is it in dozer mode locking the blade solid. So far so good. Next up is hydraulic angling.

Wow--that's impressive!! Job well done. Do you know what the weight limits are for it? Looks like it is heavy duty enough to handle most outside chores that you would ask of it. How long did that take you to make? ......Wish I had your skills to fabricate something like that for one of my cubs.

We did that to one of our big tractors on the farm. Probably one of the most handy things we built. Great for dirt work! Didn't use ours for snow. We had a big snowblower.

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.
