Cub cadet 682
 

Hey guys, I looked at a 682. The tractor itself was in Ok shape, with over 1000 hours. But, the motor was completely apart IN his yard. Ive been down that road before and I just don't wanna mess with it. I have a 18 magnum with no home so I figured why not? My question is this: do you guys think a 18 magnum would go into a 682 at all? If it was even close, how much mod. would be needed? Or, am I disrespecting to cub-lord for thinking about a swap?
I told the man that if I could make the swap I would buy it for $100.
Does that sound good? Even with over 1000 hours? :HeadScratch: :Help:
I got pics but lost the camera. :BangPC:

Cub Cadet put a M-18 (Spec No: 24506) into the 1806, 1810, 1811, & 1812 which is just a newer version of the 682/782 models.

There would be a slight modification to the wiring to accommodate the Magneto Ignition system, but other than that it would be a drop in fit.

Thanks for the reply Roland. I forgot to mention that the motor is not from a cub, its from a craftsman. would that make a difference? :bigthink:<a
What are your thought on the roller?
Dont judge me on my photography shills. It was dark by the time we got there and this is the best I could do.

mag 18
 

Hey Cubguy, I'm getting ready to attempt this in a 582 in about a week, waiting on a clutch hub. I think a hydro might be easier. The mag 18 i have is out of an Ayp (sears). The front pto is spaced out and the crankshaft is 3/4" longer than the briggs. Might work or not, might have to try and get the pto back 3/4"and use a spacer on the front. Might try and get the pto off the briggs to work as there both 1" shafts. I'm gonna need manifolds and a muffler. I've got a 16 single i could try but i like a smooth twin for a mower. i'll put a slow 2nd gear in the trans if i keep it for my mower, i like that speed.
Good luck Mike
