Default Thoughts on 682+1811
The more I look at the 682 the more I want to keep it. I like my 1811 but the 682 just looks so tough. The 682 I was told the motor quit running. But haven't tried to start it yet. I bought it just for the 3 point hitch and few other parts that are better than the ones on my 1811.
So here is my idea. I have one 1811 that I had bought for parts but runs fine just a little rougher then my first 1811. What if I take the hydraulic lift off the 1811 and put on 682. Also switch over the m18 to the 682.
I'd have the best of both worlds. Cast iron rear end , strong m18, hydraulic lift and a tough looking red tractor.
Okay let's here the pro's and con's.

Well, then you'd have a 682 with a Mag. I don't see any cons here.......

Except you'd only have 2 tractors instead of 3!!

I think the choice is obvious - I'd go for the red machine with a Mag and hydraulics any day!

Did I read here that the wiring was different going from the 17hp to the m18? Are their any other mod's I should watch out for?

I agree...sounds like the way to go, and you'll basically now have a 782 with a Mag in it...not to mention the 3 pt hitch!

Using the wiring from the 1811 might be a good idea. The 1811 has a magneto ignition, where the KT is point/condenser. The magneto doesn't require twelve volts off the key to generates the spark.

Just figured out I need to switch the Hydro unit, correct. Will it go from the 1811 to the 682?

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.
