Thumbs up Custom hitch diskgang
Here is some metal I will be useing this saturday to make a hitch for my disks. Like I said before that I have not alot of information of how the 3-point hitch operates in rythem with the diskgang, and after a few trys of pulling them. I made a decision. A fter all, you dont know what you dont know, right? With an Ace up my sleeve, I should come out alright to make this outfit run. One swipe through the tilled garden and it was another 40 miles before I could turn it around! I'am very happy with these as they realy do a number on this half-way tilled soil! I'll be happy to share picts. when its done. Next time I'd like to duel up the rear wheels as I took note why. Love gardens.....Wild Bill done me right! Was not sure where to post, sorry.

I sure did find alot of information here at Only Cub Cadets. Alot of fine tallent and great skill shared........Way more than what I'am used to. So the 3 point mount on the rear of the 71 was what I simply built off of. The mount can be removed at any time and the 3 point cub cadet hitch and cub cadet sleeve hitch or what have you can be installed. This set up I made is only for my gang of disks. I believe it to be very formatiable foe in strength and construction. When I can get picts. up, I would like comments good or bad, ideas on improvement I guess is what I'am getting at. Thanks, John

Here are some more. Thats as far as I got. Went with the 1/2 in. holes, had no drill bit bigger. Seems like there is something missing here. The hitch free floats up and down. This is some thing I dont know to be good or bad, as the gardens I use it in are not suddenly hilly or what not. I dont think I'am done here.

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.
