Default 149 3 point lift ???

I 've ordered or had all the parts to put a 3 point lift on the 149 I just got so I can use it for tilling. I have read Wild Bills "tilling 101" 3 times and figured I would start mounting the lift parts. It was all of 10 seconds before I hit the first road block so I need some experts to advise me.

On my 108 & 129 there is a collar attached to the inside of the frame on both sides. The lift casting fits inbetween them and the pin slides thru the whole assembly. Piece of Cake!! When I go to the 149 it is missing those collars and the holes are the size of a quater while the mounting pin is the size of a dime. Soooo, is this a factory screw up or just a different breed and I need some kind of bracket that I'm missing.

I could be wrong, but doesn't the 149 use the weird ( Frankenstein , I think ) bolts to mount the rear lift ?

Nope I was wrong. Parts tree shows the bosses on the rear of the frame. Don't know why yours aren't there. I wonder if those weird bolts would work though

You simply need the Frankenstein bolts. It's not a factory goof on your frame.

A guy could make them pretty easily. It is just a bolt with the threads ground down. I would not pay that price for them.

Yanno, I just happen to have a set setting on my work bench

Both of my wide frames have the collars. When I bought my 3 point the 1200 had those bolts so I took them thinking I might need them. I could probably be talked out of them

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.
