Default Adding hydraulics to 1811

I picked up a dual hydraulic valve and all the hoses, and want to add this to my 1811.

Whats the minimum tear down to make this a rational install? I would like to avoid a total tear down right at this point in time.

If I was doing it I would pull the hood, engine, fire wall and gas tank.

Yep, what Sam said. The pressure and return lines to the hydro are also different on a dual spool because the lines enter the side of the valve body so you're going to have to fab something up there too if you didn't get the lines with the valve.

Thanks guys.

I do have the lines.

Was wondering if I could get away without pulling the engine. But I think Sam has it down. And the fenders need to come off as well to get to the hydro lines (which need swapped)

So add it all up and its going to take more than an hour.... A weekend for me.

You should be able to just pull the tunnel cover off and change the lines.

you dont have to pull the fender pan off. But the engine should come out it would make it much easier to put the valve and lines it. I did that last winter. while I was at it I pulled the shields off the engine and cleaned the fins out. Good thing I did it was packed with crap and a mouse nest.

I managed to get it far enough in pieces I think I can get to it all now. It was more than I expected, would have preferred to only take a few pieces off.

ok, not really. That pic is a different project. But for those wanting reference pics here are a couple more. I will try to take step by step when I tear into the real project.

(you see the dilemma, I can either put this tractor back together, convert the 1811 to dual hydraulics, or just go without angling the blade this winter (or gads, get off the seat and change the angle manually....)

One little tip, remove the plate that the engine mounts to. Bolt it back on the engine. Much easier to install the engine that way. It's only held in the frame by six 3/8" bolts.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
