782 Steering wheel center cap question.
I bought a center cap for my 782 and was wondering if anybody knows what it takes to make it stay in place. It fits in the steering wheel, but is real loose and spins around and would bounce right out if I left it in. Seems as though I might be missing something to make it a nice tight fit. Any help would be great.

how or what do they snap into or to what to cause the tight fit? Is there a lip around your center cap that causes it it snap into the center of the wheel? My cap is smooth all around the edge which will not let it snap into the wheel. Did I buy a bad wore-out center cap or is it possible for them to wear-out?

They don't really 'snap' in. They're an interference fit in the steering wheel. I can't imagine one wearing out...you'd have to sit there and spin it around for quite awhile to wear it enough for that to happen, I would think.

Poor description is not the case. The cap just fits in with no effort and you can clearly spin it with your pinky finger! That is how loose it is. If I were to leave it that way it would be lost the minute my 4 year old son sat in the seat. It will not stay on its own. I bought it used, but dont see how it could be worn.

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.
