I am in the process of putting a Kohler M14 back together.In checking the cam endplay I found that I needed 0.015 thousands shims.I checked and found Isavetractors have these shims in stock.Just in case anyone needs any I think the cost is reasonable and its nice not having to go out looking to a dealer for them.By looking through his listing the shim is also used in the balance gears.I didn't know that.Good info, I think.JAinVA

I have made my own washers out of shim stock to get a job in the past. Being able to purchase them sounds much easier.

achto ,

    I thought about doing the same thing.In fact I just ordered some bronze washers to make up some governor gear thrust washers.I know I have some grenade gear shims in the shop but can't locate them.

In lots of 5 the shims are around $2.00 each.I may just order additional amounts for the parts drawers.

      For Sale NOS M12S Short Block
      By Rick3478
      For Sale NOS M12S Short Block, still in the original box.  I bought it pre-emptively when Kohler was phasing out the Magnums.  Thought I would have it on hand if one of mine needed it, or maybe I would find a tractor with a busted rod for cheap.  Neither of those things happened, the darn things just keep running.
       
      Part number 77 522 35, probably built in late '05, it's the combination replacement kit Kohler made to fit WheelHorse or Gravely, machined to bolt directly into the Gravely transaxle, but also has spacers to mount WheelHorse PTO clutch/brake.  Also has a bunch of gaskets and seals packed with it, probably all you need to install it.
       
      And it's heavy, so it's not practical for me to ship.  Buyer arrange to pick up near Elida OH, I can lift it about knee high to help load.
       
      Asking $800 or might consider trade for a good center mount grader blade.

      4hp Kohler k91 issues!
      By Jennifer
      Husband wants some advice… lol.  So we did an engine swap today on two suburbans because we could not get the one engine to spark all the time to get it running!  The engine ran last year before parking for the winter sleep…. Points were changed out for new the engine was cleaned to make good contact has new spark plug new coil condenser we even switched out the fly wheel today thinking maybe the magnet was weak…. Advice???   It would where are you out yanking on the recoil five or so times and maybe only get the points to fire twice if you’re lucky..  checked the gap and pull again… same thing over and over!  Thanks in advance!
