I have a red 782 that I can't figure out the brake return spring on it. The spring was missing when I got the tractor. I bought the spring from a dealer and posted a message as where it hooks on the frame. I can't seem to find that spot out. I found a few holes in the frame and a bracket on the rear-end that look like it would hook to, but when the pedal is pressed it will not return. This is the second tractor I have owned (1650 and 782) and both have had this same issue. No spring and when I got the spring from dealer, no clear place to hook both ends that would make the pedal return. Is this a common problem? It almost seems like when the pedal is fully pressed that the linkage binds up where it connects to the actual brake lever connecting to the rear-end, and not fully returning the brakes although the brakes dont drag. Any ideas or help would be great. Thanks

I can't remember but i think the spring hooks in different places depending on whether you have external brakes or internal brakes.

my 129 had no return spring and i had a heck of a time figuring out where it went. i looked through the parts manual and got an idea of where it mounted and had an new/old drum brake spring and bent it to fit.
here is a pic of an external WF(129) return spring and a pic of an internal NF(100) return spring. hope it helps. external.JPGinternal.JPG

My late 1450 with the internal brake rear had a 4-5" long spring that went from the brake pedal rockshaft to to the back edge of the bottom flange of the frame on the left side. This would be the same as a 782 with an internal brake rear.
The external brake rear (CCC aluminum rear, that is) has a different return spring setup from either the 129 or 100 redwaycc posted. It attaches to a tab that comes from the crossbrace that the steering column is bolted to. |

Great picture of where your spring hooks. I tried first the holes on the frame and then the same bracket yours is using but there is not enough power in the spring to make the pedal return. The spring is definitly stretched enough, but I think something is binding up not allowing a free return of the pedal. I have to use the top side of my foot to return it all the way. Any more ideas?

We have the same issue regarding the brake spring return spring and where is should be attached to the frame. We saw your post with accompaning pictures but the pictures no longer shows and they are key to the post. Could we have the pictures reposted?
Thanks |

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.
