The mounting for the hydraulic pump used on narrow frame Cub Cadets is basically the same for all models. However, there are differences in the rear hydraulic cylinder mounts and pulley diameters. The Original is different than all later models of Cub Cadet.<\/p>\n

The top, smaller pulley is for an Original. \u00a0 It is a 5 1\/2 inch diameter pulley. \u00a0The larger, bottom pulley is for all other Cub Cadets. \u00a0It is 6 1\/2 inches in diameter.<\/p>\n

\"hydraulic<\/a>The mounting brackets shown above are for the front cylinder connection. The one on the right is for a Cub Cadet Original. Notice the angle bracket has an extra set of holes and the mounting pin extends out further. The mounting bracket on the left is for all other narrow frame Cub Cadets.<\/p>\n

\"hydraulic<\/a><\/p>\n

The drive pulleys shown above are mounted to the rear of the engine. The double pulley on the left is for an Original and the pulley on the right is for all other narrow frame Cub Cadets. The Original requires a double pulley since one of the pulleys is required for the main drive. All other narrow frame Cub Cadets have a shaft drive to the transmission.<\/p>\n

The picture above shows the three, rear cylinder connections used on narrow frame Cub Cadets. The one on the left is for an electric lift. The bracket on the right is for the Cub Cadet Original. The center bracket is for all other Cub Cadets.\u00a0 You might notice that each one has a different offset.<\/p>\n

Here’s some pictures of pumps mounted on various narrow frame Cub Cadets.\u00a0 I think\u00a0both\u00a0the first two pictures are a pump mounted on a Model 73.<\/p>\n

For the pump to be mounted on an original, it requires a double pulley on the engine.<\/p>\n

\"Original\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Early model narrow frame Cub Cadets (Original, 70, 100) required holes be drilled in the frame for the pump to be mounted.\u00a0 On later models, the frame came predrilled.<\/p>\n

And, that\u2019s about if for now. I\u2019ll add more discussion and pictures when I get the opportunity. As always, if you have any comments or questions, contact me through this website.<\/p>\n

Addendum:\u00a0 Someone contacted me about making one of the brackets for a hydraulic lift which reminded me of some drawings I have.\u00a0 Lots of times you end up purchasing a lift that has one of the brackets missing.\u00a0 In the past I\u2019ve managed to make some of these brackets myself.\u00a0 I made some drawings to help with the dimensions.\u00a0 I\u2019ll include those drawings here in no particular order.\u00a0 If you\u2019re not a Cub Cadet owner, the brackets will be of no interest to you.<\/p>\n
