callum12 256 #1 Posted May 25, 2015 Hi all,picked up my transaxle for project agri-800 today, really good condition. its the 2 piece case type with three speeds and 1" axles. the sticker with that pat number on it has rubbed away and all I can make out is "**8*185" does anyone know the missing numbers marked by the asterisk so i can find a PDF and other info?thank you very much,callum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,127 #4 Posted May 25, 2015 The patent number is the same for all Uni-Drives ( 2988185 ) and does nothing to assist in identification.The most current service manual covers most models. Are you able to post pictures of the tranz here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 14,893 #5 Posted May 25, 2015 I think that patent number is on most all of the uni-drives. The only way to narrow it down is by the size and location of the brake drum shaft. Download the uni-drive service manual and compare images of the parts diagrams to what you have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 2,545 #6 Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) From the pic you showed the other day, yours is the early type 5053 from a commando, with raised drum. Later ones are mounted on the next shaft lower down and spin faster. Edited May 25, 2015 by meadowfield Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
