The rear mounted mowers are my Dad's creations.


Dad is using the tiller drive facing towards the rear to run Hadan mower. The tiller manual has instructions in the manual to do this.


48 inch finish mower

Dad is using the 90 degree box from a IH Cub Cadet 1100.

I believe you are right, I want to say it was a hydraulic pump, but don't remember for sure. I think it was only a couple of years ago.

Was it the guy who built the cab onto a 147 that had all kinds of cool features, like heat?

It would probably be easier to do on a Narrow Frame because of the battery location.

I would like to incorporate that shaft to run an alternator that would produce enough power for an electric heater.

Talk about weird shit... for whatever reason, I reverted back to my " how to put a 540 pto on a gt" thought this afternoon and then I get on to see this post. After exhausting the mechanical means, I came up with... Hydraulics. Which btw, it appears that a planetary gear set up is the only way possible if looking to go with the 540 RPM standard.

Surplus Center has LSHT motors with the 1-3/8" "540" shaft already on the motor its self. Then find the correct displacement pump to drive said motor. I have not figured out the details except the way it would be driven (splined output shaft of hydro pump). One of the first issues I see, little to no room for a clutch of any type to disconnect the hydraulic pump. An open center hydraulic valve would need to be installed in the circuit, but would continuously circulate oil.

The valve, if directional, would be very handy if a guy wanted to reverse the pto (post hole digger operation), but not necessary for a gt.

The next issue is oil... there is not room to have a separate oil reservoir, SO the rear end would need to be tapped into for a suction and discharge for the pto ckt. Which, to me, presents the biggest problem, Oil Temperature. Would the oil, after being used to for auxiliary hydraulics and propelling the tractor, become too hot with the extra pump and motor added to the oil system? I do not see a feasible way to install an external oil cooler that wouldn't just look awful on a cub.

Any thoughts?

I think you might be thinking of my 147 FEL thread.

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.
