Default Dethatcher



I have been toying with the idea of the Sleeve Hitch mounted Dethatcher. Has anyone ever fabricated one up and how did it work...???

Pictures would be wonderful.

Hmm, what about a front mounted dethatcher? I've always thought they were neat looking and heck, why not dethatch with the first mow?

I recently bought the brinly dethatcher and cut the hitch off and welded a sleeve hitch on there, works like a charm, can get some pics if you like. Also used it to level out the edges of my garden.

Don't have to worry about finding NOS or OEM parts for that. Cheap repairs is the way to go.

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.
