oldredrider 2,547 #1 Posted August 11, 2013 FINALLY found a like new condition mower deck for my GT-14. I've got it mounted but I'm not sure how the old style mule drive hooks up. If any one has pictures of the mounting, I will be (hopefully) forever grateful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldredrider 2,547 #3 Posted August 12, 2013 Garry, I just downloaded that file and yes, it does answer my questions. You're like a cold beer on a hot day! Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #4 Posted August 12, 2013 OK, it didn't quite answer all my questions. I still need to know how the short arm of the mule drive hooks up. Any pictures you guys have of your set up would be GREATLY appreciated. Fourwheels0 will be posting pics of what I have so far. Thanks for your help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fourwheels0 191 #5 Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) here's a pic of his setup. what is he missing? or what's not correct. if we can get pics of a completely setup deck with the belt guard off that would be great. thanks.

cgp_tlspradlin 0 #6 Posted August 16, 2013 Oldredrider, I'm away from my GT-14 on vacation but if memory serves, you have the short shatt hooked to the mule drive correctly. What ISN'T correct is that the other end of the short shaft slides over the step support shaft. You can see this a little bit in picture 2 of the PDF that Garry sent to you. If this doesn't work for you, let me know and I'll take a snapshot of my setup when I return on Saturday. I am cgp_tlspradlin@yahoo.com. V/R Tommy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldredrider 2,547 #7 Posted August 16, 2013 Hey Tommy, I understand what you're saying but the GT-14 doesn't have a foot board support shaft. That's what has me scratching my head! A picture is worth a thousand words, so yes, I would like to see pics of your set up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rboski 114 #8 Posted August 17, 2013 (edited) Paul, I don't have a deck for my GT14 but in the manual for the tractor it does have a diagram that might be helpful. http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/files/download/1834-tractor-1970-gt-14-1-7451-1-7452-1-7453-ipl-a-5255-a-5260pdf/ It's the bottom download on this page. Look at the exploded view on page 9. Looks to me like you swap out a longer bolt on the footrest and then stick a spacer and washer on the inside of the frame to hang the cam arm from. Someone here will know for sure. They always do. Good luck. Rich Edited August 17, 2013 by Rboski Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rboski 114 #9 Posted August 17, 2013 Paul, I was mostly right. It's not the same bolt that mounts the foot rest, it's just another one in front of it. -Rich 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
