Without going back and looking stuff up, I know that there were several attachments (some of which would probably be of no real use (with the exception of the cool factor) to an average homeowner) that were exclusive to the Original, but for the most part, anything that can attach to the 3 point or a sleeve hitch adapter can be used on any IH built Cub Cadet. "Original only" attachments do come up for sale periodically, if I'm not mistaken there was a front blade on epay some time ago that didn't get a bid (don't remember where it was, but I think it was all there and not in too bad of shape). I try to search epay every week or so, for "Cub Cadet Original" and once in awhile there is something cool on there and the prices aren't always astronomical.

You all are much smarter than me on this stuff. I know attachments like a plow or anything that will attach to a 3 point would work on an original, but the Original used a 3 point unique to itself, right? A 3 point from a 70/100 would not work on an Original? That's what I meant to get at.
I guess I should have clarified that statement: "I didn't realize that all of the attachments for the Original were made just for the Original..." I have been told that a blade for an Original is different than those from any other narrow frame due to the way it attaches. The blade itself is the same, but the mount is different. Also, isn't the square 38" deck on the Original unique to it also?

gcbailey,
You are correct, the majority of the parts for a 3 point hitch on an Original are exclusive to an Original and they are spendy as "heck". I don't have a front blade for an Original but I don't believe that any of the parts for one will fit from a different model. IH did make an adapter package that would allow an Original deck to be mounted on a 70/100 and they also made a kit that would allow a cast iron end deck to be used on an Original. But once again those are hard to find and pricey as well. Getting back to the 3 point; yes, you're pretty-much out of luck without it (I'm sorry, I didn't realize you don't have one) and they also go for BIG BUCKS, you could probably buy a whole different tractor for what you'd pay for one. Keep the faith, save your money and search hard are about the only options for getting yourself a 3 point. Good Luck

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.
