In Reply to: Adding a 1 point fast hitch to a 53 Farmall Cub... posted by Jesse on November 13, 2003 at 09:55:18:
Jesse: I have not tried this with a cub, however it should work as tractor design is the same. I did this with a Super A using a hitch from a 130. The only problem I ran into was for the spring assist that helps hydraulics with lifting the hitch. The Super A was drilled in torque tube for mounting one end of spring. The rockshaft however did not have a hole for the other end of spring. I had to change the rockshaft also. I did run it for awhile without the spring, and I'm not sure it helps that much anyway. Your best bet is to do a very close comparison of your tractor and one built after 1955. I saw this yesterday but held back thinking someone who had actually done a cub would respond, and maybe they will yet. My best guess is if you run into problems, it will not be mounting of main structure but rather a minor item as I did with Super A.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
