782 Diesel swap trouble
Hi! I have a 1982 782 that I am putting a diesel in. The diesel is a Kubota z482 out of a Kubota t1600 lawn tractor. My problem is the radiator and air cleaner hose functioning properly when put the Kubota in my 782, the Kohler Magnum I have in the Cub right now spins the same way as the Kubota engine (counter clockwise). And that is a problem because the radiator and fan is at the back of the Kubota engine (close to the dash and controls) and I really dont want to have to relocate the fuel tank in the 782. Also the 782 has no air screen in the dash tower for the radiator fan to suck air out of. ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED.

I've got a 782D and the radiator is up front to avoid the issues you're discovering. Might be required to re-route the coolant to a front mounted radiator and use electric fans .

I have figured out my own solution in the last couple hours, but thanks for the advice! I am going to install a smaller fuel tank from a Quietline and remove the firewall. That should give me plenty of room to install the engine and any other "accessories" I may install in the future.

Sounds good Luke Workman. I know that you are fairly new to the forum, so it may be helpful for others in the future if you posted pictures of it in a new thread in the "Customized Cub Cadets" section of the forum.

Cast Iron axle tubes vs Cast Aluminum axle tubes
Hello everybody! I was wondering while my tractor is apart if I should swap the aluminum axle tubes in my 782 to the cast iron ones that I have from a 1450 parts tractor. I can't seem to find any information on what grade alloy the axle tubes are made of, but they look to be the same diameter. I have also heard that in general cast iron is 2x as strong as aluminum, so since the axle tubes are the same size the cast iron should be much more superior. The reason I want to swap them is because I'm gonna be putting a Category 0 3 point hitch on my tractor. Thanks for answers!

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.
