I suppose I’ll just have to cut off the stock bulb pigtails and buy/install new glass sealed beam lights and retainers. Do you have a picture of a tractor with those sealed beams/retainers installed by any chance? Thank you guys for all your help.

I could be wrong on this but i dont think that 2084s had that style pigtail and bulb socket from the factory. Does the wiring look factory? Maybe someone else can verify this?

I’m no help on what came on from the factory, but really it’s a matter of which style was put on what years.
2082 I had was socket type
2182 with no flares and metal tunnel- socket type
2182 flares and plastic tunnel- glass headlights

The only one I’m kinda sure was the 2082. It was the oldest.

I believe all the replacement service grill shells were made for the sealed beams... so if it came with the early style and somebody broke it the replacement would have likely been the later style.. the original style plug in bulbs don't put off much light.. the sealed beams do much better for me.. I have both styles...

Also, if you're getting new sealed beams and not a purist, consider going to LEDs, as they are much brighter.

This is what I LOVE about this site, that no matter what I run into with one of my Cubs there is someone on here who can lend a friendly, helpful and professional hand. Many thanks again my friends. I’ve never seen the LED lights. I believe that I will go that route. Any suggestions on where to go to get these?

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.
