Brent,

Where the tractor WILL break is where the radiator tank bolts to the engine. Breakage at this point is common even without loaders. With a loader mounted as this one is is clearly a disaster waiting to happen. The loaders that were mildly successful (it took them longer to break the tractor) had a sub frame to take some of the load off the weak point. Even they broke Cubs because of the load on the weak point from the wheel hitting obstacles. GET THAT THING OFF THE TRACTOR BEFORE THE ENGINE IS RUINED!!!

I'm not sure, but I suspect that mower was never intended for a regular F-Cub. It looks to me like a mounting for a Lo-Boy.
