Cultivator Question

[1Sarge]

I have an extra set of cultivators that was on a second Cub I purchased a few years ago. One of the front toolbars is somewhat shorter than the other. Were there a short and long toolbar offered? This Cub did not have the rear cultivators but had what I believe is a #6 toolbar on it instead. It has the newer white front mounting frames and mismatched tool bars so I assume someone pieced together the set. Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Below is the Cub 144 Cultivator owner's manual, if you need it. It has lots of info.

Pic would help. There were various configurations of arms from letter and numbers series tractors that would ‘fit’ on the cub frame. But I don’t think they were all offered on the cub. That’s why I pick up other non cub equipment when I can get it cheap, because some of the parts work on cub implements. Checking out the manual Glenn posted will tell you.

Thanks for the replies, guess I will have to learn to read first. It does appear according the the manual that a long and short bar were offered. The short bar was for two sweeps on each side and long one for three on each side. Thanks again.

I have seen many where they were hacked off for whatever purpose

The short bar that I have appears to have been that way from the start, very clean cut and edges beveled. May just cut the other to match it.

The cultivator manual (at least early ones) said to cut off about 2 inches if the tractor had 9-24, 6-30 or 7-30 tires. There was a part number change that suggests they may have started making them a little shorter.
