Not much to them. What is it you want to know??

Your going to have to modify your 1A though..... the 2B was the only one made to adapt to Cat 0 TPH.

Your going to get more lift and depth with the CAT 0 adapter. You might have to swap out the pulley to 5/8 and find the rare belt but they can be found. Rich Patton had a pulley that would work. Check his eBay store. Depending on which PTO you might have to swap out PTO's to a 4" pulley. I kept my 6" and I love the extra speed it gives me and I saved $330 from not getting the smaller PTO pulley. I just got a longer non CC belt and it's worked great for me.

To make it work you'll need drill two holes and any model and year will bolt up to the cat 0 adapter. Besides the possible PTO swap everything else bolts up without any problems.

All 782's used the 4" pulley.

The 2B had a different shaped lower bracket with addition steel for support, and pins welded on. I suppose you could just drill some holes and slap some bolts in and it would work, but the lower brackets are pretty different.

This is a 2B off of a super. Looks like they just reinforced the corners and added pins for the 3 point arms. The gearbox adapter looks like its quick attach some how to the 3 point plate.

Is that yours?

The 2B wasn't meant for a super. I suppose if you could find a belt long enough it would work though.

Using the above pic and one I found you can see the different shape of the lower bracket.

It was mine, I was told it was used on a super from the guy I bought it from. I didnt have it mounted on any tractors in the time I had it.

I converted my #2 tiller a year ago. Never go back to the old way ever again, no more fighting with that gearbox every spring, and also fighting leaky rearend too.
I can have my tiller mounted and all set up in 20 minutes.... I can till deeper 8" consistantly, plus raise it out of the ground higher too.
