Default I just got a 1862
Found a 1862 on CL. PO said it has a broken rod but the power steering, hydro and 46 inch mower work well. We shall see-someday. This may eventually be a candidate for the 18 horse D-662 Kubota that I was going to put in the 782. Then it could be a 1862D.

Thanks Jimbob

The pictures make it look better than it really is. Plastic is cracked in several places and some rust in fenders, but the price was right and it has some desirable features, especially the power steering and CV driveshaft. I plan to pull the engine tomorrow and see how badly it is damaged.

I wouldn't worry too much about the plastic on it, it's a very common problem. I hope you can get it going without too much trouble!

And I hope you have a hand with that engine; they are heavy! I've done the old single cylinder thumpers and the newer Command Twins by myself, but have always needed/wanted a hand when it comes to the Mag's; heavy animals!

Pulled the Mag 18 out of the 1862 yesterday, but didn't have time to tear it down. I hope to do that early next week.

I removed the tins on the Mag 18 yesterday and found a 2 inch by 3 inch hole in the crankcase just above the starter. Someone had epoxied the three broken pieces into the case after a previous thrown rod. The rod currently on that journal found its way out through the same hole. I did not go any deeper after finding that. I intend to finish the disassembly this weekend.

Maybe they epoxied the rod too!

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.
