    @kaylamarie8309 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    The transmission on my Troy-Bilt self propelled mower stopped working and it turned out to be something broken in the bottom part of the plastic trans housing itself..probably me trying to bang a replacement wheel onto the axle. Be careful with any horizontal stress on the transmission!.. I bought a replacement trans as i couldn't find just the bottom half of the housing clam shell for sale online. Interestingly all the gears inside, worm gear..big gear etc are steel so i kept the old trans and axle as a unit for spares in case the new trans breaks. The old one only stopped working due to a transmission housing structural failure. Great vid as always Sir! 🙂

    Thanks for all your videos. My Briggs & Stratton XC35 is stuck in Self-Drive. When I pull the lever the Self-Drive engages and off we go, unfortunately when I release the cable the lever spring on the Self-Drive no longer has enough tension to return the lever and disengage the Self-Drive. I either have to re-tension the spring or buy a new one. This obviously means I will have to dismatle the rear axle from the mower. Is this as straight forward as it looks?

    every brand is different as far as material used to make the transmission. I have seen snow blowers with brass gears chew themselves to scrap. Then all you can do is replace the auger unit. Lawn mowers are the same. Even metal can wear its self out. Now days they are designed to be replaced.

      +william murray also the drive pully on the engine crankshaft above the blades. it will wear a belt groove in it and the belt will wear quick and will not grab the belt so the belt slips. If after the pully and belt are replaced and the tension is adjusted and it still doing the same thing, then it's the transmission going bad. Doublewidesix on you tube shows a Honda trans repair that might work.

Otherwise, good video, for someone who doesn't have to replace the bleeding thing!

    Buy a Snapper rear drive unit and be done with this crap. There is nothing that even compares to a Snapper as they last several lifetimes over. A used 25 year old Snapper rear drive unit will still outlast a brand new one of these 10-1. These are nothing but garbage and are designed to fail fast just as he mentioned so why waste your money?
    These can cost upwards to $100+ every few years. THEY ARE JUNK!!!
