Tore the 782 apart to find the oil leak. It's the front seal. I have another post covering that.

So, since the 782 is down, and it's the snowblower tractor, I decided to pull my 1450 out of the barn and put the blade on it. So, I took the rototiller off of the 1450 (not too bad a deal, 4 pins, the belt, and your out) and put a front wheel from my SO76 on it, since I took the rim apart to put in a new tube, and had not bought the tube yet. I never noticed until today that the front wheels on a 782 are a larger axle than a 1450. I also had to put the rear wheels with the chains on the 1450 since I don't have chains for the smaller rears. I have not yet installed the weights, as I am going to try without for now in hopes the 782 is up and running soon.

So, my 1450 has a donut spare on it now (rigged with washer spacers) and a blade from a 782 on it, which seems to fit funny and not lift high enough. The donut will come off tomorrow after I purchase a new tube (after church). The poor 782 looks awfully funny with the skinny rears.

But, I got 4 hours of cub time today. If it wasn't for snow in the forecast, I probably would have just waited to fix the 782.

CBH,124 and cart look good. Looks like you lost all your snow too.

Nice job, camarokid! Looking forward to your progress pics. :ThumbsUp:

Tried to mount the pump for my FEL for the fourth time.:bash2: What a PITA!

It's a beautiful day here in NC, so I got a hankering for some seat time...LOL. Been in the yard half the day. Nothing like a great day with your Cub Cadet! :IH Trusted Hand:

camarokidz28,
The VEE-MONSTER is really looking good. :ThumbsUp:


ACecil,
Must be nice to have 65 degrees :biggrin2.gif:
Cool nite pictures. I think thats the first time i have ever seen the lights on the 100. Looks great :IH Logo:

I have to agree! It looks awesome with the lights going at night. It must also be awesome to have 65degrees.

Great pic.

Thanks guys! :beerchug:

comaro you just gave me a great future idea for my 109 lol.

Got the were bars on the V plow today . Now all i need is some snow .
Diz JR next project will be the 6 wheel wagon .

camarokidz28,
Can't wait to see pictures of the VEE-MONSTER in action :ThumbsUp:

I am trying to think of a good monster name for the wagon, cause i am sure if its going to have 6 wheels it will need a good name :biggrin2.gif:

Yes it will Diz JR.

Worked on the cub trailer
 

Diz JR started on the monster trailer today . Need a few steel parts yet .

camarokidz28,
That is going to be so cool !!!
Different configuration than i was thinking.
You are really going to be able to put a load on that one :ThumbsUp:

Diz JR .What configuration was you thinking

When you said 6 wheel wagon, i was thinking all three axles close together. I like your idea a lot better. It really looks great :ThumbsUp:
I should have known it was going to be bigger than my imagination :biggrin2.gif:

Diz JR . Humm sounds like a furture project . the reason i made this is i had those tires and rim's just setting in the way and i thought a big trailer / wagon would come in handy for brush , and i liked the look of the hay / straw wagon's we have around here . with the twin axle's in back . How about a 8 wheel wagon with the 2 fronts that steer . only need 4 more tires and rim's . I got to stop bulding for a bit so i can get started on my 100 restoration .

Cool looking trailer, camarokid! Keep the progress pics coming. :ThumbsUp:

Took my wife for a nice country ride. Got this neat pic of the 100! :beerchug:

http://i487.photobucket.com/albums/r..._0825Small.jpg

That is a great picture of the 100 ACecil :ThumbsUp:
Looks really tough from that angle :biggrin2.gif:

Thanks Diz! My wife tried a different camera angle. Didn't she do great! :ThumbsUp:

She sure did !
A really cool picture. Even got the rain cap up in the air :biggrin2.gif:

Thanks Diz! :ThumbsUp:

Yep ACecil, that is one good lookin' little tractor. I like the stack, the dual wheels, the seat, the used look, the lights.............!!!
When are you going to post some action shots in the snow?! :biggrin2.gif:

starting them off early
 

had my 2 and half year old son helping me today with "daddies tractor"

Looks like you have yourself a future Cub Cadet mechanic!

Thatz so cool when they help,my 3 soon to b 4 yearold loves getten in there n gettin dirty. his mom isn't as fond of the idea when it comes time to get cleaned up.:biggrin2.gif: Is that a 1415 in th e back round,how do u like it ? I just bought one last fall . going threw it now so it s ready for spring.:bouncy:

Put a set of chains on the 109 with the V plow . Ground is soggy now with the warm weather and rain we got 46 deg's , but is going back to 28 deg's tonight . 40 percent chance of snow monday . I can only hope for a chance to try out the V plow .

Great pics, dleblossom! :beerchug:

Thanks CBH! I don't know, if we'll get any snow this Winter. If we do, I'll definitely get some snow pics. Here's some from last January. :ThumbsUp:
