I know the aluminum would be very pricy. I have no idea about pricing on castings, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised if I got a quote for $300+.

Found it. This is a 1440.

Take a closer look at the dash, you have to swap out the dash towers as well to make it fit.

I am pretty sure he had to change the dash tower and the steering column as well.It is not a cut and dry swap but will be doing the same conversion on my 1641 this spring. That looks so much nicer than plastic junk that was on there.

Yeah, I saw that. Hydraulic lever, among other things, is a dead give away. Still not a bad option though.

Here is his before pic.

It looks like the spool valve needs changed too. Will that work on a tilt column?

This is where Cub/MTD stinks! You would think they would still make these parts available but they don't. Most of the 3k decals are already NLA. I guess they are still thinking you throw them away after 5 or 10 years and buy another.

I'm in the process of changing a Cyclops over to the 82 series sheet metal. The dash towers are definitely different. I'm doing it the hard way. I'm modifying the Cyclops dash tower to accept the 82 series parts. This way I'll retain the tilt column and the Cyclops hydraulic controls.
It's been a challenge, but I think the end result will be worth the effort.

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.
