remember too that the pto runs at almost engine speed some where around 1800 rpms most pto stuff runs at 540. had an old dearborn 3 point sickle mower on mine reverse rotation didnt matter because its just a pitmin arm setup on the mower. to fix the speed problem i took off the pulleys at front of pto shaft to engine and put on sprockets one small one big to reduce speed. kind of redneck but it worked

Yes, the lo-boy PTO's turn at approx engine speed. The cub cadet (with a gear drive) turns at about 515 RPM's, and the supers at about 1800 also.

When I got out of the army I still had a few months before college started up so I got a summer job at a resort mowing grass. I don't remember the model number but it was a Loboy and it was old, even back then. Spent about 40 hours a week riding that thing. Just before I was heading off to school they traded it on a new JD diesel.

I'm looking forward to getting this one up and going. I've wanted one for a while now too.

Your welcome..... I guess. LOL. I've spent countless hours researching. But I used to work for Case IH, and we ran IH on the farm. My family even owned the local dealer for a while. IH's history is pretty cool. It's too bad that the higher ups got greedy, and let the company fail.

I think it would be cool to stuff a diesel in a lo-boy........

That would be pretty cool!! But that's a pretty tall motor. I think most all the Kubota 4 cylinders would fit.

The 4BT would be AWESOME though!!!

I'm not sure I followed that......

Are you saying the Isuzu won't fit in a lo-boy, and your going to make a lo-boy into a hydro? Or your going to use cub finals on a 1650..... I'm confused.

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.
