Default Hydraulic angle kit

Hi everyone, I recently picked this up off eBay. It was super cheap, being that the cylinder is crap, but it appears to be the early style. SO my million dollar question is this, the kit I can use a early style lift cylinder for? Most of these I've seen have a lot bigger bore cylinders.

Thanks in advance for everyone's help.

I picked up a lift cylinder from a 149 today it has about a 1 1/2" shorter stroke but should work till i can get this cylinder cut open and rebuilt or find a replacement. Tomorrow i am going to head down to the local hydraulic shop and see if i can get lines and fittings.

That cylinder has been cut open before. I can tell by the weld on the cap end.

I don't know that they ever used that small rod cylinder for the angle on a blade. If so, I'd like to see documentation (parts book) or otherwise. I think that might be an adapted QL cylinder.

If it's frozen in place, it will cost more to fix it than for someone to build a new one.... or about the same. The tube, piston and rod will have to be replaced. Don't let anyone fool you. A stainless rod will not work. It must be chrome plated. BTDT. It doesn't work.

I was going to ask the hydraulic shop the best option if they can get me a cylinder that will work that's fine. If not i will use use the lift cylinder.

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.
