- Well I met up with Fearlessfront and we locked the transaxle for my off-road Murray. We had a day full of engines, lawn mowers, welding, laughing and tools. Thanks again man!

Well done! It's fun to see myself in HD
Love all the "we's" when fearless did all the work.
You don't have to be a dick he was a kid at the time
I can't wait to have this whole thing working! Gonna be awesome!
it looks perfectly fine. I carefully looked over every gear and they all look good.
Well just watched 90% of you videos yesterday and today.funnest thing i did was weld up my rear end.
arn't the washers used as thrust washers to help reduce end thrust wear on the alloy case.
So when you turn around won't both tires try and spin at the same time??
I'd recommend using a anerobic sealer. I locked my diff the same way and killed it in 2 days. The pin busted. Luckily It didn't scatter apart, so I think I can weld the whole mess together, one thing that was a joy was with the anerobic , the cases split easily and cleaned off with some brakecleen and a rag. Maybe it was the 5 th gear donuts and burnouts that broke mine ;)
What model is that Lincoln welder?
thanks!
instead of welding the gears to the axles, I just welded the for smaller gears together. just did a quick tack on them and took the big ring gear off to fully weld it all together.
ok thanks because I was just locking mine today and I was welding my axle shafts really hot but not that slow, had to grind off excess welding material that kept it from meshing right
Yeah. It makes it harder to turn, but it just means that if you have really good grip on your front tires that you'll tear up some ground under you're inside rear wheel when you're turning.
Im a worthless welder and I was wondering if you might know if normal mechanic and exhausts places might would weld my transaxle up? also I have a Tecumseh peerless mst 206 and was wanting to know if that is a good and solid unit
hello, thanks for the video, I am writing to you from Italy, I have a problem with my lawn mower, with the forward gear if I am going downhill it picks up speed and you can hear a noise at the transmission (continuous beat), which it doesn't do if I go downhill in reverse. What can it depend on? Thanks Marc
Easier than stick welding for sure, and as you can see a little 110 Lincoln did just fine.
im locking an oil filled transaxle today, did you drain any oil before opening the case?
Grind the inside ends of the shaft off to give you some clearance you're going to regret leaving that thrust washer off
It's the same exact thing, only you only have one gear ratio. The way an MTD changes speed is by a variable speed stack pulley (kinda like a snow mobile clutch) although, if you're gonna make an offroad mower, don't use an MTD, get something that has an actual 5 or 6 speed transaxle.
How did you get yours back together and spining so smoothly I did it to mine and it us really hard to spin
the Brass bushing need to be placed just right
What size pully do you have on there
looks like a 4inch or 3inch
today i took my tractor for a romp in the snow. I ended up getting stuck so i stopped and put it in reverse. As soon as i got to reverse i heard a bunch of grinding and now none of the gears work at all. What do i do?
what gasket are you putting on and is there a set amount of gear oil that you are supposed to put in or can you just fill the trans-axles to the top
I just used red RTV insta-gasket. And you are supposed to put in 3/4 quart of 80w-20 gear oil.
+LaPavoniMac is it possible to do this with a hydro?
I have a question how is a automatic trasnaxle and a manual transaxle?
Thanks for watching man!
Ummm put it together and see if when you shift the gears manually on the bench if the axles turn when you turn the pulley on top of the transaxle. Do this on the bench!
how do i know if my transaxle is oil lubericated? i mean do i see if there are any plugs?
There's usually a black Plug on the front of the transmission
dude can you do a video on ocking the rear on a mtd lawntractor please.
Hey were did you get that silver pulley that was on the transmission at the beginning of the video
go to tractor supply
k will do
make sure its a 5/8 bore and dont get the cast iron ones they melt
I re greased my transmition a few weeks ago but lost the 2 ball bearings that goes with the shifter. Il just be zoomin along and it will drop out of gear or the gear doesnt match up with the number on the shifter randomly. Is these problems caused from the balls?
ya u need those balls
Yes
well,then check out your shifting mechanism, there should be 2 springs and bb's somewhere...fearless front has a video that explains it. look up "how to:lock a transaxle" and click on fearlessfronts video,he explains the little bb's
is this at your place
Haha no not really. Because you've now made it so that the inside wheel cannot turn slower around the circumference of a circle like spider gears are supposed to do. I've found that leaning over the outside wheel in a turn works the best.
Right?! Thanks for watching my video of you. Haha
What do you mean?
Why locking it ?
yep,exaczlly what lapavonimac said
so I will change that for the locker
Yeah I drained all that I could.
na thats fearlessfront's garage
the smatest thing is tig weldign it i think
it's not
open it up. if it looks destroyed then it probably is
Get a new transaxle.
No gas shitty weld
how is that weld shitty?
