Out with the 800 in with the 120

[The Gman 476]

Finished up work on the A800 ranger. Time to figure out the c120.

The ranger got;

Complete rewire. 👍

New points.👍

Re-timed and a new head gasket.👍

Carb rebuild. 👍

Full service. 👍

My daughter is gonna use it this year. She has just under 1/2 an acre to cut.

 

Now the challenge is the c120. Picked this up in Jan. Price was right and I was really just after the motor but the rest of it just had to come home too. Not sure if it's all there but the fun will be in finding out. So far I figure a broken clutch pedal and one rotted tire. The po had already taken it apart to restore but other things got in the way. The motor is stout and roars like a tiger.

I'm  gonna put it all back together first...... fix what I find then tear down to restore. 

 

It's the transmission I don't know about. Po said it works fine......... Hmmmmm.

Don't know much about them at the moment but "forum" research ans help here I come!!!

Transaxle oil is low but clean and the tow valve doesn't look like it's been loosened for a while. The frame sat outside for a year.

Thought I might change the oil and run it with an electric motor to see?????

The axles are free and smooth.

Anything I should be careful of?????

It is a piston to piston Sundstrand at least there are some things you can do to fix them up.and some parts are available if needed.  The older hydro gear units were pretty much repair by replacement.
