Merk,
I have 6-12 tires on my 73. The moldboard on my 10" Brinly plow was shined up really nice. I tried plowing with the coulter initially (I was only ever at one plow day), but it kept clogging up, so I took it off. I was then able to plow about 5-6 inches deep in second gear without much difficulty. I did spin a few tirmes when someone in front of me went really deep and trash from the field built up underneath my tractor. Jason

Jason:
It sounds like your 73/plow is dial in. All the weight in the world will not help when you have a trash build up under your tractor.

My 70 will not be use to plow very much. At this time I will not be adding any fluid to the tires. This tractor will be used more for cultivating, planting, pulling the sprayer and aerator and hauling wood. I will add fluid if I deside to pull the moldboard on a regular basis.

Merk,
Yeah, I suppose the plow is set-up alright...not too sure since I never really did it before. I was thinking of filling the tires so I wouldn't have to have so many sets of weights on at one time. I had three weights on one side and two on the other (I got lucky and bought 3 IH weights for $50, another 2 for $20, and yet another set for free). Thanks,
Jason

I think we will ALL agree that we don't really care for Slime. However, when working at the far side of the woods (about a mile and a 1/4 from the shop (as the crow flies)) it really is better to run over a thorn with Slime in a tire than to run over a thorn without Slime in a tire.

To the best of my knowlege I don't think that Slime has ever failed me with a simple small puncture, at the very least it will normally get you back to the shop where the hole can be patched or plugged.

I do agree that liquid filled tires should have tubes in them, but if I'm not mistaken the question was: "Will Slime do it's job in tires with tubes, and will it stop a leak from a small puncture in a liquid filled tire?"

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.
