One thing to note: When I added the 7 qts. of Hy-Tran to the transaxle, the process went very smoothly because I filled it with the relief valves removed. This allowed the unit to vent, and the fluid went it quickly and without that annoying burping, which is usually messy and wasteful. I have a small plastic funnel that fits in the filler tube snugly, so that helped too. Something to remember when you are servicing these. I have done 4 tractors previously, and this would have saved frustration and time.

Good tip. I dread filling the newer rear ends through the dipstick tube.

Ugly front wheels sanded, primed and then painted using Rustoleum Almond. Came out great. Then I repacked the wheel bearings. Surprisingly they were not worn out, but they were dry.

That almond is a good find. I need to do the same for the fronts on the 984 and 782.

I agree. It's dirt cheap as compared to the Cub Cadet branded paints, and easier to locate. Since my machines are always garaged and kept cleaned, not sure of the durability, but Rustoleum has typically been good.

Your 682 turned out nice.

In case you didn't know, Ace Hardware carries their Ace Rust Stop brand in Almond Gloss. It usually comes in the bigger 15oz cans for the same price as Rustoleum's 12oz. I've used it with great success.

Good luck on finding a mule drive and deck!

Cool

Thank you. It shouldn't be too hard to find a setup.

That is the same color I used, matches just about all the cub implements. Nice work.

I tried to get Farm & Fleet to mix some to that color last night and it didn't go so well. Figured I could paint the 60" 374 deck and front rims on both all at once with the spray gun.

Menards carries it, but was out, however they promised me a quart on Saturday

Both of them had 1/2 pints, but way to spendy

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.
