Default 1882 Project Super Size Me!

Finally found a "super" size Garden Tractor and couldn't pass it up. It's a 1882.

I put a hot battery in it and did get it to fire. But I think the carb needs a good cleaning. It say for 4 years according to the seller.

The deck spins good.

Allegedly he quit driving it because the power steering started getting stiff. After taking the shaft cover of last night, I see that I have a long road ahead of me to fix leaks and all. It didn't look like the filter had been changed in years. Couldn't even see it! Lol.

I also noticed that it has the wrong size tires on the front. It has 16's and should be 18 inch tires. Also on my list to get some new tires to go in it.

I found a 26x12-12 industrial tire on sale at wally world and ordered another to match for the rear. I tried to mount it at home last night. No luck at all. 8 ply is very stiff.

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.
