Joe,

Any reason not mounting the block heater on the side of cylinder block?

Thanks, Bob G.

Steve, How is your project going? I have a 782D which did not have reverse last fall. Just got around to working on it again. Could not find out on the Internet which valve was for forward and which one was for reverse. So happens last summer the R/S check valve was leaking oil from the weep hole on...

Adrian, If you ever get angry with your 982, you could send it my way... :lol: Mike, When I bought my 782D a few years ago, I went through from front to rear. It cost me about $200 in parts to rebuild the steering gear box, driveshaft, hoses, etc. The PTO not staying engaged (bad relay/seat switch) ...

Geezer, You are a smart man. I wished that I had installed PEX tubing into my 30x30 floor when it was poured. The next thing you should keep your eyes out for is hot water solar collectors and setup a drain back system. I would suggest to any one to seriously consider install the PEX into floor even...

Paul,

What a great find. Take good care of them.

Any one who watchs 'American Picker' on TV will wish they picked the old signage years ago when there was not much of a market. I am amazed what the old rusty gasoline/oil sign fetch for collectors.

rwonder, Can anyone tell me if the glow plugs for the modification are the same on the 15 hp engine . I have a 1572. Probably. I measured a voltage drop of 7.8 volts at the starter solenoid while trying to crank. I had 30A for the glow plugs plus 10 Amps for the starter solenoid pull-in winding goin...

FYI, For the diesel cubs, I posted two of Todd Markle's modifications which I had archived from poor old IH Registry website to this website 'How To' section. The following is the links...

Cub Cadet Diesel Starter Upgrade [/b] By Todd Markle A very worthwhile upgrade for the diesel powered Cub Cadets is to add the newer permanent magnet gear reduction starter. This starter has nearly twice the power of the original one the tractors came with. Here are a couple part numbers to look fo...

Diesel Glow Plug Upgrade By Todd Markle Here is another upgrade to make the diesel Cub Cadets start better in the cold weather. I have gathered all this information from reading several discussions on both the IH Registry forum and the IH Cub Cadet Forum. This consists of changing over to the newer...

Here is a snap shot of my Cub Cadet archive folder. Mostly 782D related. I tried to attached some of the 'How-To' instructions from the old site which I save in MHT web archive format but this website would not allow .DOC, .MHT, and .PDF attachments. Instead I have attached two screen shots of my ar...

I just did a little cross referencing... For the 5/8" x 4 1/2" pulley # 78055-C1 uses a 78056-C1 belt which is 5/8" x 36 1/4". I found two pulleys at McMaster-Carr that should work. #6204K234 - 4.25" Diameter with 3/4" finish bore and 3/16 keyway #6204K242 - 4.45" Diameter with 3/4" finish bore and ...

Thanks Matt,

I checked the diameter of the PTO pulley on the 782D and it was 5". Do you know the length of the 5/8 belt or have a belt#?

Thanks again.

This is my first post since IH Registry. I am glad to see this site up again. It has been one of my top ten sites which I follow. I bought a QA-42 to use on my 782D GT. The blower came off of a 1250??? WF GT with a 1/2" PTO pulley. I am going to need to swap the 1/2" pulley on the gear box with a 5/...
