Default My new...... super?

Ok, well, it's not a super. But I don't have one of those yet, and this was the closest thing I could get for now. Buddy of mine had it, and had been bugging me about buying it. A friend of mine and I shared a tractor a while back. He owned the tractor, I owned all the attachments. He fell into financial trouble and decided to sell the tractor, and I was left with nothing to use my stuff on. Thought a Lo-Boy with 3pt would work ok. Only thing I'm not sure what I'm going to do with is that stupid reverse running PTO. Maybe I'll drop a diesel in it backwards and flip the ring gear......

Anyway, got it for a "Lew" price, and it needs some work. Lets just say, the 3pt on it is worth more than I paid. Needs driveline work, and maybe a S/G. The S/G was off of it, and I don't know why, but they said it would run..... (Heard that before.) May convert it over to a starter/alternator set-up while I'm in there. Throttle cable must have broke, and a make-shift throttle put on the R.H. side. (That will be fixed directly.) Plan on putting the taller ag tires on it, and the skinny try ribs on the front. If I don't end up liking it, I'll trade it for something I will! Let me know what you think!

I think I have all the parts. And yes, it does have individual rear brakes! The 3pt, and dual brakes were the sellers for me. I'll probably sell the deck and carriage as I really have no use for a mower that big. (But, as usually happens, later I'll be like, "Man, wish I hadn't gotten rid of that deck!")

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.
