Is this what the engine mount plate is for that I just sent out this morning?

Yup it was.

I used part of a cut off 2185 driveshaft and the original 82 drive shaft and slid the 82 shaft into the 2185 shaft, so the rear was the original connection and the 2185 end went to the engine. That was on a 682 though, the 1872 would be longer and I’m not sure if that’s work. I don’t have that tractor anymore.

I take it the 2185 is hollow, and happens to be the same ID as the OD of the 682/1872?

It is hollow, but I do not believe the solid shaft is a tight fit to the hollow one. I would get a hold of Jeff in PA for some help.

Jon actually the 2000 series shaft is a nice snug fit to the 5/8" shaft used on most older Cubs. That's what I did on my 149 at the engine end. The 149 drive cup was shot as was the end of the drive shaft. Once I got the length as I wanted it I marked it, pulled it out of the tractor, drilled it and put a 1/4" spirol pin in it. Then I reinstalled it.

I never tried it. I knew someone had, but couldn't remember any details. I had it in my mind that it was close, but not a tight fit. Good to know.

Sam, have you concocted any way to use this ides at the other end of the driveshaft to eliminate the rag joint? In other words is there any kind of coupler that can go on the hydro shaft that will bolt up to the barrel housing?

Jeff in PA makes the pump adapters that allow you to use the 2000 series or the CV style drive shafts. 1st pic is the type needed for something like a 782 with a 5/8" round shaft with the spirol pin, the 2nd is for the Supers or Cyclops that have the 5/8" nine spline shafts.

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.
