Default Model 129 Newbie Question
I am glad I found this forum. I have tried to search for 129 but it will not find anything.

Is the Model 129 a garden tractor? Can I use a 3 point or sleeve hitch on it?
I have an opportunity to pick 1 up that is running with a mowing deck but the guy doesn't know anything else about it. It will only cost me gas and lunch to get it. I have some sleeve hitch implements already.

Welcome to OCC speckred17! Glad to have you here. Yes, the 129 is a garden tractor. You can use sleeve hitch attachments. Sounds like you are getting a great deal, on the 129. You don't get a free Cub Cadet everyday! Good luck, on your 129, and please post some pics, when you get it home.

speckred17:

First, welcome to our Forum...........

YUP....the 129 IS a Garden Tractor.

YUP...the 129 can utilize Cub's 3 Point Hitch System in conjunction with the Brinly Sleeve Hitch Adapter.


It is a 12HP Hydro Drive. It was the first series of Cubs that IH designed as the "wide frames".

A strong model and popular model.

By all means, latch onto this Cub.

ANY IH Cub Cadet garden tractor (except the 982) can use the IH 3-point and Brinly sleeve hitch adapter. A spring assist is a good idea on manual lift tractors.

Great find on the 129! It will make a great tractor and can add pretty much any attachment that will fit other IH built cub cadets.

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.
