The important thing to note about the 782 and the 1811 is that while they are the same tractor, they are a little different. The late 782 and the 1811 are the same. *Most* 782's have a cast iron rear (later ones didn't). All 1811's have an aluminum rear. The issue is that the aluminum rear won't accept the bolt on gear box. You can't even drill the gear box mounting to go on. The frame work for the box is in the way to drill it for the aluminum rear. So, all you are doing is making a plate that is very close to the rear end, so that the box can be bolted on. Now... that's all you really have to do. I made a quick mounting system so that I could easily remove the tiller, but that isn't necessary. Make sure that whatever you make is bolted to the frame, and the sides of the trans case, preferably through the lower axle mount bolts. Don't use the bolts on the rear cover. The other issue you will encounter is that it will take a longer than specified belt. You will also need the 5/8" pulley on the lower tiller gear box pulley. I'm sure you know, but you will need a sleeve hitch set up off of an '82 series hydro tractor. (682/782). It's really not a difficult build at all.

Ahhhhh, I'm starting to get the picture now! Thanks for the detailed description. I think I now can get it from here. Do you think 1/4" plate is heavy enough? Or should I go a little heavier?

I used 3/16". We're not pulling big equipment here. Look at the frame on the tractor. It isn't even 1/4". 3/16" plate is heavy enough.

Great. I can get to it now, and see what I can come up with. Boy wants to break some ground for a garden this fall and get the soil ready for planting in the spring. Pressure is on! Thanks again

Better get a plow. Tillers don't break ground very well at all.
Might in the spring when it's soft.... but not now.

X2, have done this many times and it just beats the living piss out of everything. Actually either get a plow or a field cultivator. Well they're not really a field cultivator there just a coil tine more like a chisel plow. Hang weights off of them and you can sink it in farther than the tractor will pull it.

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.
