FYI OLD MECHANICS TRICK on holding small pins, springs and balls in place during assembly.
COAT THEM WITH JUST ENOUGH HEAVY GREASE TO KEEP THEM FROM MOVING OR FALLING OUT.
The grease will melt away after a minute of operation due to pressure or heat.
On "DIS" Assembly always disassemble on a large bath towel or beach towel, this keeps the small
parts from rolling, sliding or bouncing of the table into the WTF regions of time and space.
Tnx
Vasolene also works well. I’ve used it in automotive auto trans before.
Couple of really great, common sense tips. thank you!
"WTF regions", LOL. Yep I was thinking heavy grease also, good tip.
You have the best delivery, so calm and easy-going. If it was me, I would have spent hours editing out bouts of cursing, tools throwing and, of course, crying. I like how honest you are about what you don't know too. But, at the same time, I always get the sense you'll figure it out and then show how you did it. That's not always the case on RUclips. I agree with the poster who said you'd make an excellent teacher. Most watchable and informative videos I've seen on RUclips. Really appreciate the effort. Now it's time to tackle my own.
You are lucky to have had the schematics I did not have them, when I tore into mine to fix it. And it was a learning experience for me for sure, but I fixed it and been using it every year sense.
Thanks man! I know seeing a video like this can really give people the confidence to preform this repair. Likewise, it is assuring to know the parts really one cost a few bucks on these transaxles.
My latest and last ever John Deere has 100 hours on it. Mower deck bearing, 3 carburetors, charging diode pack, fuel line for (alcohol in gas), and now I am doing the hydro drive. I got a lemon for sure but I really appreciate your video. I bought a Yardman to do my lawn while JD gets fixed. Oh yeah, tires are always flat too. Keep the fix a flat in them just to use the piece of junk.
Well done, good clear explanation. This video is a little over five years old. Have your neighbor check his Craftsman transmission. I have bought & picked up 5 Craftsman & they all had transmission issues. Cannot roll. Unfortunately none of them had a simple frozen brake or lever,linkage issue. They were all between 5 to 10 years old. I enjoy your channel.
Stay well, Joe Z
Thanks friend for making this video. I'm tackling the same transmission. You have made my day taking the time to show us how it's done.
I was just given a lawnmower that has this in it, my old one has the heck don’t know the name but going over what would be the best. Old one has powermore engine but this one has Kohler engine like that better. Trying to build one good one, that will do as needed. Thanks for you tear down on this feel much better about it. Good job.
Awesome. Ball Bearings and pin dropped out and I thought CRAP where did that come from. Your instruction calmed me down and I looked at the schematic. Thanks Bud you did a great job institutionally.
Great info thanks for taking the time to show how this is done I am getting ready to take on a K62 C
Excellent video,
I am looking at a John Deere to play with and from what I've heard these Transaxle problems are why they get junked.
The Deere I am looking at is up at the Dump. I might just use the engine on another tractor build in the future as I am currently putting together a Murry Yard Pro to Drive around town. Where I live is a Tiny Town and all I have to do is add Taillights and a horn to be Legal.
I have people asking me to Fix things like small engines and appliances Bicycles wrecked vehicles all the time.
We don't have a regular shop that does this kind of work here so it gives me something to do and it helps people here out.
I guess you could say I am retired but someone always has something that they need help with.
I enjoyed watching your video and I think you did great job putting this together. I'm sure other people will find it very
Useful too.
Thank You for posting this!
My JD L111 with T40 transaxle had the same problem as yours. Not difficult to drop the transmission and troubleshoot but getting parts took some calls to locate... First I called Tuff Torq (the OEM) and they said apologetically that JD would no longer permit them to sell direct to JD mower owners and that I needed to call JD parts support to find a local dealer. What a joke. As I feared, JD said the transaxle is "not user serviceable" and the only option is to replace with a new ($800+) unit. So...I went to the Tuff Torq website, set up an online account, located the needed parts (no catalog info for the T40 but plenty for the K46 version which is largely compatible), and placed my order! Bingo! Don't ask, don't tell. Just do it. I ordered the differential gear kit ($27.01), sealing cap ($3.59), filter ($10.72), and Tuff Tech hydraulic oil 3 liters ($29.93) and I'm back in business. Thanks for your great video!
FANTASTIC VIDEOS! thank you so much for taking the time to show us this. I learned a lot and am confident i can rebuild mine if need be. Good to know about those break away bolts too. I may even just go change my oil out to spec.
Hola 9oooooooooooooooooooooooo
Thanks man you'd make a awesome teacher...you made it look so easy I'm actually thinking about trying to take this project on myself.
Excellent video and instructions. Best I've seen. I've rebuild a few tractor motors but never the transmission. If I ever have to do that, this video will be very helpful.
Thanks for putting this up for us student types. Good instruction is hard to find.
Thank you for taking the time to do this video- very helpful!
Thank you for making a video that enabled me to repair my Tuff Torq transmission system. You did a brilliant job!
The little key/ tick tack thing is your hydro release. It allows you to tow or push your tractor when you pull the lever.
Thanks man this video was EXCELLENT. Just got the transaxle out and found your vid now to rip it apart!
Excellent video! Nice camera work with good lighting and clear explanation of the whole process. Thanks for your fine effort!
You did a great job on this video like some of the other posters you make an excellent teacher, thanks
Thanks for the video..I learned alot.. Retired Larry
Thanks made it easy I wouldn't want to go spend money on a new mower thank you sir you were very helpful
Very good video sir! I would like to point out that I used Mobil 1 5w-50w synthetic oil and a new filter when I changed oil. I was told to do initial service at 50 hours and every 200 hours after but these units have a lot of issues so its a crap shoot in many cases. Good luck and thank you!
your getting up there with sixtyfiveford and donnyboy......well done young man
G'day you explained things well I can understand you ,I am going to give mine a go , was worried about it but after watching this I'm going to give it a go . if I can't repair mine at least I have another mower to use . thanks for posting an informative video. Mal. In OZ
It's nice watching a young Man of this Generation not throw away what cost way to much from the start, this Chinese Steel has ruined the Reputation of lots of good Mechanics!
P.S.
Experience would have told you, that Case has to sit by feel, knowing the Gear and Case meet, i still commend you for digging in, that's Americanism!
Take a lot of pic. if you don't have a repair manual...also for holding pins and small stuff together put grease on the parts to hold em in place...won't hurt a thing.
Cheers mate, great vid and how to.... I am using it to fix my st38 transmission
Really enjoyed the video, you are a great instrucyor sir!
you did good by inspecting the motor and pump anyways!
I am confused regarding the oil. On video part 1, at 7:13 you indicate that tuff tuorq recommends 5w15 synthetic oil. On this video at 17:33 you mention you think it is 10w50 synthetic oil. Which is their recommendation?
As per Tuff-Torq, the K46 Trans takes Synthetic 5w50. I use Castrol synthetic 5w50. I get it at my local parts store. Doublewide says that John Deere recommends 10w30. I dont know about what JD says. I just know what Tuff-Torq says.
You are great at doing this, Very informal and easy to understand.Great Job
Thanks that is quite a compliment! I appreciate it.
Good video! Thanks. It would real;y be nice to find an animated video that shows how this device works in slow motion. The original designer almost certainly has one for their own conceptualization and pre-prototype research.
Dude that's awesome I'm going to be looking at 1 tomorrow hopefully they have the same transmission and I will know what to do or look for thanks
Thank you very much for all the tips and you are good doing your videos. Best regards.
Excellent video thank you for the time you put into sharing this.
good job I'll use this for future references of this video that's cool if students are using this as a learning tool great video I'm loving them so far
Now you made me want to find out why the one I had on this Poulan died. I just want to see what happened more than anything. If I can fix it, I will, then resell it to make my money back on the one I bought to replace it with. I am not keeping the mower, Its pretty much already sold as soon as I put new belts on it.
Very good video. Interesting you said the three 14 mm bolts were made to break off! Looks to me like them breaking off was a bad thing for you. Why would they need to be made like this?
Nice Video, Regards from Germany Stephan
What symptom did your tractor have? When mine gets hot and you move the lever forward to full speed it almost sounds like it's grinding. I think maybe my gears are shot? Great video!
Good thing you did take the pump and assembly out as there was far too much metal floating in there just to have changed the differential gears. Your rebuild would be short lived unless you clean it out as you did. Take care. Doug

Very informative. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've spent endless hours watching your videos as well as some others on small engine repair because I'm reinventing myself at 65 just to stay vital as well as starting a repair business of my own in Massachusetts. Is there a good single source for specs on small engines i.e. torque data, compression readings and valve settings etc.? Also where is a good source for parts? Thanks again for what you do.
Great video I should change the oil in my transmission if a person goes to the web site will it tell what oil to use?
The springs inside the pump and motor were broken on mine.
I have the same Transmission in my Craftsman 4500 54 inch cut 26 horsepower
Use fresh bolts for the critical ones you must torque down. Always.
Thanks for the wonderful video, I have the same gearbox in our lawn mower, that started making strange noises just before starting up, I broke down the gears and could not find anything, except that behind the two springs (in this video time 5:28) there is no bullet, I got 2 bullets, and lo and behold, the machine is running, but upside down, when I push the pedal forward, it runs backwards, and when I press the pedal backward, it runs forward. No ball is shown on your video, do you need a ball in there? Can this also hang together with the direction of rotation? I have no other explanation for that.
I made the same mistake too. If the forward/reverse is backwards when your done you put the wedge upside down. Apparently some go together with the fat side up and some, like mine, go fat side down. There's mention of it in the parts schematic too.
good day. Good video but why did that gear go wrong. I checked this all out before buying. The cheaper rear end you don't or can't oil, I went & bought variable pulley, & figured if I can't , a cheap mechanic could, Thanks
my troy built garden way just quit right in the middle of mowing today, I tried to engage the forward knob but it wont engage feels real spongy does not want to go into gear, is this maybe the same problem as you are doing here? its about 10 years old, what causes the hydrostatic trans to go out,
Unservicable usually means the labor cost more than a new transaxle.
Hi everyone. I’m currently tinkering around with this transmission and am wondering if there’s anyway to test the pump and motor? My don’t seem bad but my lawn mower would stop moving after about an hour until it cooled down again.. No visual damage. Pistons still tight in housing..
Nicely done, thanks.
Where did you download the schematics from I'm actually rebuilding one first time also
I enjoy your videos thanks for sharing
@southerncrescent1401 I had the same thoughts, to answer your question I just called Tuff Turq and they said to use 5w 50 Full Synthetic
Thanks for a good instructions. I have work me some transmission.
You learn me more!!! ☺☺☺
I got mine for free it’s an 02 lx279 and I was told it works but loses torque when hot, but when I turn the shaft that the pulley would be on nothing spins? So would that be in that little compartment?
Over heating these hydro transaxles by towing heavy rollers or by not keeping it clean around the cooling fan will really shorten its life, or by using the wrong oil like JD do.
Use a drop off lube will hold Small parts in place
how often do you have to change the hydrostatic oil in the transmision?
Backward forward go the wrong way after rebuilt k46 transmission
What were your issues that made you tear it apart? Mine looses ability to climb sight include after tractor warms up. Would it be worth doing for those symptoms?
So was this used in a racing application and not enough weight oil was used?
Just curious because I am using this type of transmission for my Not Gokart but Kar build for "high " speeds.
I'm just going to use a slightly heavier oil.
Very likely improper heat treating on that spyder gear.
Parts really ONLY cost a few bucks ( editing above comment)
Hello from Norway. Where did you get the parts from ?
Thanks for sharing
You have done very well with this, except for the late diagnosis of the chewed up differential gears. That's ok, you overcame that..
Someone needs to hire you, give you a few pro-tips here and there, and soon enough you will be making top dollar in the field.
9-13 vid... lol I'll guess someone has already contacted you! Best rc
I was wondering have you ever worked on a 85 chevy lwb 4x4 before I bought one and it needs fixing up
uh man those easy outs are awesome
Great video!
Bravo excellent !
What would you say causes this? What would be your guess?
Nice job, thanks
por que se me invirtió la marcha, es decir apretó para salir para adelante y sale en reversa??
where do you buy the parts?
BTW is that an eagles hat you're wearing? Go Birds!
I heard an innat are you from Pittsburgh PA
Hey can you help me troubleshoot my mower? Its a mid engine 12.5 craftsman with a peerless hydro transmission model 2000. My issue is it drives fine in reverse but will barely move forward or not at all. I dont know if the issue is in the transaxle or the pump. Do you know if the gear that connects to the transaxle just spins or also moves in and out. If it only spins can I assume the issue is in the transaxle?
Do you have an email or something, if you have some time maybe we can chat a bit. Where are you located?
Where did you get the parts breakdown if you don't mind telling me, PLEASE!
The web site of your local John Deere dealer should have a link to illustrated parts list for all John Deere equipment.
Always check your ski matic
I need some help, why do we now handle forward and go to the back and vice versa where the error is?
Darko, are you saying you have had your axle apart for service and now when you want to got fwrd, the tractor goes bkwrd? if so, you have installed the Wedge shaped part of the motor reinstalled upside-down.
Drill out and add a drain plug and magnet on bottom of this cheese o transmission.I will asap.
Brilliant idea check it occasionally.
Great info!
wish you should pulling the gear
if that worked you are very very lucky man
Is that the XTL1050 cub cub cadet trans ?
Yes, and many other brands and models.
I'm in Australia, where did you get the gear set from
It is written in the description. Click "SHOW MORE" bellow the video.
Good video
Another good video
I would of stopped after I took the clamshell off
Wow! awesome.
Like the skeeee matic lol
may talk funny to you but excellent hands on skills super steady and easy to understand very nice video keep it up!
you can buy one new for $ 230.00,,,and the parts to rebuild are wayyyyyy to high in costs,,,,ole fart Jimmy
Where?
Not true.
This Tuff Torque K46 is about $800 on Amazon as of now.
If you catch things early just new 5w/50 Synthetic oil & clean filter is enough.
Wait too long to Service it needs parts.
Dude just to clarify a pump is a pump a motor runs on electricity and an engine runs on internal combustion you can't run an electric motor while submerged in any kind of liquid cause it will short circuit
Not true friend. Every fuel pump today is mounted and immersed in the fuel. They are of course electric.
scheiß werbesendung
Damn cheap Chinese steel.
