Default 782 hydro help needed
Today, I was out moving a big pile of dirt, stumps an rocks with my 782. I have set it up for winter with the plow, wheel weights, some rear end weight and chains. I was working the thing real hard and the tires where digging in no spinning. At one point when I went to back away from the pile, it was stuck into reverse. When I went to hit the brake it just kept going. I had to push the control way past neutral towards the forward position to stop it. So I get it into the shed to do the hydro neutral adjust which I just did about a month ago on my other 782 with great success. But not so much with this one. With the tractor jacked up and the cam bracket raised all the way up it still wants to go in reverse very minimal if you tap the bracket down much worse so up is the way it should go. At this point I can not go any higher. So I played with the speed control linkage an got it better but not perfect like it was. So my question is why did this happen my first thought the cam bracket bolts were loose but they were very tight. An why I can not get it adjusted back to the way it was.

Never heard of a weld break on the swash plate bracket where it comes out of the hydro, but start checking it and any differences you might see compared to your other 782.
Are the cushion springs intact on the lever? sounds like something broke or moved that normally gives no problems.
Lucky you have one to compare too!!

I had a similar thing happen to mine once where the retaining clip came off from the shaft below the swash plate shaft and then the assembly slid towards the frame which caused the middle section with the springs to sit a bit off from perpendicular from the trunion assembly. This allowed the springs to jam up and then the neutral was all out of whack! Of course i was quite a bit away from the house with no tools but i was able to nurse it up to the garage to take a gander on what was up with the controls.

Take a look at all of the assembly that moves when you move the lever. Take your time and study it; you'll figure it out.

It is also called a trunion bracket,--- the bracket that the springs are in is welded to a shaft that goes into the hydro that controls it.Somebody will post a pix maybe, I not so good @ that on here.

Trunion bracket is welded to a shaft that is attached to the swash plate in the hydro.
Sorry, didn't mean to confuse you, poor choice of words on my part.

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.
