Better picture of the current status. Still working on the power steering. Needed to cut down the steering shaft and mount the steering valve on a new bracket. Will start running the hydraulic lines over the weekend.
My weekends are available all of a sudden now that all my Cowboy Action matches have been cancelled until further notice. I came in 4th out of 60 competitors last weekend.

The rear "headlights" are actually RGB LEDs, so they can be any color. I will have true headlights at some point as well.

I’ve been watching your progress on Facebook and happy I came on here to read and catch the whole story. I’ve been throwing the same idea of building a motor grader out of Cub.
Got my plans on my mind drawing board always adding to it. Great work! |

I've been fabricating wheel guards, foot rests, dash extension to hold control valves for the blade, and done some painting. Currently making plans for the blade circle, traction frame (supports the blade from the front axle) and associated hydraulics. Current thinking is to have a steel fabricator cut the circle (actually an annular ring) and then I'd bend and weld a purchased (McMaster-Carr) rack to the rim of the circle so it can be driven by a pinion gear on a hydraulic motor. I have work to do to finish the front end and mount headlights. I will have to grind paint off in spots to weld various support structures to the main frame, but wanted to get paint on the frame while it was still rust free. Some pics, dash still has masking tape on it.

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.
