Default Blade Addition to My 782
Picked up a modified 42” blade with 4” extensions on each end on Saturday. It’s hydraulically activated. It was on a CC 1782 super, so the PO had extended the arms, which I removed.
Got it mounted and started the 782 to find it works as it should. Will be using this instead of my 1947 Farmall Cub to do the driveway. Will see how it does.

I would suggest 2 link chains AND weights AND loaded tires if you haven't already thought of it, or you will not utilize it's full potential.

Am aware of the weight issues Cub Cadets have in heavier snow. Have several sets of chains I purchased years ago. Need to sort through them, get a usable pair, and make the final fit. Have a pair of front end wheel weights from my '48 Farmall Cub that I'll be using on the rear wheels as well. Will probably hold off filling the tires for now...wait and see.

The good thing around these parts is that whatever snow we do get, it usually isn't too much at one time or sticks around very long.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Those rear tires you have on there in the back might just be up to the task without the chains in light/medium snow. Though, I'd put some rear weights back there. In heavier snow, the chains get the job done. This is my experience with 42" blade on gravel driveway. Your results may vary.

I'd put some "Arms" on it like the OEM plows, the quick hitch isn't designed to take the push load.

I thought the same, until I saw the OP was in MO

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.
