Default Differences in the 582

I’ve never heard of a “Special” version. What makes it different?

There were two 582 tractors. They were the 582 and the 582-S (special). IH wanted to offer that model (582-S) for a less money for people wanting to enter the Garden Tractor market.

The 582 & 582-S are identical EXCEPT for their transmissions. The 582 had the standard IH 3 speed transmission. The 582-S had the 4 speed Peerless Transaxle. Since the Peerless Transmission was a "lighter duty" and less money to buy than build the IH standard, wha-la it was put into the 582.

Were the Peerless transmissions really that bad?

I don't think there were terrible at Plowing earth Got a friend and that's a Major Part of His collection 1100, 482, 582S, 1204, 1604 His Primary Plowing tractor is a 482.

The 482 was a tractor he bought new in 1981

His cultivating & snow thrower Tractor is a 1212 or an 1812 and Like's to Plow snow with a 1604

I really think it just drives some Cub owners Nuts because there not fully shaft drive and they Had B&S engines

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.
