Re: trivia question
What I could remember the first ’55 Cub Lo-Boys’ had the regular finder on it and it was changed after complaints..so I say 1955 International Cub Lo-Boy

Re: trivia question
Was the platform shorten on a low boy, or is the final drive rotated over and to the front, causing the need for the fender to be shorten as well? I have more foot room in front of the fender on a standard cub.

Re: trivia question
The floor board is the same, just took them almost 10 years to figure out that it needed to be cut off

Re: trivia question
I guess part of my question is when they lowered it did that cause the final drive and fender to be shifted to the front> I have not looked at a low boy up close, but could see that pushing the fender forward almost to the front edge of the platform. Just curious.

Re: trivia question
Paul, yes, they rotated the LoBoy finals forward in order to lower the Cub.
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.

Re: trivia question
How many of the cut off fenders have you run into? My '66 (less than 4,000 from the last built) has a full length fender on the right side.

Re: trivia question
Thanks Bill, and Dale,
So that would mean the wheelbase on a lowboy would be about 8" shorter than a standard Cub.

My 65 and 66 LoBoys have the standard fender on them.
