Default 782/1711 restoration
Getting started on my 1711 that I'm calling a 782 which it will be since I'm painting it RED! I started by taking off the fenders and then broke the rearend away from the frame. I'm surprised that even though is a 85 model, CCC already started to cheapen them up. What I mean by that is aluminum rearend, no protection between the battery and the rear tires and also the starter seloniod is right above the left rear tire where there is no protection. Going to try to take the engine out tomorrow!

I think he means he separated the two.

I knew someone would paint their 1711 red before I could.

Yeah, I seperated the rear from the frame last night, there isn't anything broken. The bolts sure were tight though!

I took the engine out of it today. That was a real PAIN, all the bolts were tough all the way off. Also took the rear tires off the rear end. Tomorrow I'm going to pressure wash everything so hopefully by friday night or monday night I'll be able to paint the black (rear end, front axle and tower) Pics later tonight

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.
