Default 582D planning -clutch and driveline question

Like the title states, I’m planning on building a 582D. I now have everything to do this, but haven’t decided on the driveline. Should I stay with the 1806 style clutch and driveshaft, or go with a Zach Kerber style 3 puck, or something similar? And should I go with a CV/1535 style connection, or just Flex Disc joint it? I have an extra 186X cv driveshaft, but I’m curious if it’s worth the hassle.

Also, I plan on possibly using this to pull a cat 0 plow, will run a creeper, probably use a cast iron trans, possibly with the 30mm cyclops axles, and will probably make it a SGT, implementing hydraulics and power steering.

What say you? Which clutch and is the CV worth the hassle? Also, will I regret the 26” tears with a standard trans, or will I need to re-gear with aftermarket parts? And finally, would I regret using an aluminum case trans, even if I add a brace kit?

I’ll start a build thread for it hopefully in a few months, just trying to plan it out now.

The diesels beat on the drive line. I would use the CV shaft you have. Makes it easier to work on.

What engine are you planning to use?

It’s a D600, I have one from a 1572 I bought a few years ago. That tractor was complete, minus the transaxle. I already have a 982D I built and a running 1572 w/rear PTO, so why not a Super 582D?
I like the idea of a CV vs a rag joint, just wasn’t sure if it was worth the hassle of a custom driveshaft. What about clutch style? Obviously a Zack kerber clutch is stronger, but I’m not building a puller, and I have an aluminum trans 582 parts tractor.

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.
