Just purchased a 149 with a 50A deck. Now I know the carriage is diffent from a 50C deck But I am thinking about mounting this on my 782. I know I would at least have to change the pulley for the drive spindle because of the different size belt. Is everything else the same between the two decks? Should my carriage of my 782 fit with the 50A deck?

Thanks for the help!

SCOTT N. - Shhhhhh Don't tell anyone else but I've used Rotella 15W-40 in all My Cubbies for 13 yrs, since '96 when I got My PSD-powered pickup. I have switched to Rotella SB 5W-40 synthetic in the K321 I rebuilt & installed in the 72. If You check the jugs it's also S-something rated for gas engines as well as C-Etc. rated for diesels.

Well we sure have kept Kraig busy! So is there an official "dead-782" club? There is getting to be several of them.

Hello everyone. Does anyone know how the bearings come out of the cast iron ends on the 38" mower deck? It looks like there are rubber seals on each end. I should have this project done just in time for the first snow fall

. Thanks

yea, i needed a quart of oil for cubbie 71. so i went down to the cub cadet dealer near by and bought a quart of cub cadet brand low ash 30 weight engine oil [whith and green bottel] for 5.70! thats ok if you like spending money. i would consider something of same quality for less price. humm....???

 

[mstetar]

I am having trouble attaching the mower deck to my 105. I think I have the mechanical part right, two attachments in the front and the spring loaded pins in the rear. I threaded the belt around the front pully and adjusted the pullies until it seems nice and snug. When I engage the take off the belt came off. I should say that the deck did not turn well when it was off the tractor but it mowed like a champ last season. I greased the fittings. Am I missing something that allows the deck to turn easy? I checked the 105 manual but there was no info.

Jim S,

You would also have to relocate the left front link hanger on the 50A mower deck to match by drilling a new hole so it will match your 82 series undercarriage left, front arm location, which you will have to use.

Hey Brad,
That's before the 23 degree "Stones" were on the 234. Works much better now.
Speak for yourself. I KNOW the sheep weren't-a-skeered with me around, now you and Bubba well.......
