I don't think they planned for that. Lol. But they certainly do now....throw 'em away and buy a new one every couple years. We sold our '04 and '09 MTD Cub tractors, and three of our neighbors have already sold or traded in their Cubs after just a couple years of use.

@@MichaelTJD60 A lot of Deere and Cub Cadet around here too (way up north in the mountains) But god damn do I miss the Gravely 816T I had growing up, I've never found another tractor that I like more.
Hey Mike,was looking forward to PA plow day too!! Had all of my tractors ready to go. I have a couple of small plowing jobs to do,better than nothing. Hope to see you and the 882 next year, till then stay safe!!
That's a very nice original example of one of these rare tractors! I must admit I like the yellow and white paint scheme. What is nice about the Deeres with the radiator in the back is there's a radiator grass screen on top of the full belly screen. Makes it easy to clean but having the radiator in the front is nicer for cooling purposes. Runs pretty good!
I think the radiator grass screen is commonly overlooked on those tractors, a lot of people forget to remove them and clean them. But it definitely helps since that radiator is pretty restricted.
The 882 has a fine radiator screen that slides down the front. Open the hood and it slides right out the top. These things will definitely run hot if the screen is plugged with cottonwood, etc.
Glad too see you got a diesel and a clean one at that. I have a 1772 and love it. Only problem I've had was the relief valves and had dirty injectors. And the alternator locked up but luckily their easy to rebuild with new bearings. Their a great and reliable machine and as you said will definitely make it too 5k hours if well maintained
Maybe if I'm lucky it will see 5000 hours. A Super diesel would be cool to have...guy down the road from me was selling a 1572 turbo but it was way out of my price range and is long gone now.
@@MichaelTJD60 yeah I use to have a 1572. You probably know it. Mike from the tractor shop owns it now. I believe it's his plow day tractor. I'm actually the one who built it and I'm building my 1772 like it. My 1772 actually is going to get powder coated red on Wednesday
Haven't seen a D600 in a while! Its tiny compared to our newest engine, the S7509 7.5L Inline 6! The modern day version is the Z602 2 cylinder or the D722 3 cylinder. We used that engine in the G5200 garden tractor long time ago. I can help you with workshop manual if you ever tear into it. Our engines usually run pretty cool, some of our older ones didn't even have waterpumps. They just cooled with a thermosiphon. Nice find!
Nice video Mike! I agree that the yellow and white cubs do look better with the two tone. It is a good runner for sure.I never really realized how much room they have under the hood.It will look good at shows with the others.I hope we have a couple this year.
@@MichaelTJD60 Yeah.That would be sweet.I might try to bring both.It figures the time I decide to finally repaint the 318 something happens.I guess we will just wait and see.

@@MichaelTJD60 Yeah that's true.We actually just got the 318 back together yesterday.I need to make the video of it finished.Just need to find time to do it.
@@jackolson6479 Same as any diesel engine...check for blowby, leaks, excessive noise or smoke, make sure it doesn't run hot, and check for creep in the hydro system and wear on all the linkages. The 60" decks don't cut great and like most larger decks, don't handle slopes very well, but they are pretty tough. Check the gearbox for slop.
MichaelTJD60 I’m definitely putting a stack on my 430 if I get one, it will look sweet and I’m going to put some ag tires on the back and v 61 tires on the front. I know I will snow plow and mow with it but it will look sweet
It's partly due to the old and weak battery, and the fact that the engine has high compression. The starter will be upgraded eventually. I think I am going to turn the muffler vertical, it will look really cool.
So nice to see another one of these. I bought a used one in 2001 and am still cutting my 2 acres with it today. I love it and it's never once given me any mechanical issues. I have a 50" deck with it and the tractor is a 1512, but looks identical to yours. You seem to be quite knowledgeable about these. Any idea how old mine might be?
The 782D/882/1512 are all the same tractor, just rebadged according to whether they were sold at a Cub Cadet lawn equipment dealership or an IH ag dealership. The 1512 "replaced" the 782D/882 and was made from 1985-89.
About 2month ago I finally bought my 430 John Deere diesel dream tractor got it for a steel bc it had a big leak why the guy sold it and didnt know and it was a breather hole for the hydrostatic was plugged and blew oil out a lose bolt great buy you got
@@MichaelTJD60 haha ya it's rare bc like you said John Deere parts ain't cheep and he was at 2k wanted it gone I said 1k and drove about 3hrs one way to get then idk where your from put in pa thes tractors and yours are so expensive I looked up my tractor when. It came out it was 9k for it and now its crazy
@@dakotak8437 Not sure where in PA you're buying from lol PA is where all the deals are. My 782 and 882 came from PA while my 210 and 318 came from MD.
@@MichaelTJD60 between Erie and Pittsburgh everyone with in hrs of me want everything for more then gold every John Deere I found for 430 diesel wanted 3k and up and that's even in souper shit shape or not runing
Technically that engine is still in there backwards, just like the engines on any other Cub Cadet. Due to the direction of rotation of the hydro pump. The fan actually runs off the flywheel side of the engine, and the driveshaft, alternator, and I think the water pump as well run off the true front of the engine. Thats also why the thermostat housing is at the “back” of the engine as well.
Good point. Those hydro pumps were made to turn either CCW or CW depending on application, so I guess it's all relative. Either way, I like having the radiator up front rather than in the rear.
Congrats on the purchase, looks good. I wish Deere offered a diesel in the X 5.. so that you could get a diesel without having to spending 14 or so grand on a x7 series
There were the X495 and X595 diesel about 15 years ago. Same thing as an early X740/X748. They can be bought in used condition for about as much as a current X580/X590. They had the 355D/GX355 before that, but those weren't a big seller. I wish the X590's had a v-twin diesel like the 355's had instead of the EFI Kawasaki.
22:50 Just so nobody gets confused, the internals of the rear end are still the same, just the center section of the case is aluminum vs cast iron. The main disadvantage is the loss of that extra weight right at the rear tires. The 3-point hitch is made up of a pretty heavy duty box that bolts directly to the frame. I left the aluminum rear end in mine and have used it very heavily to box blade and bust up tree stumps. What you have to watch for, is that the bolts attaching the rear end to the tractor don't back out and do damage to the aluminum housing. Other than that, they are plenty rugged.
Thanks for the clarification, I should have been clearer in the video. The aluminum housing takes so much weight away from the rear end which is not good with the heavy engine up front. But the fine-spline axles used in the aluminum rears are superior to the axles used the cast iron rears. Someday down the road if I don't end up doing a cast iron rear swap in this tractor, I will most likely add a pair of Xtreme Motorworks axle braces to keep the axle housings from cracking or losing their bolts.
MichaelTJD60 well it looks like that’s falling through. When you specifically ask someone if a mower deck has any holes or patches and they say no it’s in nice shape, and then a couple hours before you’re supposed to get it they send you a pic of a giant rust hole and expect you to pay the same price...
@@stuffyoucando2 I hate shady sellers like that. Seems like the majority of the time, the seller's definition of "in good shape" is different than the buyer's. They'll do anything to make a buck.
Neat tractor..didnt know they had diesels...not shocked that there is...just didnt know...we had a red 782 on the farm for a long time...me i prefer the oder cubs fron around late 70s and cub lo boys
Nice to see you back! I'd definitely try to look for a Cub equivalent to go alongside your 332's. They lack power steering and dual brakes unless you go with a 1572/1772, but are still a nice tractor to own, and cheaper to fix than a 332.
Yeah I’ve wanted a 782D for ages. I always see them at shows and drool over them one of these days I’ll get one. My main 332 funnily enough hasn’t had to have any real work done to it in the last 2 years just maintenance like oil changes. It is dues for a full service this summer though. Probably could use a front axle rebuild. But hey it’s got well over 3,000 hours so no big deal. My other one is about 70% reassembled it’s a full nut and bolt rebuild including the engine. It’ll be getting a turbo and probably a custom paint color of some sort. I picked up a 314 a year ago for $200 which has been literally perfect it’s needed nothing but gas and a quick carb adjustment. It’s already paid for itself doing work for the neighbors. I might sell it in a year or two and buy something else. Probably either a 782D or a 430.
Once you go diesel, you won’t go back lol…. At least for me anyways. A few years ago I got an 1986 (I think) Ariens GT18 off of my grandpa and have been using it for the past few years. It’s got the 18hp Ruggerini 2 cylinder diesel and I just found out that they only ever made 170 tractors with that motor. Originally I was just gonna run it into the ground but after hearing how rare it is I think I’m gonna put some love into it this winter and fix some of its issues.
@@MichaelTJD60 Yeah I will for sure. The motor runs great considering how many hours it’s got. And as far as looks go, it’s pretty distinguishable over the gas counterpart, simply because it’s got a huge muffler that sticks out on the one side, similar to the 882
I prefer the old style decals on the earlier models like yours as well. I love my 782D it's a fun tractor. I just purchased another diesel Cub as well. I always wanted a 2 tone yellow and white as well. May have to find a yellow 982.
What model diesel did you get? I actually passed up a deal on a white/yellow 982 a few months ago...it didn't come with attachments besides a deck, and I think the 882 was a better deal anyway.
i wanted to be able to use standard car battery's [ much cheaper]. i use it as my back up mower now as i bought a zero turn with a cat diesel motor. both mowers are very cheap to run on diesel with little maintenance
All ya need is Ag’s all the way around, some steel weights , a 3 point and you will be good to go ! Awesome tractor buddy it ain’t green but awesome none the less..😂😂😂 does it have dual spool hydraulics ?
That's the plan! I want to get Super Lugs and V61's for it, just like the 782. And yes it does have dual spools. It's pretty much the equivalent of a JD 330 but with the dual spools.
I did that in the video. The glow plug indicator is useless as it takes most of the current away from the glow plugs and results in them taking more time to heat up. I sold this tractor but I had plans to add a glow plug relay to give them instant heat. Would have made cold starts much easier.
Deere belts tend to last the longest. I've had nothing but trouble with the Kevlar belt that's currently on it...it doesn't fit the pulleys (which are grooved differently than other brands of mowers), and just randomly comes off while mowing. The Deere belts are cut at a specific angle to fit their pulleys tightly, and are usually pretty durable as long as the tension is set properly.

I had a 782D. Definitely do the high torque starter and redo the the complete wiring on the machine. Not a cub fan and it didn’t take me long to realize how inferior the cubs are to the Deere’s. So I turned that red 782 into a bunch of green in my pocket haha
I didn't want to spend too much green so that's why I got this 882 instead of a 332 or 430. I think I can live without the power steering and dual brakes for now. I may end up with a 332 or 430 someday, but for now this will do just fine.
I upgraded to a Deka 8AMU1R glass-mat battery. High output but the same size as the stock battery. Made a huge difference, and fit under the hood with no modifications.
Here's a quick to do list for that bad boy: 1 - Glow Plug Upgrade 2 - Starter Upgrade 3 - Make sure it has the extra ground wire installed (There's a TSB on it) 4 - Glow wire bypass/starter relay mod I did these mods over a period of a few years and I wish I'd done them all at once. I don't have anything beefier than a run of the mill battery and my 882 cold starts up right away with just around 7-10 seconds of glow plug. I'm interested in the QA42 blower, let me know if you'd be willing to work with me to ship via Fastenal.
Miata battery and extra ground wire already done, next thing will be the glow plug relay mod. Already had NGK Y103V glow plugs installed before I bought it, so that's taken care of. The brand new starter works really well so I'm probably just going to run it for a couple years. Where are you located? Last I heard Fastenal isn't doing shipping right now with all the Covid BS going on.
@@MichaelTJD60 Yeah, I think you're right. Really don't need a blower down south since it snows maybe 5 days a year lol. Never see them for sale here and just wanted one to put on the 147 or maybe 882 for the cool factor.
I like them both equally. It's hard to choose a favorite, but for sentimental reasons I'd have to say the 318. It's nice having dual brakes and power steering on the 318, but that doesn't make the 882 a bad tractor for not having them.
I think it could be done. The mounting cradle and driveshaft are much different than a regular 782, plus you'd have to find a battery tray to put under the hood and a rear-mounted fuel tank since they are mounted opposite of a 782. The parts are not exactly easy to find since there aren't many of these diesels being parted out. You could probably use a smaller 2-cylinder diesel to get around all of that, however.
Could anyone tell me where the oil dipstick is on one of these? I just bought one non running and I can’t find the dipstick! I’m wondering if it missing or if I’m just stupid. Thanks
It should be on the left side of the engine, down below the injection pump. It's not in a very accessible spot without having to remove the left side panel, I wish they had made it a little more accessible. The dipstick cap is a thin wire loop instead of an actual oil cap, so that doesn't make it easy to spot either.
@@gagesoutdoors7793 Yikes! Good thing it wasn't running lol. Glad you were able to get one - the Kubota diesels are pretty forgiving so hopefully it won't take much to get it running.
The tractor that got me hooked on these was a 1512 with a turbo that I got to test drive at a show (it's here on UA-cam somewhere), but for what I need, the turbo kit just seems unnecessary on something this small. I'm not trying to win races with it, and I don't want to hack up such a nice original tractor (aside from the possible cast iron rear swap in the future).
@@MichaelTJD60, I guess that's true. The turbo noises are pretty lit when the turbo spools up. I drive a 95 7.3 of which I straight pipped, on the road, it sounds like a train when I tromp on the gas. I'm a Diesel Neard. In the video of you using the cub, it smokes really bad on startup. It doesn't get below 30-35 in texas so I start my truck without glowplugs 95% of the time, I wired in a switch to turn off the GP relay so I don't kill them. Great video, I live these old tractors especially the old diesels, & cast Kohlers.
15 horsepower goes a long way in a diesel. Kubotas are way easier to work on than some Deeres. I found that ford diesels (lgt14 and 16D) are very easy to maintain and work on and will do everything a Deere or kubota will do.
All the little Japanese-built 3-cylinder diesels are pretty tough in terms of reliability and torque output. I would like to get my hands on a Ford with the Shibaura diesel one of these days...watched one sell for $825 at a local auction about 8 years ago.
@@MichaelTJD60 I got mine for 1,000. And I consider that a steal in great condition. 800 dollar range is very reasonable. You can make a case/ingersoll 3 point hitch work on them fairly easily. If you know an experienced welder he can make spacers and the rear end housing has threaded holes. It's pretty simple. I hope you run across one sometime. They are great tractors (especially for plowing!) Merry Christmas
Not interested in 430's, they are big and bulky and everyone else already has one. My next diesel garden tractor will either be a 1572/1772 or an X series Deere.
@@MichaelTJD60 battery has done well then. I bet if you put one in it like is supposed have you could get rid of those cable extensions and if that is a new starter it would roll it over way better
@@kevinsanders5989 Check your local craigslist or Facebook Marketplace. Front attachments for the older Cub Cadets are pretty easy to find and a lot of them are interchangeable.
I used to post "DIY" fixing videos years ago before people started commenting how I was always doing it wrong and how I should have been doing it their way instead. That's all UA-cam has become anymore and I just got sick of it. If I made those type of videos nowadays they probably wouldn't be very interesting because I work slowly and sometimes I just don't have patience, let alone time...too busy to even work on my own equipment anymore.

sweet i have a 782d i need a 3 point to use it for more jobs
The starter sounds like it’s dragging. Man I love this tractor! You could turn the muffler vertical!
It's partly due to the old and weak battery, and the fact that the engine has high compression. The starter will be upgraded eventually. I think I am going to turn the muffler vertical, it will look really cool.
So nice to see another one of these. I bought a used one in 2001 and am still cutting my 2 acres with it today. I love it and it's never once given me any mechanical issues. I have a 50" deck with it and the tractor is a 1512, but looks identical to yours. You seem to be quite knowledgeable about these. Any idea how old mine might be?
The 782D/882/1512 are all the same tractor, just rebadged according to whether they were sold at a Cub Cadet lawn equipment dealership or an IH ag dealership. The 1512 "replaced" the 782D/882 and was made from 1985-89.
About 2month ago I finally bought my 430 John Deere diesel dream tractor got it for a steel bc it had a big leak why the guy sold it and didnt know and it was a breather hole for the hydrostatic was plugged and blew oil out a lose bolt great buy you got
Gotta love easy fixes like that. Congrats on your 430.
@@MichaelTJD60 haha ya it's rare bc like you said John Deere parts ain't cheep and he was at 2k wanted it gone I said 1k and drove about 3hrs one way to get then idk where your from put in pa thes tractors and yours are so expensive I looked up my tractor when. It came out it was 9k for it and now its crazy
@@dakotak8437 Not sure where in PA you're buying from lol PA is where all the deals are. My 782 and 882 came from PA while my 210 and 318 came from MD.
@@MichaelTJD60 between Erie and Pittsburgh everyone with in hrs of me want everything for more then gold every John Deere I found for 430 diesel wanted 3k and up and that's even in souper shit shape or not runing
Technically that engine is still in there backwards, just like the engines on any other Cub Cadet. Due to the direction of rotation of the hydro pump. The fan actually runs off the flywheel side of the engine, and the driveshaft, alternator, and I think the water pump as well run off the true front of the engine. Thats also why the thermostat housing is at the “back” of the engine as well.
Good point. Those hydro pumps were made to turn either CCW or CW depending on application, so I guess it's all relative. Either way, I like having the radiator up front rather than in the rear.
Nice 882 I have one I was watching that tractor on craigslist, and i wondered were it went. Have fun
Thanks AJ. I'm surprised how long it was on Craigslist before I bought it.
@@MichaelTJD60 yeah it was on there a while
Definitely twist the muffler up! Nice tractor!
Thanks!
Keep it the factory way for best protection incase you ever get caught in a rainstorm.
I’m a cub cadet fanatic and I’ve never see a diesel! Wow
Yeah they only made 6 models that were diesel powered and they aren't too easy to find.
OMG that's cool . IHC was my favorite company.
Steven Maines IHC sold out to MTD.
@@interman7715 Don't feed the trolls. He's always got something to say about MTD.
Congrats on the purchase, looks good. I wish Deere offered a diesel in the X 5.. so that you could get a diesel without having to spending 14 or so grand on a x7 series
There were the X495 and X595 diesel about 15 years ago. Same thing as an early X740/X748. They can be bought in used condition for about as much as a current X580/X590. They had the 355D/GX355 before that, but those weren't a big seller. I wish the X590's had a v-twin diesel like the 355's had instead of the EFI Kawasaki.
22:50 Just so nobody gets confused, the internals of the rear end are still the same, just the center section of the case is aluminum vs cast iron. The main disadvantage is the loss of that extra weight right at the rear tires. The 3-point hitch is made up of a pretty heavy duty box that bolts directly to the frame. I left the aluminum rear end in mine and have used it very heavily to box blade and bust up tree stumps.
What you have to watch for, is that the bolts attaching the rear end to the tractor don't back out and do damage to the aluminum housing. Other than that, they are plenty rugged.
Thanks for the clarification, I should have been clearer in the video. The aluminum housing takes so much weight away from the rear end which is not good with the heavy engine up front. But the fine-spline axles used in the aluminum rears are superior to the axles used the cast iron rears. Someday down the road if I don't end up doing a cast iron rear swap in this tractor, I will most likely add a pair of Xtreme Motorworks axle braces to keep the axle housings from cracking or losing their bolts.
Algorithm food. It's a keeper, thanks Cub looks sharp!
Looks nice, seems to run really well too. A diesel will likely be next on the list for me too.
Thanks! It's a good runner. I bet you could find a really nice 332 or similar.
@@MichaelTJD60 maybe some day. Looks like I might be picking up a second 318 here soon, so that'll be all I have room for at the moment.
@@stuffyoucando2 awesome. Can't wait to see it.
MichaelTJD60 well it looks like that’s falling through. When you specifically ask someone if a mower deck has any holes or patches and they say no it’s in nice shape, and then a couple hours before you’re supposed to get it they send you a pic of a giant rust hole and expect you to pay the same price...
@@stuffyoucando2 I hate shady sellers like that. Seems like the majority of the time, the seller's definition of "in good shape" is different than the buyer's. They'll do anything to make a buck.
Neat tractor..didnt know they had diesels...not shocked that there is...just didnt know...we had a red 782 on the farm for a long time...me i prefer the oder cubs fron around late 70s and cub lo boys
Yeah the diesels were not very common but are popular among collectors now. I ended up selling this one but I do plan to own another one someday.
I need to get a 782D or 882 to go with my two 332’s. Sweet tractor!
Nice to see you back! I'd definitely try to look for a Cub equivalent to go alongside your 332's. They lack power steering and dual brakes unless you go with a 1572/1772, but are still a nice tractor to own, and cheaper to fix than a 332.
Yeah I’ve wanted a 782D for ages. I always see them at shows and drool over them one of these days I’ll get one. My main 332 funnily enough hasn’t had to have any real work done to it in the last 2 years just maintenance like oil changes. It is dues for a full service this summer though. Probably could use a front axle rebuild. But hey it’s got well over 3,000 hours so no big deal. My other one is about 70% reassembled it’s a full nut and bolt rebuild including the engine. It’ll be getting a turbo and probably a custom paint color of some sort. I picked up a 314 a year ago for $200 which has been literally perfect it’s needed nothing but gas and a quick carb adjustment. It’s already paid for itself doing work for the neighbors. I might sell it in a year or two and buy something else. Probably either a 782D or a 430.
@@Johndeerefan198 Awesome, sounds like you've had some good luck. I'm eager to see the restored 332.
Once you go diesel, you won’t go back lol…. At least for me anyways. A few years ago I got an 1986 (I think) Ariens GT18 off of my grandpa and have been using it for the past few years. It’s got the 18hp Ruggerini 2 cylinder diesel and I just found out that they only ever made 170 tractors with that motor. Originally I was just gonna run it into the ground but after hearing how rare it is I think I’m gonna put some love into it this winter and fix some of its issues.
Definitely hang onto that thing. You just don't see them around. I've seen pictures of the diesel version but have never seen one in person.
@@MichaelTJD60 Yeah I will for sure. The motor runs great considering how many hours it’s got. And as far as looks go, it’s pretty distinguishable over the gas counterpart, simply because it’s got a huge muffler that sticks out on the one side, similar to the 882
Honestly, the yellow and white looks better on Cub Cadet than IH red
Agreed.
I prefer the old style decals on the earlier models like yours as well. I love my 782D it's a fun tractor. I just purchased another diesel Cub as well. I always wanted a 2 tone yellow and white as well. May have to find a yellow 982.
What model diesel did you get? I actually passed up a deal on a white/yellow 982 a few months ago...it didn't come with attachments besides a deck, and I think the 882 was a better deal anyway.
@@MichaelTJD60 You can't go wrong with a diesel. I found a 1772. I'll be uploading a video on it tonight.
@@steiger256 Awesome. Can't wait to see it.
id love to put an engine like that in my Allis Chalmers 410
i wanted to be able to use standard car battery's [ much cheaper]. i use it as my back up mower now as i bought a zero turn with a cat diesel motor. both mowers are very cheap to run on diesel with little maintenance
All ya need is Ag’s all the way around, some steel weights , a 3 point and you will be good to go ! Awesome tractor buddy it ain’t green but awesome none the less..😂😂😂 does it have dual spool hydraulics ?
That's the plan! I want to get Super Lugs and V61's for it, just like the 782. And yes it does have dual spools. It's pretty much the equivalent of a JD 330 but with the dual spools.
The jealousy is so real! That thing is an absolute beast!
You gotta get that 330 so we can compare the two! I hope to bring this one to the Nittany fall show this year.
That is the same engine that is in my uncle's Steiner 8850
550hrs is a drop in the bucket for an old diesel. 550hrs is half a life for a new gasser v-twin.
It's used about 1/10th of its service life. Even if it did have 1160 hours like the meter says, you'd never know.
Great video! Do you ever see a old 100 cub? I’m in Italia. I would love to find one.
Thanks for the comment! A couple friends of mine have owned 100's, they are nice little tractors.
turn the key to the left until the glow plug indicator on the dash glows red then start it , mine starts easily even in the winter
I did that in the video. The glow plug indicator is useless as it takes most of the current away from the glow plugs and results in them taking more time to heat up. I sold this tractor but I had plans to add a glow plug relay to give them instant heat. Would have made cold starts much easier.
I wanna get a 332 nice video man
Thanks! 332's are out there, definitely easier to find than a Cub diesel.
MichaelTJD60 not in my area lol
@@johndeeregarage5339 They're definitely easier to find than a 782D/882.
MichaelTJD60 yeah I’m still looking around haven’t had any luck though
I love the vid but just wanna point out on your 212 about that belt, it's just a Kevlar belt and they just last longer
Deere belts tend to last the longest. I've had nothing but trouble with the Kevlar belt that's currently on it...it doesn't fit the pulleys (which are grooved differently than other brands of mowers), and just randomly comes off while mowing. The Deere belts are cut at a specific angle to fit their pulleys tightly, and are usually pretty durable as long as the tension is set properly.
I have a 2016 Cub Cadet XT3 GSX. I like yours better !
Been through my share of newer Cub Cadets. Needless to say, I won't own another one. lol

What do you think of aftermarket leds for headlight replacement on an lx176?
Not a bad investment at all. I don't think the stock headlights are too bad, though...at least compared to the crap headlights on my 318.
I had a 782D. Definitely do the high torque starter and redo the the complete wiring on the machine. Not a cub fan and it didn’t take me long to realize how inferior the cubs are to the Deere’s. So I turned that red 782 into a bunch of green in my pocket haha
I didn't want to spend too much green so that's why I got this 882 instead of a 332 or 430. I think I can live without the power steering and dual brakes for now. I may end up with a 332 or 430 someday, but for now this will do just fine.
also the original size battery is to small. I modified the battery tray so i can fit a bigger car battery in, that made a big difference
I upgraded to a Deka 8AMU1R glass-mat battery. High output but the same size as the stock battery. Made a huge difference, and fit under the hood with no modifications.
Here's a quick to do list for that bad boy:
1 - Glow Plug Upgrade
2 - Starter Upgrade
3 - Make sure it has the extra ground wire installed (There's a TSB on it)
4 - Glow wire bypass/starter relay mod
I did these mods over a period of a few years and I wish I'd done them all at once. I don't have anything beefier than a run of the mill battery and my 882 cold starts up right away with just around 7-10 seconds of glow plug.
I'm interested in the QA42 blower, let me know if you'd be willing to work with me to ship via Fastenal.
Miata battery and extra ground wire already done, next thing will be the glow plug relay mod. Already had NGK Y103V glow plugs installed before I bought it, so that's taken care of. The brand new starter works really well so I'm probably just going to run it for a couple years. Where are you located? Last I heard Fastenal isn't doing shipping right now with all the Covid BS going on.
@@MichaelTJD60 Yeah, I think you're right. Really don't need a blower down south since it snows maybe 5 days a year lol. Never see them for sale here and just wanted one to put on the 147 or maybe 882 for the cool factor.
Hows it do compaired to the 318 or have you really not done much with it
I like them both equally. It's hard to choose a favorite, but for sentimental reasons I'd have to say the 318. It's nice having dual brakes and power steering on the 318, but that doesn't make the 882 a bad tractor for not having them.
Would a diesel engine like the one in your cub Cadet fit in my international Cub Cadet 782?
I think it could be done. The mounting cradle and driveshaft are much different than a regular 782, plus you'd have to find a battery tray to put under the hood and a rear-mounted fuel tank since they are mounted opposite of a 782. The parts are not exactly easy to find since there aren't many of these diesels being parted out. You could probably use a smaller 2-cylinder diesel to get around all of that, however.
Could anyone tell me where the oil dipstick is on one of these? I just bought one non running and I can’t find the dipstick! I’m wondering if it missing or if I’m just stupid. Thanks
It should be on the left side of the engine, down below the injection pump. It's not in a very accessible spot without having to remove the left side panel, I wish they had made it a little more accessible. The dipstick cap is a thin wire loop instead of an actual oil cap, so that doesn't make it easy to spot either.
@@MichaelTJD60 turns out the dipstick was missing! I got one ordered off the internet
Thanks
@@gagesoutdoors7793 Yikes! Good thing it wasn't running lol. Glad you were able to get one - the Kubota diesels are pretty forgiving so hopefully it won't take much to get it running.
You have any deere 420s 3 points and plow and disk.
I'm looking for a 3-point myself. I have a Brinly sleeve hitch plow I'm looking to sell, but you'd need an A-frame adapter to make it fit a 3-point.
Put a turbo on it, it’ll be an absolute Monster.
The tractor that got me hooked on these was a 1512 with a turbo that I got to test drive at a show (it's here on UA-cam somewhere), but for what I need, the turbo kit just seems unnecessary on something this small. I'm not trying to win races with it, and I don't want to hack up such a nice original tractor (aside from the possible cast iron rear swap in the future).
@@MichaelTJD60, I guess that's true. The turbo noises are pretty lit when the turbo spools up. I drive a 95 7.3 of which I straight pipped, on the road, it sounds like a train when I tromp on the gas. I'm a Diesel Neard. In the video of you using the cub, it smokes really bad on startup. It doesn't get below 30-35 in texas so I start my truck without glowplugs 95% of the time, I wired in a switch to turn off the GP relay so I don't kill them.
Great video, I live these old tractors especially the old diesels, & cast Kohlers.
15 horsepower goes a long way in a diesel. Kubotas are way easier to work on than some Deeres. I found that ford diesels (lgt14 and 16D) are very easy to maintain and work on and will do everything a Deere or kubota will do.
All the little Japanese-built 3-cylinder diesels are pretty tough in terms of reliability and torque output. I would like to get my hands on a Ford with the Shibaura diesel one of these days...watched one sell for $825 at a local auction about 8 years ago.
@@MichaelTJD60 I got mine for 1,000. And I consider that a steal in great condition. 800 dollar range is very reasonable. You can make a case/ingersoll 3 point hitch work on them fairly easily. If you know an experienced welder he can make spacers and the rear end housing has threaded holes. It's pretty simple. I hope you run across one sometime. They are great tractors (especially for plowing!) Merry Christmas
That tractor is awesome, Im looking for a diesel. I think that's a Kubota diesel?
Yes, Kubota D600. I loved this tractor and regret selling it. I plan to buy another one sometime down the road.
@@MichaelTJD60 Thanks, yes they are some great motors
U should check out the 430

Yeah the battery is 7 years old so it will definitely be replaced soon...along with new cables and a better starter.
@@MichaelTJD60 battery has done well then. I bet if you put one in it like is supposed have you could get rid of those cable extensions and if that is a new starter it would roll it over way better

that definetly did not start right
Battery and cables were junk. I installed a new Miata battery and all new wiring and it cranked over and started up much faster after that.
