Default New to me 1782

Hi Guys

My FIL just recently gave me his old 1782. It’s a little rough but runs pretty good. The fuel solenoid shutoff is now manual, the exhaust manifold is missing 2 bolts with no gasket, the seat is beat and it starts hard in the cold (glow plugs?). I’ve ordered a new seat, solenoid, manifold and gaskets/hardware, dash label, grille and a block heater. There is also a little leak somewhere in the rear end. Should be pretty nice all fixed up.

Has anyone installed a block heater on one of these? Just looking for tips. I’ll get some pics of the rear end when I get it cleaned up.

Here it is covered in road crud. Will wash tomorrow.

Thanks in advance

Looks like a beast.

If that has the same Kubota as the 782D/882 I can recommend doing the glow plug upgrade with 12v relay bypass if applicable. Of all the things I've done to my 882 to help with cold starts, this one had the most impact.

My model has the D640 engine. Can I just replace the glow plugs on this or does it need the relay and solenoid upgrade? Seen some posts about that. The starter seems good, although I’ve read the new one crank it over better, but might need to do some fabrication on the bottom plate.

Going to have a local shop sandblast the mower deck and snowblower (which has net been used), then prime and paint it myself. Going to get a new HVLP gun this week. I’ll post some pics.

Very Nice!! You will enjoy that beast!

I was able to remove my driveshaft without moving the engine or transmission.. it was tight but I managed to get it out.. mine needed new boots on the CV joints and i did the belt while i was there!

What he said.

Only thing I can add was removing the oil filter on the rear end gave more room to get the drive shaft out and back in. Time it right and dump the rearend oil at same time.

Nice smoker! I think they changed the gp's on the 1782 to take the full 12 vdc by looking at the schematic.

The 1772 and prior built had the resistor in series with the gp's dropping the voltage to the plugs.

It still wouldn't be a bad idea to use a solenoid to keep all that current out of the key switch. Just use the orange wire that attaches to your gp's now to energize the solenoid.

Don't buy any Kubota parts from Cub Cadet. I get all my Kubota parts from Messicks. http://www.messicks.com/ Get the part number from PartsTree and then take the "KB" off of it and use that number on the Messicks search.

Oh ya, we like pictures so keep us posted of your progress.

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.
