Default 782 brake; sleeve hitch
Hello all, new member here. Yesterday I looked at an IH built 782, looks good, runs good, needs some tlc but not bad. One thing that I did notice is that the brake is almost nonexistent- it resets the hydro lever to neutral, (it does creep a little bit) but the pedal bottoms out on the footrest, almost no resistance at all, and the tractor feels like it will roll if you were on a hill. Doesn't see safe.

My Dad and my Uncle both have 1811s, but they have rear discs, and this 782 isn't set up like that.

I crawled underneath and saw what looked like an 'L' shaped piece that goes toward the hydro, what does it do? How does the brake work on the hydros, and if it is a mechanical issue, how much work is it to repair?

Lastly, Dad has a 1650 that's seen its finally days, but it has a sleeve hitch, and he has a tiller and snowthrower for it. Is the sleeve hitch swappable into the 782? Will the tiller and snowthrower mount up? I've read elsewhere that the 1650 is considered a 'wide' frame and 782 a 'spread' frame.

Thanks for the help!

Can't help you on the break issue, but the snowthrower, for sure and tiller should work. I have an 1864 which has the same basic frame style as the 782's to my knowledge, and the snow thrower I have fits from my 1450. A possible hang up, My 18 is at least an inch and a half taller than my 14 which resulted in me building new parallel linkages. I say possible because I don't know the height of the 782. Top cast piece of 3pt will require "Frankenstein" bolts but probably need a different lift arm. If it has a cast iron rear end the tiller should just bolt on. I am speaking cautiously, others know waaaay more. Just trying to help where I can

That setup has an internal brake system that uses a puck against a flat surface attached to the rotating assembly in the transmission. Those are pretty easy to replace or repair. More than likely it just needs adjusted. Secondly, when the brake pedal on a hydro is depressed it will cause the hydro handle to return to neutral. Brakes are rarely used on hydros, but as you say, if parking on a hill you definitely need to have a brake that holds.

On the tiller and snowthrower, you'll have to swap out the drive pulleys with 5/8 inch pulleys. The 82 series uses the larger 5/8 belts. Also as stated before, the 782 would have to have a cast iron rearend for the tiller to work without mods. Good luck.

Thanks everyone for the responses. If the brakes needed to be serviced can they be done without major disassembly? Does the tranny need to come out? Looking at the diagram I thought I saw a screw/jam nut on part #2 in the picture but I didn't get to mess with it and couldn't see what it really adjusts.

Forgot, will the 1650 sleeve hitch swap into a 782?

The 782 had two different rear end versions. Up to chassis Serial Number 719,999, it had a cast iron rear end and any rear implement from the IH offerings would bolt up with no problems. Starting with Serial Number 720,000 & higher CCC went to a Aluminum Rear End and thus requires different attachments, modifications, or home made adapters.

You can service and or replace without removing the tranny. The screw/jam nut is how you adjust the brake.

Our technical libraries have all the manuals you need to be able to work on your Cubs.

Here is the link for the service manual for the 82 series cubs. It should answer most all of your questions.

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.
