Todd I forgot how mangled that blade was. You did a great job in bringing it back to factory design.

FYI I love the NF lifts!

Default mounted blade
Well I got the rest of the PO buggered up mods off the push blade today. And got it mounted on the 125, but....
Seems in the all the way down position it's about 1/2 inch from the ground, so do I need to make a longer lift rod, or am I missing something here?

Does the lift arm that attaches to the hydraulic cylinder rod hit the stop that is mounted to the frame under the cylinder? That stop limits down motion of the blade. Loosen that stop and slide it forward to clear the lift arm. Can't tell from the pics if that is the case. If that isn't the case, I'd look for some other adjustments before I'd get a longer lift rod, but that, of course, is one way to solve the problem.

No, the adjustment is all the way forward.
Now I have to go out there and look for sure, but I'm almost sure it is

Yup,it's not touching anything.

OK, easy fix. let some air out of the front tires and add some to the rear tires. (do I get credit for creativity?)

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.
