Default Made some new step plates
I made some diamond plate step plates for my 147, I know they can be purchased but I get greater satisfaction making them myself...plus I don't have a lot of money I got the diamond plate for free it was scraps from work. Also I was bored and painted the letters on my tires, I've seen big tractors that people have done that to and I kind of liked the way it looked. What do you guys think?

I agree with all the comments you have. They look great. It's so nice to use something that was headed for the scrap metal yard. Their probably much better that the ones you could have bought?

Very nice. I think the white lettering adds a nice touch to the tires.

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.
