They were about 3/16" too low. I elongated the holes just a bit and it bolted right up.

Thanks, I just wondered if the frame on the one that I checked was tweaked. I only had to rework 1 hole. Like I said it was no big deal.

Mine came a couple of days ago, box was in perfect shape. I don't think I can get to it this weekend. I agree yellow looks sharp, think I'm leaning that way.

I'm surprised there are so many going with yellow, I figured there'd be more black bumpers out there, that's what I'm going to do with mine.

Just to report back: I test fitted my bumper to my 2284 tonite and I will have to make one hole elongated to fit properly. Otherwise I'm happy.

Got back to the bumpers today. Had to elongate the same hole on the second bumper. Then I took the die grinder to the upper tubes and fish mouthed them for a better fit to the main bumper tube before welding them. Happy with the results. Cleaned them up and got them painted. Maybe tomorrow I can get them mounted and get a couple pics.

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.
