I just bought a farmall cub tonight off an online auction with a bunch of fast hitch attachments and it has a super clean fast hitch mower on it like that but has a single wheel like a brush hog on back!

I’m definitely a little jealous of that mower. I’ll have to find me one eventually for my 1960 cub. I do however have the Howard L28 fast hitch rotovator and speed reducer combo. Works excellent in the garden after plowing and discing to get the ground nice and fine for planting things. That’s another somewhat rare and coveted item/combo among cub people.

Cool little mower! My cub seems to like 1st gear as well when mowing with its sickle bar. I’d love to have a fast hitch for mine but, it’s too much of a pain to take the sickle mower on and off. Sure is handy for mowing banks though.

I didn't bother with hunting up a mower for the Cub. So hard to come by. As you pointed out you are power limited, mean the best setup is like 15 hp. I put a hitch on my DR brush mower and tow that. On rough ground it beats the hell out of walking behind it. 16 hp Kawasaki. So I can putt in first gear if its heavy weeds and small trees and it will bash is all up. I also tow it with the ATV now and then. Making do with what ya got is the name of the game.
