BradKahler 378 #1 Posted 10 hours ago I'm in the process of swapping the 3-speed from my 1966 656 with an 8-speed from a Raider 8. After reviewing the parts list I've come to the conclusion that the only part that is different for the brake/clutch mechanism is the rod from the pivot to the brake band. The 656 uses rod # 3935 and the Raider 8 uses rod # 9599. According the the picture in the parts book the 9599 rod has a kink in it. I've got a rod # 103538 that looks very similar to the 9599 rod but it's a mirror image. Unfortunately pictures don't provide dimensions and angles so what I'm hoping for is someone can possibly take some pictures from their 72-74 Raider 8, Raider 10, Commando 800, or 73 8 HP 8-speed, or 10 HP 8-speed. With pictures and dimensions I should have no trouble making a useable facsimile of 9599. Thanks!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 79,943 #2 Posted 7 hours ago Brad are you adding a second pedal? The 3 speed tractors all had a single pedal. I believe all the 8 speed tractors had two pedals. That'll cause an issue with linkage. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
