Re: 1782 glow plugs
Frank, I have the later model serial number. The easiest way to tell for me is to look at the tunnel cover. The earlier serial numbers had a steel tunnel cover, the later model has the plastic cover. -Ray 782D and 1572 have different glow plugs than the 1772 and 1782. If my memory serves this old gu...

Re: 1782 glow plugs
Matt, The 1782 already has an inline relay and wiring. I wonder if I took the Kubota part number to NAPA if they could cross reference it for me... -Ray For the D600B engines at least, the 'new' glow plugs are NGK Y103V and about $8 each from NAPA. You will have to add an additional solenoid and wir...

Re: 1782 glow plugs
So after I posted this question last year I got sidetracked and never followed up on it. In the last few days we had a foot of snow and I had a heck of a time trying to get the 1782 started. I ended up killing the battery which just added to my frustration. I finally grabbed a piece of wire and manu...

Good afternoon, My 1782 is hard starting and I've seen a few discussions about the older cub glow plug upgrade that involves NGK glowplugs and adding a relay.

Re: 1782 Broken implement lift arm
Steve,
Mine is a 54" also, it's similar to that frame with some subtle differences. The plow has a part number of 701-407 on it, with a serial number of 493163, or 183, it's a little messed up and hard to read near the end.

Ok. That's making me feel a little bit better, it looks similar to the one I have (minus being broken).

Do you have the dimensions of that arm? Also, I see it has a hole at the end instead of a pin to put the lift rod over. How does the rod attach to the arm?
