Have a line on a 2284 locally. Bare model with P/S and turning brakes only. Seems to be in good shape and runs good. 60" deck. I was thinking about adding the three point from my 1641 and the front outlets as well. They may have a blower as well.
What should I look over close just to make sure it's OK?

Look under the tractor at the front mounts on the transaxle. The bolts loosen and it cracks the aluminum housing.

Re: 2284 known issues?
on any model cub with alum rear I am looking to buy I grab the seat from the side and pull it back and forth if the frame moves before the tires time to look closer and I bought one before maybe twice

Re: 2284 known issues?
That is one of the items I am unfortunately aware of. I had to do a repair on my 1641 because of stripped threads. I went and looked closer today and may be having it delivered Saturday. Figure I should test it out first.

Re: 2284 known issues?
Steve - Good to see you again. I can't remember if you have had a Super previously, but if it is salvageable you won't regret it. I smile every time someone gets over the plastic issue and saves one of these. From what I remember, you have a 450 snowblower; a Super is nice to have for those big blowers.
I hope you get the tractor. Take care, Tom
