No I understand what they're technically for, I just can't fathom a situation a garden tractor would need brake steering for. I guess when you have the little one bottom plow on it, but other than that probably nothing else.

The rear cat 0 lift will cost another $400-$600 to add on and another $500-$700 for the rear PTO. Cat 0/2000 RPM implements are hard to find too.

There are several good Onan parts sources out there.

But hey, it's an IH built 982.
Yeah it's bare bones. I'm still gonna get it cause like you said, IH built CC and I'll after-market the 3-pt and PTO once I find an actual implement for it. Should only need the valves replaced and a new paint job. But that's the lie we all tell ourselves getting into a new project.
