Question 3 point hitch

I'm curious to know if anyone has tried these 3 point hitch assemblies from xtreme motor works and how well they perform. If i decide to order one it would be put on a 147. http://www.xtrememotorworks.com/Part.../CC-03-200.htm

Those are just a copy of the factory lift that was available on the later cubs, I have a factory lift and it works great so I wouldn't see this one not working just as well.

You would be much better off with a front blade in the snow than a rear blade, you can pick up a blade for the front of your cub for about $150. The rear blades don't seem to plow as good and you have to spend the entire time looking backwards which is real hard on the neck.

I would agree. I have tried both the front snow plow and rear snow plow. The front plow is much easier. It might be my setup but it seems the tractor pushes snow better in forward.

The other plus to a front blade is that you're not running over what your trying to clear. With a rear blade, you will also bunch snow up between the blade and tractor, eventually bunching up under the tractor, causing damage.

Dont believe me? Go ahead with it. There is a reason i dont use a 3pt blade anymore. Unless you are moving like a 2-3" snow, which i wouldn't mess with anyway.

I agree with them...

The front blades are cheaper and easier to work with.... plus you can see what you are doing without breaking your neck!

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.
