Default Need to confirm a bolt head size
I'm working on my 782's front grill and I need to remove the 4 12 point bolts that hold it to each side of the front frame at the bottom. I think I need a 9/32" 12 point. Can anyone confirm so that I can order the correct socket?

thanks

I just checked mine and the grill housing (tag 1 in the illustration) is held on by four six-point 5/16" bolts and a 1/2" deep socket is needed to take them off.

from the looks of it, I think it's a 12 point bolt.
They all appear to be original, so maybe IH changed things up at some point.

According to the Parts Manuals, both the on line version as well as the paper version, Plus both IH & CCC productions....they used 710-0376 bolt. It is a standard Hex Head Bolt, 5/16-18 x 1", grade 5.

I find NOTHING with any reference to a 12 point bolt head.

Good info. It seemed like an odd thing for IH to do and after many years of wrenching on old IH stuff, it's the first time I've ever encountered a 12 point bolt on one. I bought a cheap "spline socket" set at Auto Zone and the bolts came right out. Thanks

Yes, just a regular 12 point socket normally used on hex heads.

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.
