I came home from work last night and spent a couple hours and got the bucket all mounted up everything went together easily its well designed and the directions are pretty good. I left the electrical for this morning running the wires was not an issue but figuring where to put the switches is still in the works I hate cutting holes in the dash not only that but it wouldn't be a real ideal location reaching around the steering wheel. I got to play in the dirt a little bit. The faster tilt actuator for 50.00 extra is really a plus it could use a faster lift actuator also it sure is slow. I had a full bucket of sand loaded in it and didn't need any ballast the 1872 seemed to handle it without a problem but just in case ill go ahead and load the tires. Heres a couple of pictures of it . Ill add a few more later

Heres a couple of more shots, this is wet sand/dirt pretty heavy stuff no problems handling this. I bounced on the front end to see what kind of load the 1872 would take so with a added 250 lbs to the bucket load and 250 lbs less on the seat it didn't come off the ground nor feel spongy at this point I think I can hold off on any ballast. I did order a pair of 2 link tire chains to give me some more traction

Here is mine fully dressed and ready to take on the pile. I have found that the extra weight of the box scraper is unnecessary. Filling the tires and adding the wheel weights is though. Once the tires dig in, the box blade hits the ground and really gets you stuck.

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.
