Default Road trip !!!

well after 4 hours and over 220 miles I have myself a model 2B tiller! its in pretty decent shape, I just need to get a mule drive for the 1250. I am confused a little, everything I've read on here is that I need the lower hoop of the three point to mount the tiller to, but it looks like this is self contained? if anyone can shine a little light on this it would be appreciated.

the gearbox acts as the lower mount.

The tiller mounting frame does have holes to attach the lower tiller arms to, however it is recommended that the 3 point lower "U" bracket also be used and the pins should go through all 3 holes on each side.

FWIW, 2 of mine have the lower "U" bracket and the other one does not. I don't notice any difference but I'm sure the ones with the bracket are more stable and sturdy.

Make sure you get the yellow U bracket and use it. The tiller bounces around enough while working you want to make sure you don't go bending anything by not utilizing it. Tiller gear boxes are a PITA to bend back if you ever are ever unfortunate to bend it. Don't ask me how I know.....

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.
