Nope, made to be pulled out from the side. I do think some guys with the big Supers with a 60 inch deck drive back over theirs. I have a 50 on mine so I just pull it out from the side.

only things I've saw that can be driven over are for a SCUT. I know a guy who's got a 3206 with a 54" deck and it actually rolls around pretty easily, wouldn't drive over a pressed out tin deck though.

I have seen the JD commercial where the tractor drives up and over the deck to install it. Unless the deck has treads built onto the upper surface you will ruin the paint and cause unnecessary wear and tear. I bought a strange lift from Harbor Freight that lifts up the front of my 1811 and the deck just slides right under without the back and forth of the normal method. Here is the lift I use. It is currently $99 but I bought it for $59 on one of their specials. The two lift bars are rubber coated and does not scratch or mar the mule when I lift the front end up enough to slide the deck under. It has an automatic safety lock that engages at each new level of height adjustment and the handle attaches with a pin to allow it to be removed in your shop. It also works on the rear and allows you to remove both rear tires at one time and is very stable because of the wide spread of the two lifting bars. I bought it because of the two bar lift system and did not know what it was originally designed for.

I thought the 60" or 72" like on the supers you could? My sister in law has a Husky from TSC I think with a big 54" that has diamond plate tread on top and was made to drive over.

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.
