Maybe that’s why the muffler outlet rubbed into the grille. not sure why a PO would have put spacers in. Weird.

Both my Ih & CCC 782's have spacers under the engine between the M-18's & mounting plate.

I compared the mounting plates. They’re identical. The plate in the IH has wear marks on it from the bottom of the engine block. So it had been that way for a while at least. I’m thinking about just leaving them. I was just going to swap over the engine on the plate and be done.

Mine have all had spacers. 2- 782s, 1710 and 1811. Think the 1861 does as well.

I’ve had at least 6 of the 82 series with Kohler motors and this is the first one I saw that had spacers.

I believe they all left the factory with spacers.
IIRR,
some years ago on this forum, we discussed making them and discussed the sizes, hell, it might of been me.
But I think if you look up parts on cub or parts tree, they show them.

It is possible fellows just leave them out when swapping engines, or lost them so just eliminate them.
All 4 spacers are the same size.
Not difficult to install, just set engine on spacers and bolt down to plate, then install plate/engine in tractor.
Maybe the factory wanted to make the rag joints in better alignment?
or possibly a different engine didn't require them, like say a single cyl??
I'd have to do some research on the crankshaft to mounting base specification of a single or a twin briggs like the 582 possibly??

I’ve seen them on the newer cyclopses with command and vanguard engines. I’ll leave them in there, easier for me and probably right. Maybe I should put some on my 1912 with the mag if it helps the rag joints.

Everything i've had had spacers,KT's, M-18 even the 582 Briggs. I'm thinking they helped air flow around the engine. Mike

check if partstree/cub show them as originally installed under the onan.
-----that might be a clue.
Or maybe check specks of center of crank to mounting feet dimensions, and
compare to the twin kohlers.

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.
