Re: 450, 451 and 551 Snowblower Application Notes...
Last winter I was running a 451 on a 1864 (regular garden tractor 18hp power lift/steering 6” pto) after a few adjustments I had it throwing 30-50’ there is a thread on here someplace I started. Feel free to have a look, I’ll find a link if I can. Found it! http://www.cubcadetcollectors.com/forum/vi...

Re: 450, 451 and 551 Snowblower Application Notes...
Good news! Your reading to much into the pulley size, you have the 6” pulley! Mount the 451 and start blowing snow! The outside is what we are measuring when we say 4” or 6”, most of us are looking for quick/easy when we measure.

Re: 450, 451 and 551 Snowblower Application Notes...
Have you measured the pto? It should be 6” for the 48/54 decks. I’m sure a complete pto can be bought new or just a used pulley for one of the parts guys

Re: 450, 451 and 551 Snowblower Application Notes...
Do you use the 1882 for any other attachments? Mostly the mower deck? If not just swap out the PTO to 6” and don’t look back.
I swapped over my 1882 years ago and run a 54” deck when I’m out of cheep “fix and flip” cubs. I like the way it cuts and seams to have good power for blowing leaves.

Re: Steering whines
Pull the rear cover!
The back plate will need to come off and then the rear cover is held on with 9 bolts. Behind that cover is the 2 gallons of oil. I would use a can of brake cleaner to get as much of the nasty white goop off the side walls as you can!

An 1864 should have a vent on the top of the rear casting. If not it’s a great time to add one! Even so go slow so you don’t make a mess!

Re: Steering whines
I would do the full fluid swap like Tom said I would use the tractor a bit. Run the lift up/down drive in circles front/back maybe even more then the 15 minutes. I would say an hour or two. I agree with Tom and only use the wix/Napa 1410 filter. The hydros use about 2 gallons of oil each. A gear dri...

I’m not sure what model you have, but most use the rear end as a reservoir. There most likely a dipstick to check the full level.

Does your tractor have the front outlets and a “extra” hydro lever? Most I’ve seen do not. Without the front ports, you would need to get off the seat to angle the plow. A super plow would not go on a 1864 without major work.

Re: Snow blade
I’m going to say no it won’t work. Like tom said the axle is a different height. So much so that the Plow/axle would hit. It’s worth trying though and if need be, just lower the front the rears are the same.

I tried once, it wasn’t working, the bolts for the extension hit the qa mechanism on the frame. I gave up and found the right sub-frame.

Sad to say, but if the belt doesn’t fix it, it’s a parts tractor. The rears in those are not servcable. I have one here (1610) with similar issues. I’ll save the seat, hood ornament, the Briggs is good, so it will hit craigslist for 50-100$ and the deck spindles. The rest will be crushed to make 5 m...

Have you done the up-grade to remove the glow plugs from the key switch? You would need to add a solenoid.
New glow plugs?

Re: 2082 pto clutch bearings
I’ve never done it, but I’m told the bearings can be changed out by opening up the sheet metal cover and popping out the old and installing new. Punch the tin back around the new bearing. MTD wants you to replace the entire pto pulley at least. Sorry I don’t have a part number.
