Cub 5252
Looking for a source for a hydraulic blade angling kit for 5252 or even suggestions on how to build one. Can't figure why Cub would build a front hitch with no angling capabliltiy.

Hey Cub5k,

I was curious so I checked out the Cub website.
Here are some pics of the hitch, blade and angle assy.

Probably none are still available, so you'd need to start regular searches of Ebay, Craigslist....

I didn't check out Ohioguy's pics, but Cub did make an angling kit for the front blade, model # 590-623-100. I have one for my 5234 and love it. You could probably get a couple of cylinders, hoses, fittings and do the same thing. There might be some out there, but you'll have to hunt to find one.....probably sitting on a Cub's back shelf and they've forgotten about it.....
Good luck!

Thanks for the help guys. I've had an ebay search running for about 6 months now with no hits other than for operators manuals. Seems like the only thing to do is build it myself.
