Murphy, it probably didn't have turning brakes. Those were a option on the 982.

You have to network. Hit the auctions, garage sales. Craigslist. Hang out with the pulling guys. They are always stripping chassis and throwing parts to the side. Even Ebay comes thru from time to time. You don't even need a dual spool to run front hydraulics. Just "T" off at the valve and run the new hoses forward. I mean whats the chances you'll be running front and rear implements at the same time ?

The chances are very good actually. The front ports are generally used on power angle front blades. You need separate hydraulics to lift it and then to angle it.

Thats true AJ. I was referring to a front power lift with manual angle. Your setup is ideal but does require dual spools . By the way, your Cub in the avatar portrays the perfect stance. Can't quite put a finger on it. Just looks right. The Super Cub is a beast !!! Is it not ?

Dang!
Talk about a month and a half late! I would have zapped that one right up. I had to drive out to Arkansas to buy my 982 last summer and I'll tell you that little tractor will easily out perform my 185 cutting grass. Those garden tractors were made to fit big people it's quite comfortable

I know of one for sale in IL. It's in a good friend of mine's barn. He changed out the Onan for a KT 18.

They are fun tractors. I like the Red one's better.

From my Cub Cadet books in 1980 IH wanted to make all of their tractor lines have the same color and styling so for 1.5 years the were red only. When IH sold off the line to MTD calling themselves a seperate entity the red ones were made for IH dealers and the yellow & white ones were made for Cub Cadet dealers.

Default interesting!!

Spent the last few hours trying to find some info on latest find..learned allot here. I just happened to pick up a 982 today. Didn't know much about them though. This one is basic, 50" deck, no dual brake, rear PTO, or extra hydraulics. Thought it was Kohler powered, but I guess it's an Onan?? Couple of things need attention (probably going to need some help), but seems to be a nice tractor. I own a few yellow and white tractors, but this is my first red one. It is a super size. I'm over 6' and it fits great. I will post pics later.

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.
