6x4 Cub
For my current project I decided to build my self a 4x6 cub from my collection of parts machines.
The frame and grill comes from 2 123's and the steering pedestal and ported hydraulic pump on the front drive axle came from a 1450. I've made progress since this picture was taken, the motor has been set in place and the driveshafts have been made and installed. Eventually there will be a dump bed behind the seat but that can wait until after I've got it running and driving. http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/p...pictureid=7387 |
I've often thought about building the exact same thing but was concerned it wouldn't turn very well or at all with a load in the bed.

That's pretty freekin sweet, what engine you going to be running?
Welcome to OCC. What part of wisconsin are you from? |
I'm about 30 min north of Madison.
For now it will be powered by a 12 horse k-series Kohler but I may upsize it depending on how well it performs having to drive both rear ends. As for turning it defiantly won't turn as sharp as a stock cub but the front drive axle does have split brakes to help bring it around in a pinch |
I sure like it! And any one knows me, knows I seldom leave anything stock.

Looks like fun! :beerchug: Yeah, turning might not be too fun.. :bigthink:
|
Looks like it could go into a grader too!
|
Are both axles under power. If they are shoot some pictures of the drive line. Very interesting build. :bigthink:
|
Welcome to OCC.:beerchug:
Cool looking project, please keep us up to date on the build...:beerchug: |
Very cool! Please post some more pictures especially of the manner in which you drive both axles. I like it!
