Hi members,

looking at picking up my first red tractor this weekend, but the owner has discovered and disclosed what appears to be a leak behind the "brake drum" which is just behind the PTO clutch. Photo shows oil pooling at the bottom of the drum.  Looks like seal 253-44 could be the culprit.  I'm guessing this is a relatively easy fix, but if you have done this or have expertise/advice to share, I'd love to hear your thoughts before I make a deal.  Thanks!

7443 is the CR/SKF replacement brake shaft seal at your local bearing and seal supplier for the transmission.

I don't see a brake drum in your picture. Looks more like the front of the engine.

Thanks Garry.  I’m going by the name as shown in the parts diagram. (Actually, it’s listed as “Drum - Brake” ). You are correct that it is indeed in the front of the engine, on a shaft that connects to the PTO clutch. Looks easy... hoping I’m right!

      Hydro Hose Change
      By Bill D
      Can I change the hoses on my GT1800 without draining the transmission?  Thanks.

      Drive belt length.
      By Bill D
      I have a GT1800 that I have swapped an M14 into.  The original drive belt is too long for the Kohler.  I tried a 7473 belt and that was too long.  I'm guessing I need an 81" belt.  Does anyone know for sure?  I'm thinking it should be the same length as a 314H?   I'm trying to avoid multiple trips to TSC with the price of gas.  Yes, I do have the correct hydro pulley on the Kohler.  Thanks.

      Another hydro pedal
      By Bill D
      I wanted a pedal control for my recently acquired GT1800.  This is what I came up with.  It still needs some finishing and I may rework the foot pedal.  It's basically bolt on other than drilling a 7/8" hole in the belt cover.  I'm also considering building an automatic neutral return if I can find the right torsion spring.  I would appreciate any input and advice.

      Hydro lockup. Problem?
      By Bill D
      I've got an Eaton 1100 in a GT 1800.  I noticed that it pushes quite easily after it had been sitting and not running for awhile.  The manual says the transmission should lock up when pushed, but this one doesn't.  I've had it running and it does move okay.  It will lock up if you try to push it right after you shut it off?  It hasn't been running in a month, and now it pushes easily.  Is this normal or do I have a problem?

      Plastic Washer for Axles
      By Bill D
      Does anyone have a part number or source for the plastic washer that goes between the hub and transmission housing on the Eaton 1100's.  Can't seem to find a part number in the diagrams.  Thanks. Bill
