Looking for Photo of Cub with Rolling Cultivator

[WPMinor]

I am half way through rebuilding a pair of 5 gang rolling cultivators that I want to install on the front (extension) tool bar of my cub. I am looking for a photo of anyone with a Cub with rolling cultivators mounted from under the front of the Cub. I've been told they are probably "too heavy" and "too tall" but I'm not sure that's from someone who has tried to install them. They are heavy but I can lift them and carry a gang of them across the yard. They probably weigh 60 to 70 lbs. My main pair has tine diameter of 14- 1/2". My back up 5 gang set is a little over 10" in diameter (Perhaps worn shorter, not certain) If they prove to not have enough clearance I plan to try the smaller set. I know rear mount is an option with more clearance but really want to run them in the front. I intend to let them trail to the rear to allow more clearance. I scoured the internet for photos of this setup on a cub (not found any) and watched all of Joey (JTWess) Youtube videos with on a 140 (which I don't have yet.) I've read every previous thread on this forum on this topic but still, no one has posted a photo them set up on a cub. Thanks in advance and thanks to those who have answered my previous question on this.

How about posting a pic or two of what you have, to give us all a idea of what your talking about!

I have saw lots of pics of what one might call "rolling" cultivators on the net!

Looking forward to seeing what you have!

Site sponsor TM Tractor has lots of photos of implement setups on their website. Not sure about that one in particular, though.

This is an example looking front to rear of a pair on a 140.

I guess those are Lilliston cultivators!

I would love to try them too!

Looks like they would be deadly on clumps and clods

Thanks for sharing. I tried to post pics of my Cultivator(s) but iphone photo is too large to upload. I have a pair of 14 1/2" diameter 5 gangs and pair of five gangs that have a diameter of about 10 inches. Those in the photo you shared look more like the 10" pair I have. I will try the bigger set first and see how it works but if I have any clearance issues, I will switch to the smaller diameter pair.

Yea...... That is a problem around here. Lots of folks never figure it out and dont post pics.

I text them to a friend and have him send them back to me. Then I save the pic they returned, and can post it just fine

What I do is use duckduckgo.com for searching, and searched for; farmallcub.com rolling cultivators using the pictures part of the search, scrolled through till found the pic above, then linked up that pic and the topic it was posted in.

I was not even a member back then.

I would think the 10 inchers more appropriate for the Cub
