Default 782 vs 1862 questions

I may have a opportunity to buy a 1862 for a pretty good price. Would that motor slip right in a 782? Also would there be other things that could be use full for a 782. Like the hydro, power steering ect? Thanks

Basically the same tractor. Engine is a bolt in swap but the wiring is a little different. 1862 has a better drive shaft which you should use. Do a search for Magnum swap into a 782. Lots of information available.
The power steering can be used but the steering shaft and tube has to be lengthened on the 1862 PS unit to fit the 782. All the hydraulic lines can be used but the end fittings may need to be modified to fit the 782. You will never regret going to power steering.
I'd use the 1862 as is for a while just to check out the engine, etc.

I bought a 1864, it's just grown from there. The Cubs have replaced old Chevys as my hobby/passion. The only car I have left is a '67 Chevelle wagon.
Seems like a good trade off. I can put five Cubs where one car sat and there are no titles or license to fool with!

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.
