Cub 1482D?

[Jacob Michael]

This is just a crazy idea I came up with, but has anybody considered making the "perfect" sgt? For instance, the 1482D, which would be the 3-cyl kubota from a 1772, clutch from a 582, and Farmall A transaxle on an IH-built 982 frame. Also, would it be possible to add an auxiliary hydraulic pump (for lift, remote hydro, etc). Please keep me posted on your thoughts.

I'd just buy a 1772 and leave it be. Your version may be perfect for certain tasks....but it would not be at all what I would want. I would prefer the hydro just as it is for my uses. Everyone's version of perfect will be different I guess.
