I have a line on a Cub Cadet 582 special that I want to buy for my brother. . If I get it I guess it would mean I would own a CC for about a month.  He has a Crapsman that the front wheels and bushings are shot.

| I had one of those but I think it was a 782 with a KT17 in it when I was out in Illinois. Had a real nice tiller set-up with it and a huge deck, maybe 54". It was a brute and made very short work of the yard work. Those red ones were only sold at IH farm equipment dealers is what I was told. |

| For what they ask for the red ones you'd think they were green and yellow. I only own one CC and it is yellow and white so I can't help except to say that they seem to keep their value. |

| It should be like having power steering with that opposed twin. They are much lighter than the KT and can be found very cheaply if you need a replacement. |

Phil,
Wern't you the one who wrote the story about hooking up to a CC and draging it all around with a B-112 or something like that?
If so, while you own this CC, reenact it and take pics!!!! :) |

something to that effect...It was a B-1.
I passed on the CC that was for sale. Turns out that the 582 special is a cheapened up 82 series. It has a horizontal engine which is connected to a right angle gearbox then to an aluminum vertical drive transmission through a belt. Plus the guy was out of town and would not close the deal. I wasn't going to chase him down when he got back to beg him to sell it to me. |
