Default wheel horse to Cub
Just wondering if anyone has ever converted an older wheel horse snow blower that i ran on a 516 to be able to use it on a cub slt 1554. I know that it will be a challenge as the wheel horse was a horzontal shaft and the cub is vertical. The old horse died and I hate to see the blower just sitting there and would love to make it work. Any and all help would be appreciated.

Anything is possible with some metal, a hack saw, and welder.

Sell the thrower and buy the correct cub cadet one.

Lawn tractors and snowblowers in my opinion do not mix very well. I had a 1420 and totally destroyed the tranny by doing just that.

I'd find the wheel horse for the blower rather than fabricating the blower to fit a lawn tractors

thanks guys .... while not the answers i was hoping for it was the answers i was expecting. I know that buying the cub blower is the right answer but the $1200+ they want for them is not in the budget at this time and I have had no luck finding a used one at a reasonable price either. Thanks again and want to say that I enjoy the site and all the help that is given here..

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.
