    Parts For Sale 54" Snow/dozer blade, Wideframe

    It pains me to say this but the buyer intends to morph this into a blade for a Ventrac. He tells me the Ventrac blade was in the $1700 range. I would have loved to see it go to an old Cub owner but fully understood his reasoning.

    Cyclops with 16 hp briggs any good ?

    The old 1872 ran a 60" deck with a 18HP Kohler Mamgum, great engine but I bet the Vanguard has more torque? That old 18 also ran a 451 blower through some big snows.

    1882 value?

    Link to some 1882 specs; http://www.tractordata.com/lawn-tractors/001/1/2/1128-cub-cadet-1882-engine.html The 1882 is closely related to the 2284. I would buy if it was within reach! I've had great luck over the years with Cubs around this vintage. My very first was a 149 (I know, much older)...

    Parts For Sale 54" Snow/dozer blade, Wideframe

    I have a solid 54" snow plow dozer blade for the older wide frame Cub Cadet. It came with a 2284 I bought 10 years ago and was never mounted. I bought the tractor and plow used so the blade may have some usage and it has been stored outside. I have a manual for it indicating a Model 190-401-100...

    CLEAN Jokes

    Rule for estimating time on a job. Carefully figure out how many hours it should take. Convert that number to days.

    2084: How do you remove the mower deck?

    I do what Cubs4lifeofme suggests and then connect front of mule drive to Harbor Freight winch. I get just enough front wheel height to roll it out. I use the same winch to raise for cleaning and service with jackstands for safety.

    How Cold Is IT?

    This has been the warmest November/December I can remember in NE Ohio. We've had a number of hi 40 and 50 degree days. Friday and Saturday are predicted 50 and 60. I thought I took my last motorcycle ride last week, but a 60 degree day on Saturday...

    Added a Mahindra 22 Max TBL

    I've looked at the Mahindra's. I have a friend that's had one a few years and he's really happy with it. I have an 87? Ford 1220 and an 87? Case 245 that I'd like to upgrade to a more recent Kubota, Mahindra, whatever.

    Gas leak

    That just doesn't seam well engineered, but I've never had one leak. I have a 2284 that will leak from the crossover if I fill it completely. I've wallered around on the floor looking for the solution and thus far the solution is 3/4 tank of fuel!

    Parts For Sale Cub Cadet 551 Snowblower $350 NE Ohio

    I have a 551 Cub snow thrower that fits the Super garden tractor series. I used this blower 5 or so years ago and then switched over to a 6 foot plow on a compact tractor. The blower sat outside until I got around to cleaning it up last fall. I sandblasted, wire brushed and sanded, then did a...

    Lubricating Idler Pulleys

    Great idea, for lack of a syringe you can just push some grease in with a small brush or tongue depressor.

    Need a 782 hood ornament !!!

    Thanks, I've owned a 149, 1860, 1862, 1872 and a 2284 and realized this was not from any of them. I probably acquired it from dad's inventory. Curt

    I may have a hood ornament in my shop, can't remember how I acquired it. I'll post a picture later. You're welcome to it if it is the right one.
