Default Retro-fitting a Rear PTO
I see from time to time a rear PTO on ebay. Like this one:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CUB-CADET-RE...item4170e9366e

Ignoring the price, how difficult would this be to install?

How cool would that be? What do you plan on running with that if you were to ever get one?

The rear PTO's are pretty cool but they turn in the wrong direction, so you have to get one of those Hub City reverser's for about $400.00 to $500.00 bucks (picture 1) and you can run standard 500 rpm equipment. Other guy's have found or built equipment to use them as they are.

There only value, as mentioned above, is the "Cool Factor". Functionally, they are worthless, as is.

So, back to my original question. How difficult is it to install one on an existing tractor? Does it require complete dis-assembly of the rear end, or is it simply installed by removal of the rear cover? Anybody know?

That one on ebay sold for $360.

In order to install them, you have to swap out the shaft in the tranny to accept the PTO. There is a collar that slides back and forth to engage the PTO. The stock shaft doesn't work with the PTO. So the tranny has to come apart. Not too hard, just takes a little while.

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.
