In need of any info about mounting cultivators on a model B. I have a 1952 model with hydraulics
and the cultivators that came with it were in a big pile, parts here, parts there. Pictures would be extra nice.

Thanks, Craig

Having 2 B's plus growing up on one, I'll give this a shot.
First, remove the drawbar - a bolt and a pin retainer on each side.
The frame - At the rear is an arch, at the front are two "L" shaped brackets with bolt holes or slots. The front brackets mount to the torque tube just behind the motor - usually the brackets are slotted so you can start the bolts then slide the brackets over them. Assuming you have a manual lift (I have never seen a hydraulic one) cultivator, there are lift arms that will mount to the cross tube / fender support, usually with a little hand wheel. The correct technique is to lay the cultivator down and back over it (carefully) until the lift levers can be pulled up in fornt of the crosstube. Then position it to mount to the torque tube, then the rear. The arch goes behind and between the rear wheels and the extensions go behind the rear wheels.
The shovels use tube clamps and bolts to mount wherever you want on the frame. Normally you cultivate behind the wheels and in the center, set it up to take two rows under the tractor. I also have seen behind the wheels with a single row down the center. Shovel location and tractor wheels can be adjusted to give spacing. I used one of these as a boy and have one now, but my Troy-bilt Horse is much handier in the garden. No pix as #2 is out at my dad's plowing snow and #1 is torn down in the garage - I'm "hot rodding" it since it is not original enough to restore ( a 1939 with belt/PTO/Hydro, CE motor, and foot brakes - one suspects the trans was replaced).
To operate, get going, then use the lever to lower the shovels.
If you do have a hydro cultivator set, I'd be interested ins seein the linkage - I suspect it uses the rear rockshaft like a plow.
