Cub mower question

Postby Jason (IL) » Fri Mar 28, 2014 9:05 pm

Looking at this cub but don't know what type of mower it is. Is this the balanced head style? Or is it rigged up?

Curious before I go look at it.

Thanks

It sure looks like a 105 balanced mower.

What is the give away? I thought it looked a little strange, but comparing the pictures to the parts pages, the brackets and rear drive appeared okay from what I could see in the ad pictures. I have never seen a 105 mower in person, so I could easily be mistaken.

Looks to me like a balanced head mower for a Lo-boy rigged up to mount on a Cub. It may work just fine. Front to back it looks to be in the correct position. Height wise, it looks way too close to the torque tube, which is why it's lifted so high off the ground. Based on that, you would only be able to cut 'level" at about six inches off the ground. However, if you had ditches or banks to mow, it may work just great.
