Stevasaurus, the tranny went back together beautifully — thanks to your guidance! Those videos that you shared are indispensable  :text-thankyoublue: .

The proof will be in the pudding, when I get back in the saddle and tell it to giddyup!

There is no way to guide both shift levers up through the frame rails, because the brake cross-over shaft (from the brake pedal on the right to the brake linkage on the left)

is in the way. I will either take the tranny off once more and angle it down to try to sneak the hi/lo lever under the brake part, or I will have to dismantle the brake assembly

to get it out of the way. 

But this will have to wait a week, as I am off on a photographic safari, north along the New England coast. Fenway Park tomorrow evening (I am, for what it is worth, a  NY Yankee's fan)

and in Maine for lobster by Wednesday. So it probably won't be until next Sunday that I have a chance to work this problem out. 

If anyone else has run into this problem, I would love to learn just how you solved it. This whole project has been like a wonderful puzzle (and,so far, I don't have any pieces left over!).

You will not be able to get  the shifter under that brake crossover shaft without doing more damage than you need :angry-banghead:  (my advice is take the brake part out  it's much easily that way) been their and done that :thumbs: And I don't think the brake assembly was in before the transmission was installed at the factory.

I would listen to Chas here...even the manual says you may have to figure it out with each tractor. :bow-blue:   Thanks Chas. :)

      predator 420 pto
      By BrianStasC-101
      Hello all. I am looking for suggestions on adapting the pto from my C series tractor to a harbor freight predator 420 13hp engine. I know the predator motors are a controversial topic however it is the route I have chosen for this particular machine. The intent was to mostly use it for plowing so no PTO required but it would be handy to have. Looking to hear from someone that has successfully done the swap that may offer any advice before I attempt to transfer it over. Just looking for any general pointers that will help me along the way to make it go as smoothly as possible.

      GT14
      By Doug B
      Hey guys,I have a dilemma I need some help with. I have a 1969 GT 14 that I replaced the transmission and pump on. For about 2 weeks afterward everything worked great, but while mowing at a pretty good pace I noticed a shudder and the tractor slowed a little but not bad. The more I rode it the slower it got until it barely moves. What stumps me is the hydraulics are still very strong,as in I can back the 3 point under the bumper of my truck and if you lift the arms all the way up the front wheels of the tractor will clear the ground. Have checked the tow valve and checked the internal filter,but no luck. I have also checked and replaced the forward and reverse bypass springs and the lever is moving the cam to full travel, forward and reverse. Any help would be appreciated.
