    Thanks all for the replies! What is a V61 front tire? Or who makes it? I saw the AT101 from Carlisle some time ago...but it looked more like an ATV Gator type balloon tire rather than a tractor tire. I've done google searches on that size. Its just an in between odd size I think. Not...

    Anybody know if any company offers 24x12x12 bar tread (ag) style tires and 16x6.50x8 deep rib (not smoothies) fronts for my 782? The original Goodyear SoftTrac's are getting pretty dry and I've always wanted some "tractor" tires. But the 23x10.5x12 ag's don't seem as large as my turfs...and...

    Well I've owned my 782 for 10 years now. Originally it was my grandfathers who purchased it new at our local IH dealer. He purchased a new 3235 Cub in 2000 (from the same IH dealer) and gave me this as a gift when I bought my house. He passed away last fall and I decided to give it a good...

    I'm sure I have the gear drive pin removal tool...because I bought it when I was working on my 72. Now that I've got the fenders off and everything is spotless clean...I'll run it and try to locate the leak before I drain/fill the hytran and install my new 6096 filter. I started out with a...

    I've read the FAQ on hydro's speeding up and slowing down. My 782 seems to slow down going up a hill, yet does not really speed up going down a hill. I do have tractor movement when I move the lift lever...but not much. I can live with it. It doesn't really move...just feels like it wants...

    I have some questions about my red 782...built shortly after 1981. Should I post them here or in the MTD/CCC forum? I've always posted them here...as I always did before the MTD/CCC forum existed. Seems like I always got away with it since it was a 782. They're special aren't they? I want...

    Dennis Frisk: Last week I talked about my 122 smoking after sitting for two years...but only during throttle down, then back up. Well...after switching to 15W40 and running for a few days (mowing)...the smoking has stopped completely. I must have had some "stuck" rings and perhaps the...

    Thanks Dennis. I've had the download for sometime but have never read the troubleshooting section. I've got a manometer from my "motorcycle days" when I had to tune 4 carbs into sync. Maybe I can do that. I've not ran it for 2 years really. I thought it was strange since I don't remember...

    The K301 on my 122 puts out a little puff of smoke when I rev it from idle to full throttle. It doesn't appear to be smoking under all other running conditions. When its warm its not as bad. But the worst case is if I bring it down from full throttle than rev it right back up. Am I in need...

    I took my 122's 48" "sheet metal" deck apart for some repairs and paint. Upon reassembly...I noticed that the two outer pulley diameters are slightly different. And further, different than the center. The three vary about 1/2" OD from one to the next. Any reason for this? None of the other...

    Haven't been here for a long time. A long long time. But had a question as I started working on my Cubs again this spring. Will the cast iron rear end/hydro off a spare 123 I have work with my 1984 782? The 782 has disk brakes of course and is aluminum in construction. Was just wondering.

    782 Power Steering conversion

    Is it feasible to adapt power steering from an 1862 into my 782? Or is there a better donor tractor? Thanks!!

    Knowing my 782 Manuals from Binder Books are buried somewhere in a box in my new garage...does my 782 require 2 gallons for a complete Hytran change? Seems like last time I did it...I had two gallons and had about a half quart left over based on the dipstick telling me it was full. Also...can...

    Thanks for the tips on a 782 rear axle cover fill port. I found a Summit Racing Catalog which has a B&M auto tranny sump pan drain plug kit which might work as well. I do like the sight glass plug setup by Wyatt. But since the 782 has a dipstick...I can just as easily check that way too. I...
