Dragged home a 2182 with 60" deck
Well, I've been out of the game a bit, with no time for working on Cubs except maintaining my own workers. I haven't brought anything home in over a year. Yesterday I saw a 2182 pop up that was quite cheap, that came with a 60" deck, and 54" blade. So I went and got it and brought it home on a whim (and drove through severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings to get it!). It has many new parts, been well maintained... but it has a driveshaft issue that was the last straw for the previous owner and he decided to sell it and get a new Kubota. Basically it came lose, ate the fan and knocked off one of the hydro lines. I haven't dug into it too much yet, because the shaft is already out if it. But I think it came loose off the input shaft by the looks of it. It has 2300 hours on it, but I don't know that that's bad for a well maintained Kubota engine... the engine is clean, but I don't know much about them and for the price I was interested in messing with one. The hood is basically gone, the typical plastic fractures. I've been very partial towards the 82 series around here, so I was considering transplanting the Kubota into my 1912 since my M20 is starting to smoke under load, but this has a new power steering cylinder and recently rebuilt steering gear, and I would have to switch around the gas tank and all that. So I'm thinking about what to do with it... I've been in contact with Jeff about parts for the driveline to figure out that aspect of it. I'll attach some photos once I get it all unloaded and stuff.

Calm down Oak.
 The driveshaft has some dings on the ends of the splines (5th picture) so that’s why I’m thinking it came loose from the input shaft of the hydro, and the fan shredded itself on the hydro lines. The rear tires are Carlisle Garden Master and are windshield washer fluid filled. I’m not sure if I’ll keep them filled… will washer fluid eat the rims?

And we have carnage! It appears the bolt that holds the coupling to the input shaft is snapped off and that’s why the driveline went all wobbly. I don’t know if it backed out and snapped or just snapped but it’s definitely snapped off. Is that fatal or can it be drilled out? I don’t know if that’s a hardened bolt or what.

Is it broken off deep in or flush? If flush, I'd tack-weld a washer or something if it's deep drill it. I'd also change that front seal while you have the drive shaft out.

It's about 1/8" to 1/16" in, not flush. I don't know how long the bolt is but the piece from the break to the head is about 1/2" long.There are about 3 threads with red locktite on the bolt.

I saw that one too... nice buy. I thought about it for a minute and then realized I have at least 5 that need attention first.
As far as drilling the bolt out I think you can do it successfully, they are not hardened or at least don't appear to be.

Drilled into it and got it with an easy out. It didn’t seem to want to budge at first but I put a little heat on the easy out to heat it from the inside so it wouldn’t get the shaft to hot and risk melting the input shaft and it broke loose.

I replaced the bolt and put red locktite in the threads and left it sit overnight. Today I put the driveshaft in to test it, and I replaced the damaged hydro line. I started it up to look it over and the driveline is completely smooth with no wobble at all. So I think we're good there... However, it will hardly move forward, no reverse, and no power steering. There is a dent and a crease in the corner of the hydro oil filter also from the driveshaft hitting it, I'm thinking there's a hole there and it's sucking air. The hydro oil looks like froth on the dipstick only from running for less than a minute. PO told me the oil was recently changed in the rear with a new filter, and even gave me an extra jug of the real cub cadet hydro oil for it. So, I'm assuming this is a suction filtered pump and it's sucking air in at the filter.

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.
