Joe, as per advice I got here - went to my local hardware store and got one - it's just a regular pipe plug. Not quite the same as the original one I had on (that fits a 3/8" ratchet) but works fine. The outside of my new one takes either a 12-point 11/16" socket or else (I think) a 9/16" open end. Check out the thread I started about this on the "wanted items" section of the forum. I posted a link to a used plug on eBay that is exactly like the original. Figured I'd go new though - was interested to see what sort of pipe plugs they had anyway. I'm fortunate in that our local hardware store has a great supply of plumbing-related equipment.

Well I started to look into what else needs done on my 127 and I saw that the Flywheel pulley was loose. Not good! So after I took the belt off I was able to move the Flywheel fore and aft a good 1/4". And when I took the S/G off one of the 2 bolts holding it on was broke off inside. So I took the bracket off and got the bolt out. And i can see the Flywheel was chewing away the bolt head on the upper S/G bracket. I can hardly wait to see what lurks after I take the PTO off.
Well I was getting jealous watching everyone else working on there cubs so I didn't want to feel left out. To be continued! Maybe wrong thread. https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/...attach/jpg.gif |

I should have taken some pictures, but with all the hard work, I didn't think of it. We were offered for free 2 acres of electric fence wire, T posts and wooden posts, if we come and remove them. It was someone who just bought the house and wanted the fence taken down to install a new different fence. So I gathered tools together that I thought I would need, and I had a thought, I should take my 782 with the sleeve hitch to lift the posts out of the ground. So I loaded it up on my trailer also. After lots of hand rolling all the fence wire (7 wires around the 2 acres) my wife and I together, we began yanking posts. I backed up to each post that couldn't be pulled by hand and wrapped a chain around them in a hitch knot and hooked to my hitch and hit the lift and it pulled them out with ease. The heavy wooden posts were more work, and we had to leave some behind. But I got quite a few out. They were 3' in the ground, and it took a few bites to get those out. It took half the day saturday and all day sunday, but we got it. The job would not have been possible without the old 782... she's a keeper. Two different neighbors stopped by to say they enjoyed the show.
Here's a picture from after some hard work the previous weekend. IMG_4249.jpg

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.
