Default Undercarriage Tiller Pulley Attachment?

I'll be purchasing my first sleeve hitch for my 1250 via a Facebook seller many states away (wish me luck) age years of searching for one that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I've been wanting it specifically for a bottom plow and tiller. I came across this today and was wondering if anyone here made it and had some more details, pictures, or a write up on making a copy.

It seems so much more stable than a 1/2" belt running the length of the tractor, not to mention economical when it's time to replace the belts.

Been running a 1650 with the OEM belt on my 2A now for 8 seasons w/no issues.
And I till about a dozen gardens every spring plus my own.
Sounds like a solution looking for a problem.
The reason he has a bigger belt is because his PTO has a bigger sheave.

Doesn't the 143" belt cost $50 or more?

On a side note, I'm having a hard time finding how the 1250 hydro kit connects. I don't have a spring assist or hydro lift, but I'd like to retrofit the hydraulic ram for the lift.

Another side note, I think I need to clean my diff and relief valves before I add any of this on the tractor...

Hydro lift kit???

You will need a ported pump to do that.

Check the parts lookup for exploded views of the hydraulic lift assl'y.

Pretty much self explanatory.

I take it your 1250 has a manual lift like most did?

I have a line on a manifold I guess you would call it, where all the lines connect, the ram and the lines. I'd just like to know where they connect to on the transaxle.

personally I like the jack shaft idea ! when I was a kid back in the 60's using a tiller on our 105 that long belt was a problem when times were good and the belt was 20 bucks ! We'd plow then run the tiller over it and sure enough that belt would catch some sod or get to whipping around get thrown off and torn up ! I suppose if we had a disc to cut it up first may have been easier on belts !

The lines connect to a hydro's fittings you don't have, is what we are trying to tell you.
in other words: you need to install a different hydro that has provisions for hydraulics, it is called a "ported hydro"
then you need the spool valve,
hyd cylinder lines/ hoses,
actuating lever linkage,
and the lift linkages, cross shaft.
ETC.ETC. ETC
Your best bet is either get a tractor that already has hydraulic's or get a donor tractor that has everything you need to do the conversion if you want anything powered by hydraulic.

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.
