well i thought of a belly blade but i have this rear scraper blade and it has the same type steel edge on it.so thats why i was thinking of useing the two blades for suitcase weigth cut with a plasma cutter.

SCOTT - Township Road Commissioner I worked for summers when I was in college used to give them away too but You had to be on His list....and the list was about five years long.... He replaced the edges on the 14 ft grader blade every year. Farmers in the area used them on their manure loader buckets. I agree....compared to these edges mild steel is "Soft"!

DONALD - Nice rear blade.....but if You ever ran a Cubbie with a belly blade I bet Your rear blade would show up in the classifieds. Only problem with a Cubbie compared to it's lesser competition is the blade either has to be fairly low or not raise very high. Dan H.'s design (which I'm sure Kraig will post pic's of now) solves one of those problems, the lifting height.

Geez, That grader attachment sure looks tasty..... I'll have to invent a need for it now....

Don T,
If you use those pipes, you'll have to wear a skullcap.....

Christopher, I'm not a plow guy, but my guess is a 3-point hitch would do it. Maybe someone else here can help better.

I picked up this belly blade not too long ago. Can't figure out how it mounts up though. May have to "tweek" some things.

JIM - I hate to say this but it looks like It'd fit on the FRONT of a Cubbie better than under the middle.

There were a couple companies that made belly blades for Cub Cadets but I think only the '61 to '63's, not the later numbered series.

hi guys what do all you guys use under the hood on your tractors when they sit on the dash tower.all my cubs have the paint wore off there and there must be something i can use to help and cut down on noise? later DonT

Don..I am going to use some neoprene with an adhesive backing, it's 1/8" thick and 2" wide. It's soft and pretty abrasion resistant. Mc Master Carr has some part #8461K113 , $6.48 . I'm sure others have their own prefrences .

If your still interested in that Don send me an email

Don T.-

I slit some 1/8" rubber tubing and glued it to the places where the hood rests.
