Default kubota diesel to a cub

guys, i've got a chance at a kubota hst 1600 GT for a steal. i am wondering, and i've also searched on here, if that engine would be an easy shoe in for a 128??? and i know somebody will chime in and say "anything is possible". i've just got this 128 laying around not doing anything and thought that might be an interesting project. any thoughts or comments are welcome and appreciated!!!! sorry if this is posted in the wrong section. thanks jeff

Well it's got the same frame as the 782D, 882 so that part should work depending on how much larger (if any) that motor is than the D600. It can hang out the open sides, but I wonder about hood and grill grill clearance. Is the original setup with front or rear radiator?

I'd be happy to do some frame/engine measurements on my 882 if you get serious and think it would help.

it is a rear sitting radiator. it's a tiny motor, but it's a 16hp though. i'm not to familiar with the d600. i'll have to do some research on it. and yeah, i would greatly appreciate the measurements. it's probably not gonna matter, because in between work, yard work,sleep, and eating, i'll shoe horn it in someway. thank god for torches, saws, welders, lathes, and bridgeports!!!! thanks, jeff

A 128 and 882 do NOT have the same frame.

I suspect it would be a tight fit if it fits at all. The 82 series tractors have a lot more room, and it's a tight fit in there to begin with. I have seen a D600B in a QL, but it looked like getting it to fit was a nightmare.

Matt is right. The frame on the 82 series is flared out at the top and the diesels take up the whole area. You would have to make a whole new mounting system to be able to bolt the engine into and I'm not sure the radiator will fit either. Your best bet is to find a 82 series tractor without and engine if you really want to get this engine.

I built this one. It's a 1450 with a 722 kubota, stretched the frame about 4". I put the radiator up front and built mounts similar to the 782D.

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.
