Default 1450 hydro upgrade question
Picked up a complete front output setup tonight to add to my 1450. With it came the tower and also the directional lever.

My question is do I need to swap the whole tower and directional control lever when I switch the valve and add the second handle?

You should be able to just swap the lever over to your existing tower.

Ok . I didn't study it , but the only difference I can possibly think of is the bushing that the lever/ levers go through on the right side of the tower / pedestal may be a bit bigger on the duals .


I need to replace the iso mounts , so when I pull the engine to put in the upgraded cradle and new mounts and cast iron oil pan , seems to be a good time to do the hydro upgrade also.

Alot easier putting in your lines to the front too when the engine is out.

That reminds me, I need to locate a picture of where exactly I have to punch through to exit them.

And have to decide if I want to "t" off that aux side and run a set of outputs to the rear in the event I ever want to use something that would hook up off the back.

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.
