Default 54" blade
Hey everyone, picked up a 54" blade off Craigslist this weekend. Guy had it on a cyclops tractor, but it's an older IH blade and mount. Had extension pieces bolted on the back of it to fit onto the frame. I took them off and it slides into the QA in the front and over the round bar underneath. Anyone know how tall the QA pins are from the undercarriage mount? These have been extended, badly. As well as the lift arm bracket, bolted with chicken sh*t welds. Going on my 1812, may fit a cylinder on it for the use of the front ports

From the top of the arm to the center of the mounting pin = 3.5"

Another question, were there supposed to be 2 sets of holes for the lift bracket to interchange? The empty one looks too far back to me.

the back set of holes is where you bolt on the front power angle bracket.

Default Blade
I am not sure which axle you have on the front.

What I have done in the past is put a length of 2x6, on edge, under the blade frame where it is mounted to the front of the GT. This should make the frame parallel with the ground, at least on my 42" in it did. Secure the mounting. This worked on my GT and set the blade angle of attack right. check for correct lift link length.

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.
