Move to Florida then you won't have to deal with snow.

Does the leading corner edge of the rubber strip get rounded off?

After one season, it is starting, but not enough to effect operation yet.

I have loaded 8.50's on my 125 with tri ribs up front. 4 link chains ( 2 work better ) and off I go with my QA42. If I can get up my driveway for the first pass, everything is golden after that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfWy8jbj_GY If you don't have a cab, I HIGHLY recommend wearing a full face motorcycle helmet. You'll be much warmer. I got stuck on ice one year and this is the slight make I made after literally minutes of spinning. |

The guy I got my 1000 off of showed me the marks on his driveway from chains and it was noticeable. In fact, that was one of the primary reasons why he was getting rid of his 1000. I am not for sure what resurfacing would do, as I do not deal with asphalt driveways with my cubs. Is it possible to hook up a winch from Harbor Freight to the front of your cub and secure it to something solid. Of course a snow thrower with a winch would not be feasible, but if you just want to get to the top of the driveway, it will do it. Lots of good ideas, with loaded tires, additional weight, shelter cover, etc. This next year may be a little trial an error for you on this.

It's a driveway. Ain't your kitchen or living room floor.
Strap em on, if it does more damage than you like, park the tractor and get a bigger shovel.

I use the "rubber" chains on my 1864. With a snow blower, you will need lots of rear weight. Less with a plow. The 20 year old cross rubber pieces have somewhat shredded, but still work. Although I should replace some of them. Generally the most difficulty is backing up. Smooth glare ice, forget it. I prefer to plow the snow and generally do not have any difficulty. Only twice in the past 15 years have I had to remove the plow and fit the snowblower due to deep heavy wet snow. I could not push the snow as traction was limited even with wife standing on the rear weights. Plan your paths to minimize needing to back up especially uphill.

My current chains are two link vbar so I'm going to have to order a new set of regular two link chains. I have a guy coming tonight to give me an estimate on taking some of the grade out of the yard so it's not so steep. The first pic shows roughly what the yard looks like at the end of the driveway, the vertical line represents the end of the driveway and then there about 40ft before it drops off. I can take my truck and trailer down over it but the trailer drags pretty bad. The second pic shows how I want to cut it back so it's easier to get in and out and easier to mow, it's steep enough that the 782 slides right down it in nuetral with the rear tire spinning in opposite directions.

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.
