What up guys !! Hard to believe there is a Forum for about anything you want to do or talk about !!! I was gladly shocked when I found this Forum !! I live in a small town in Va called Wise ! Im 45 min from Tenn.... and 30 min from Kentucky !! Im an hour and 15 min From Bristol motor speedway... Now... You know where I am !!! Ive been a heavy equipment opr for most of my life !! Spent about 17 years on a D11 !! that's a Cat Dozer !! lol !! Now I work in Pikeville Kentucky selling cars !!! Over the past month I have ended up with 2 Cub cadet mowers !!! One of them is a 782D !! I'll hush for now but I got a lot of questions that I will Probably need to start a thread for ... Just wanted to thank the bosses here for having me and wanted to say Hello to everyone !!!

Welcome to OCC!

Welcome to OCC! Let's see some pics of your D :beerchug:

Welcome to occ.


That just sounds dirty.:biggrin2:

Welcome to OCC. I'm in Galax, about 130 miles from you. Used to own a quarry in CT before I retired and moved south. I do know what a D11 is. Played with one at the Cat proving grounds about 25 years ago. Owned a few 980C loaders.

Is that John Force standing next to that dozer? :biggrin2:

Lol. :High5:

Yours truly many years ago. Make that many, many years ago. :biggrin2:

That's cool Sam.

What a nice warm welcome !!!! Cool !! I promise pics soon !! Sam... Been to Galax a buch.. Or by there I should say , I'm going to need parts for the diesel mower... The deck is apart. Bearings down... Blade bearings.. The model number for the diesel is..... 144882399. Maybe y'all can tell me what year it is... I will go this eve and get pics.... I will post them in the morn... Thank you all so much !!!

And I believe that is John force now that I look real close

Your 782D was built in either 84 or 85.

Hope its ok to post these pics her.... If I can pull this off !! Both of these mowers are very Barn Fresh... Not even washed the dirt off yet... I did crank and drive the one with the blade

the blade bearing... pic... is what the Diesel needs !! Can I find those ?

And sorry bout the walk behind pic... That's what I mow with !! :bash:

The yellow cub appears to be a model 100 with fenders off a 122 and hood decals from a 108/9, congrats on the diesel.

I have the deck off the 100 as well... but I will never use it !!! I blade on there will come in handy I hope !

One of the pics is of a blade bearing... Can I still get those ????? Best I can tell that's the only reason the man parked this mower !! The deck is laying in the building with the mower and two of the bearings are out of it !!! The man that owned the mower was the Vet here in town and he passed away about three months ago !! His wife says when the deck went down he went and bought a Dixon mower that she is still using... Said the diesel hadn't been cranked in 4 or 5 years !!! I think all I need is bearings for the deck !! :bigthink:

No problem replacing the deck bearings. Post this question in the implements section. There is currently a thread going about the very same thing. Cool thing about Cubs is that you can get just about every part need to keep them going even back to the very first Cub. Any of the 1996 or older Cubs were built to be rebuildable.

Here is the thread about the deck bearings.
