The cart is the only thing I plan to keep out of the deal, the rest will be sold to re-plentish the tractor fund

Ive never driven a 682/782 and Im not brand bias so I wont try to compare them but I do like this tractor although its a bit big and heavy for a lawn mower, even tho I do like Simplicity decks quite alot, they all seem to leave a very nice finished cut. Would be really nice if I could find a blower or tiller for it before it goes up for sale.

Hope to get the ATV deck fired up this weekend.... it has a quick release system that attaches to the front of a quad, it could likely be mounted to a tractor easily enough as long as the tractor has enough front end weight for steering control

Made alot progress on this 917 lately, fabricated a lower sleeve arm, completely rewired the tractor, replaced a deck bearing, and today I picked up a snowblower for it. Still some minor stuff to do but its a nice working machine now.

...and NO the blower and deck are NOT both mounted... I just lined up the blower to be sure its the correct model for the tractor... it is

But if you could make that work, it would take off that last little bit of snow off the driveway

Still fine tuning the 917, had the steering tore apart the other day for major cleaning and greasing, have to do the same yet with the hydro controls.... drive lever is sticky and the lift one is just sloppy. Have a tiller and cultivator lined up for it, both complete with all the mounting hardware, the tiller is a unique setup but the cultivator is a basic sleeve hitch. Thought I had a parts tractor line up also but it turned out to be an older B-10 model.... $50 as a trade-in so I got it now also.

Got the tiller and cultivator home last weekend, both are complete with mounting hardware as promised. I'll just need a belt and tension spring for the tiller, cultivator is rusty but ready to dig.

Another interesting little tractor landed here today... 1966 Case 150, runs and drives but didnt include any attachments, I have a couple snow blades that might be workable. The POs kids got a little creative with some paint work but I think most of that will come off with just a pressuring.

Actually I just found that the Case I just picked up also has a left side discharge on those decks so its not as uncommon as I thought... but I still prefer it right side.

The AC is very nearly done now, tested everything except the snowblower, all the controls are working like new and it drives/steers nice. Its a very nice tractor to use and a very strong puller. I dont care much for any hand controlled hydro tractors but I would be tempted to keep it if I didnt need cash to work on the Cockshutt. Lol

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.
