Here's a few pics of my freshly painted blade and my weights and chains. The salt spreader still needs painted but that will have to wait for warmer weather. Besides, I want to redo the frame on the spreader. I just threw it together with what I had laying around.

Thanks guys. The blade turned out pretty good considering I brush painted it. It's definately not "show quality". I used Valspar IH white from TSC but I didn't use any hardener so it takes forever to dry. I'm planning on fixing up the mower deck this winter and painting it next spring unless CBH wants to do it.

Painted the rim's yesterday , put the shift lock on .
Then I sold my 2 mtd lawn mowers . Went out today to get some 26x12x12 tires my local tire guy . He called to get me a set of Carlisle's . When he got off the phone , he said that it would be a 2 week's before his supplier would have them . Then he went in his tire storage and bought out a set of Destone tires . He said the lug's were at about a 35 degree angle and that Carlise 's were at a 45 degree angle carlise $ 85.00 Destone's $ 105.00 .
So he said he would sell them to me for the same price as the Carlise's .
Destone's are 8 ply tires . Cariles's were 4 ply . So tires and tubes $ 212.00 out the door .

Anyone use their front blade to move dirt? Today i decided to try and level out a dirt mound in the far back yard with the 782. I locked the trip blade on it but I did let the lift float still since I've never messed with dirt before. It worked pretty well I was impressed. I think I'd like to get ahold of a rear blade and some other rear attachments as well. I just can't stand not staying busy with the cubs.

aagitch,
Never tried pushing dirt with my blade. I have pushed down a pile of limestone.
Worked good.

I am planning to use my Cub and its blade to help re rock my drive way. I used my blade this summer to move a bunch of logs that were to big and heavy for me to lift from a fallen tree. Worked out really well. Its amazing how much traction wheel weights and chains give you.

Default 8 ply tires !!

Went to mount the tires Sunday took 3 hr.s to get one on . No give to the side walls , Stiffest tires's I ever put on . Today went to my freinds , He has a tire machine and the rims were to tall for his machine , but we got the tire on with a lot of work . Only took about an hour since his tire machine was mounted to the floor . I will have to fab somthing up to hold the tire in place next time i do tires .

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.
