Merk,
I wonder about the strength of the lift tab. Having it welded to just the tube didn't seem to be to strong, so I was considering strengthening that area anyways. Thanks for the suggestion. |

Looking good! Looking forward to the final draft so I can get one built!
Thank you! |

looks great but do you really need the inside ones to go all the way back

I hafta agree with rwire125 about the inner straps not needing to go all the way to the back.
But I really think that Diz Jr. has already built the ultimate adapter. Here is the thread, http://onlycubcadets.net/forum/showt...p?t=414&page=2 From that, weld on short straps toward the front of the "X" to go on the inside of your lower bracket. |

No, they don't need to go all the way back, but there has to be some cross brace or space so they can be welded.
That X-design is probably an overkill, but it would be effective. One thing you have to be sure you nailed the over width dimension as that design won't have any give to it. It would be strong. One thing I would do with that design is nixed the X and have one brace running horizontal across tying both yokes together and then having it welded to the lift tab strengthening it...... it does give me ideas. |

the only thing i see wrong with the X is it looks like he started out with an org Brinly hitch insted of fabing the whole hitch but def looks strong. to make yourself square is the easyest way to go welding one up. and T-MO think you could just make a spacer to weld on the inside the run another peace back to double the pivit area just a thought, and ill prob use your plans when i do mine, good work bruder

Hitch that came on 70/100s and some later narrow frame Cubs: Current style from Brinly: I don't like the 90 degree corners. The 90 degree corner style hitch will be the easiest to catch trash when plowing. I have feeling that is one of the reasons why Brinly change their hitch. The second pictire Yosemite Sam posted is on of the better designs I've seen. |

Merk, any chance that I could get the measurements of the lift straps? I have the same hitch for my CCO, but I need to make the lift straps. I know they are shorter than the wide frames, I just don't know how much. Thanks for your help

Sometimes the trash on the surface likes to bunch up when plowing. Anything like a 90 degree sleeve hitch adapter can and will catch the trash. Then you will have to stop and unplug the plow. |

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.
