Default Rear lifts for CCC tractors

Im trying to find and or piece together a rear lift for my 1811. I want to get a molboard plow and use it this spring and summer. My question is for those that have one to show how its set up for these tractors. I have a manual on the way, but pics help best. Also what does the lift rod look like? Ive seen two different kinds, one with a angle to it and one that looks like straight piece of flat stock, would one or both work for the same application or are they different lenghts? Any help is appreciated and thanks!

Search "possible 1712 purchase" in this subforum and you will see how Wild Bill did it on his 1712. I put a frame mounted hitch on my 682CCC but not for a sleeve hitch. It could have been modified to do that though.

If you want to put a sleeve hitch style lift on you 1811, you basically need a lift for a 782. The only difference would be the lower bracket that bolts to the differential. As far as the lift bar, it uses a straight lift bar. The lift bar with the bend is for manual lift tractors. For a lower bracket, I would buy one here: http://www.xtrememotorworks.com/. I would highly recommend a the "dual tab with ears" model. You can go either way with the 3 or 4 hole bracket. I don't think I've ever seen anyone using a 4 hole bracket at plowdays, so I would save the extra money and get a 3 hole. With the aluminum rearend in the 1811, you pretty much have to have the "Ears" for support so you don't pull the bolts out of the housing.

Thanks guys! That what i was thinking but wanted to make sure i was getting the right parts. How long is the lift bar? I can save some more money and make my own. now all i need is the lift casting itself. If Im not mistaken a wide frame lift should work as long as i have the frankenstein bolts right?

Thanks bill! the only part i have trouble finding is the lift casting. Would a wide frame casting work? I can make the lift bar and will modify a bagger plate if i can find one! Your set up is pretty cool and easy to do! How long is your lift bar (casting to hydro lift) and size of the hole on each end? Is this bar straight like regular flat stock or is it the kind that Aaron sells with his 3pt kits? Im certain its a straight bar but want to double check before i buy the metal to do so.

All the wide frame castings are the same, so yes, you use a wide frame casting. And as I previously said. You use the straight lift bar. The curved bar is for the manual lift tractors. The dimentions for the bar can be found in a post on this website in the implement section. Look at page 4 or 5 for a post called "Lift Bar Dimentions". It's all there.

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.
