Default Snapper 2 Stage Snow Blower on 129

I was given a snow blower that came off of a Snapper LT-16. The blower is 36" wide and is built to last with a cast iron gearbox on the auger. I actually got the blower before I found the 129. I had been looking for a tractor that I could mount the blower on because the Snapper models that this blower came off of are all junk. It took a little thinking and some welding to modify the Snapper mount. It worked great this winter. I came home after New Years and found my driveway to have 2' of snow and it cleared it out with no problem.

Very nice job on the mounting hardware. I've been into custom metal fab for over 40 years and I don't know that I could have done any better.
Great job

Thanks for the compliments.

I bought the tractor for $475 and it came with the mower deck, a single stage snow blower that I have not tried, wheel weights, and chains. I spent about $100 modifying the snapper mount. The best thing about the tractor is that it has the hydraulic lift and the motor runs great.

I plan on building a cab for it this summer.

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.
