Re: New 782

thanks for replies. I guess no good deed goes unpunished, just trying to get it in working order and looking good for my pops. I have had governor problems before on the K series engines and fixed them, but I don't think its worth the time and effort to break apart a series I. Its a shame because I ...

Re: New 782

Have definitely hit a brick wall on the governor. Engine runs great. It's just the governor sticks. I've tried every possible adjustment, at a total loss. Would appreciate any info, thanks

Just hauled in a 79 IH 782. I found this one for my dad a month or so ago and went with him one Sunday morning to pick it up around falls church, VA. It's a one owner, series I. Came with 50" deck and snow plow. All hubcaps. I got all my project tractors up and running so I went over and picked this...

Re: Electric motor lift

Thanks for the replies. It does have the clutch. Gear isn't stripped too bad but enough to not work. I tore apart a parts lift I had with a good gear.

Re: Tiller Help

The part number you need for the PTO belt is 549250 R1 for that series of early wide frame tractor. You have a model 1 tiller if it has the extensions, but model of tiller does not matter, the belt is the same. There is plenty of cross references for that part number belt, but I have found that AX-1...

Got the blade hooked up to the 102, so now I'm covered between it and the 982, now we won't get any snow. The 102 or the blade won't win any beauty shows but it's one of my more reliable workhorses that just won't quit. Got the snow removal crew sitting closest to the garage door

Re: #2b tiller on a CCC 582

You would have to modify the tiller mounting bracket as the bolt pattern won't line up on the aluminum rear. I've never seen it done, you also will need the rockshaft and lift bar for the sleeve hitch in order to raise and lower the tiller, and the 582 being hand lift, you'll want spring assist to l...
