how to fix plate on c 160

Recommended Posts

zekepiks

I was just wondering if there is a tried and true method of fixing the plate that bolts the frame to the c 160 transmission without having to separate it and have it welded, I have acquired a fel and I know that as much as mine is cracked I should do something before I mount the fel

                Thanks for any replies in advance ,zekepiks

Your best bet is to have it welded and add another plate on the front side if your putting a FEL on it.

This is how I fixed the frame plate on a 520H whick is almost the same as with the C-160. 

No welding required.  Use 1/4 or 5/16 angle iron in corners of frame plate.  

You should replace the four original bolts with ones about 3/8" or 1/2"  longer. 

Set the FRONT of the trans onto the 2x4 block to apply leverage and close the joint between frame plate and trans.

Look up this topic.  I have a pic and measurements for the plate that Toro used to offer.  A local machine shop cuts them out for me on their laser jet cutter.
