Default NF Blade Sub Frame Problem

Hi everyone,

I am having an issue attaching my plow subframe to my model 70. I have it correctly positioned outside the footrest brackets at the rear but when I try to lift the front it hits the axle long before it is high enough for the bolt holes to line up. I have been searching the forums and have seen numerous photos and my subframe is definitely the correct one and doesn't appear bent or twisted enough to cause a problem. Anyone else that has had or is aware of this problem that could weigh in would be great. Or anyone with a picture of the clearance between the front axle and the subframe would be appreciated. Is it supposed to touch? I can try to post a picture or two of the problem but in the meantime any help would be nice. Thanks.

I've seen that before. There are brackets that bolt to the subframe to lower it.

Like muzzy said, it sounds like you are missing part # 19.

I can make them if you run into problems. I will need dimensions though.

Might find some useful information here, in my thread. The extension brackets are the same as what Lew gave to you.

I went back and corrected the mistake, the link now works. You should have a good example of the sub frame extensions Lew posted,.... you need only to match drill the two pieces of stock together,........

Thanks everyone. I am going to whip up a pair of those flat stock extensions and call it a day. I'll post pics when I get them on.

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.
