Cyclops (and more?) rear weight bracket
When I bought the 551 snowblower for my 2084, it came off a 1641 and it came with this weight bracket and the two suitcase weights you see here. I figured it would be a direct bolt-on to the Super's frame, but alas, they are different for whatever reason. The Super's frame is narrower, so I got longer bolts and shimmed it out with four nuts that were larger than the bolts and slid over the threads. It took quite a bit of wrangling to get it mounted, but it's very sturdy and has worked great over this winter. I really wish I could find two more suitcase weights of this style, but with 150lbs hanging off the wheels plus the 80ish on this bracket plus my 200lbs, this Super barely slips at all, even uphill in reverse. I've seen a couple variations of this bracket for rear weights, and I'm sure it could be adapted to other Cubs, but it was sold in the Cyclops era as a 190-447-100 kit. PartsTree shows it as fitting early 82-series Supers up to the PTO pulley change. Just sharing photos as I don't see these very often...

That's cool but it should have been a bolt on, the frames are the same width.

Here is a suggestion that could prevent a future problem. It would be a good idea to replace the nut spacers with a piece of flat steel on each side drilled for the holes holding the bracket on. This would spread out the load and the clamping force of the bolts on the steel actually makes everything stronger.
I like the bracket and need something similar for rear weight on my loader project. Tim

I've had two brand new brackets just like that. I think they just have that much spring back when they are bent to shape. It should be bolted directly to the frame without spacers.

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.
