D-180 Snowblower question

I was wondering if someone would look down the chute of their D series single stage blower and tell me if it looks like the hole in the top of the blower case is off center to the chute. It's like it is not cut out enough towards the front of the chute. Thanks for the help!

Would you check the drive sprocket on the blower and tell me how many teeth it is. Mine is 13 tooth and I think that it has been changed previously.If you ever need bearings for the drive pulley / sprocket shaft it is a Peer 1630 RS. Thanks for the help.

I'll try to see if I can tomorrow night.....I looked when I got home at 10pm but I may need to remove the guard to see the sprocket. Maybe another owner has a better view before me but I'll get you the information.

Well without taking the thing off the tractor and taking the drive cover apart I looked and felt and drew a diagram....I can tell you that there is not more than 13 teeth. I doubt if there are less also.

I really wanted to be a hero.....but.....lol...that is a tough little sproket to get to.....

We had about 3-4 inches of snow the last snowfall so I thought I'd try this D series thrower out. Was done with the driveway (about 5000 sq ft) in about 10 minutes. It turned me into a snow magnet though. I was covered in snow. I see why guys have cabs....jeez.....

Once you use a cab you'll wonder how you ever did without one!

That was the only thing I was disappointed with on mine. The drive was completely cleared much to fast.

      GT14/D series lift cylinder modification
      By tractorboy79
      I was looking around on ebay and noticed that hydraulic actuators from John Deere 312, 317, etc models appear to be Identical to a Gt14 or d series lift cylinder. My question is would a new cylinder from ebay be able to replace one that is on a gt14 or d series?
       
      Images below of cylinders to show similaritys.

      HELP! D-Series Clutch
      By BuffaloD200
      '74 D-180
       
      My friction disc in gone on my clutch.  I saw the old post about making a new friction disc, so I'm not concerned about that.
      I managed to remove the front clutch plate and double v-belt pulley.  But I can't separate the two.  When I took the assembly off the spiraloc washer popped off on its own.  I HAVE READ THE MANUALS.
      So I should be able to just remove the pulley from the front clutch and continue with step 4.  The v-belt pulley is loose as all hell and flops around like a dead fish.  It seems to be hung up on a ring or bearing race.  
      So my thoughts are grab a BFH or sparky the blue tip wrench.
      Is there an unpublished step 3.5, or some trick?

      D-Series One Wheel Peel
      By BuffaloD200
      Hey all, 
       
      My '74 D180 has a lot of trouble pushing snow.  Weighted tires, but nothing else at this time.  I've found it gets stuck frequently and only one wheel spins.  Do these tractors not have a limited slip/locker arrangement?  How does everyone manage with the infamous one wheel peel?

      D series Belt Replacement
      By BuffaloD200
      Hey all, I need to install a drive belt on my 75 D180 for my snowblower.  I've looked through a bunch of D-series owner's manuals, and none seem to mention replacement procedure.  The PTO pulley is fixed, save for engaging the PTO and there is minimal movement at the snowthrower pulley. There's no idler or tensioner as far as I can tell.  Do I have to remove the PTO pulley?  That seems to be a required service item.
      Same question for my 80 D200 as well really.  
       
      Using the recommended 4L490W belt.
       
      Thanks

      Governor for a D-180
      By ihatephones
      I got a D-180 for $250, and the governor is messed up, the points won't open or close, and I took it apart and was being stupid and messed some stuff up in there, and now I need a new one.
      Where can I get one that's not on eBay for $200?
      I also forgot to say it was a Kohler K482, and I'll throw some pictures of the tractor in as a treat.
