Question 3 point hitch

I have an 882d and would LOVE to get a 3 point hitch on the back so i can plow with it. Right now it is bare/bone stock with nothing on the back so i would be starting from scratch. I have a few questions about the cubs and the 3 points that go with them. (1)Should i be concerned about plowing with a hydro rear end compared to a gear drive? (2)Where can i get a 3 point hitch and all the extras needed for the installation? (3) Are there any manuals to help in the guidance of installation? (4) What exactly is the CAT-0 or CAT-1 3 point hitch's? (5) does anyone have a 3 point hitch for sale and would be willing to ship? I know there are a lot of questions here but I am very new to the plowing aspect with a garden tractor. I a couple Sears GT's but those 3 points are a lot diff in installation, setup, and overall use from what i can tell when looking at the ones here on the cubs. Thanks in advance!!

1) No. Just make sure that the rearend is clean, cooling fan intact, and mounting bolts tight, as the ones on the aluminum rear like to work loose.
2) If you have the money, xtrememotorworks has an aftermarket one. You can also put a want ad in the forum classifieds, search ebay, etc...They show up cheaper once in awhile. I bought one for my 782D for $375.
3) There are installation instructions that came with the hitch when it was bought from the dealer. I know that the cyclops series service manual also has the instructions. Actually, I think my MTD 82 series manual has it,too. I'm sure Roland or Myron would have a pdf copy of the instructions.
4)

5) I don't, but you might find someone that does if you put a want ad in the classifieds.

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.
