Default Winch on a wide-frame???

I was thinking of mounting a winch on my 149 and was wondering if there were any treads on this or anyone out there who has done this.

Guys have done it, mostly on the back as a quick and dirty lift solution.

If you were to do it, dont just bolt it to the front web because a heavy pull will distort your frame. Instead, make bracket that nearly or fully encapsulates the shoulder bolts for the quick tach. Then just use the quick tach catch for keeping the winch and everything in place.

This puts mose of the stress on bigger bolts, not to mention there is more frame structure because of the front axle bracket. Do not rely on that wimpy 3/8 rod and catch to hold the stress... or youll be sorry!!!

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.
