Good video. Pro-tip: be sure your mower is completely new and clean, without years of caked-on oil, grease, grass and dirt, like mine!
Fabulous Video, Followed the steps here and replaced my bad TORO transmission easily. Started @ 2:00 pm, completed the project then mowed my entire lawn and it is now only 5:00 pm. Thank you.
Thank you VERY MUCH for this video! I used it to replace the transmission on my 2011 Toro. I couldn't have done this without your video. The instructions were great and easy to follow. Well done! 👍🏼
@@repairclinic can you make a video with the Toro front wheel drive? Please
Replaced the transmission and belt today using the video instructions. The video and instructions were most helpful. I had to go purchase a square driver to remove and install the three screws on the belt guide attached to the transmission. The #2 square drive was the size that fit these three screws. Thanks for posting the video!
Great instructional video. Well presented and easy to follow. Made my job very easy. Thanks
Hello from Australia🇦🇺. Great video. First class tutorial. Keep up the great work. Thankyou. 👍
Wow, this is exactly what I need to do. Great explanatory video. Well done and Thanks!
very good video and instructions, though my wheels run at full speed all the time. do you think I need to replace the transmission or is there another fix I should look at?
Nice video. Good help tool on Tore push mowers transmission. Replacements.
very good instruction. thanks für this !!! Additionally I would like to see how the transmission unit is contructed or can be repaired. In the video the transmission unit only has been replaced by a new part.
Do you have a video for front wheel drive transmission replacement or is the procedure the same? Thanks
We're glad to help!
Can you guys make a video for the Toro front wheel drive self propelled mower, PLEASE?
Love your vedios, they are right on.
Nicely done, Thank you
Probably obvious to you, how do you determine if it's actually the transmission that needs replacement and not the belt that needs replacement or some kind of tension screw that need adjusting?
Has anyone opened up the transmission of self propelled mower? I have a Toro front wheel drive. It is the plastic split case. It does not want to come apart. I am curious if a bad gear inside can be replaced?
Would the same steps apply to Transmission Assembly No. 106-3956 (2004 Toro Personal Pace)?
I replaced my transmission and everything seemed to go back together fine but now the mower just wont start. It was running fine when I replaced the transmission. Mine is a toro 6.5 hp model 20076. could dirty gas have gotten in carb when mower was on its side? Im' not even getting a spark it seems. plug is gapped to .030 and smells like gas. plz advise and what i should try. I thoulght i had this fixed and now it just wont start.
I love you guys ❤ best videos
I changed the belt, but afterwards the rear wheels turn on their own, without pressing the progress bar, what should I do? Adjust transmission cable? If yes, how much? Thanks for your help .
This is different to some that I have worked on,. Is there some diagrams available to learn how they function? thanks
What parts do I likely need to replace if only one of my wheels occasionally locks up when pulling backward? The mower works fine moving forward. The gears on my rear wheels look OK and seem to turn fine when raised off the ground. With weight on them they seem to want to lock up. I have a 2010 model 20332. Thanks.
+William Maniscalco If it is the wheel that is driven by the transmission then we would suspect a transmission problem and the whole assembly would need replacement. www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Transmission/1219178/2705544?TLSID=1773
The repair description is great. There is a repaired model. Broken rear pivot arm nut hole. How can I fix it?
No matter how much I search on the internet, I can't find the part. please. model 20340 (7.25/163cc)
So there is no tensioner adjustment that we would have to do my cable seems lose could this mean I need a new one then
Thanks for the video. This helped me to replace the transmission on my Cub Cadet E18J. In my case there was a plastic sleeve over the axel and that prevented the assembly from sliding out. Due to a welded cross bar, I could not find a solution. So, I just cut out the plastic sleeve and then everything went as shown in the video. I figured I'd mention it here in case someone else hits the same problem. I'll amend my comment here if I find out later that the sleeve was really needed.
Good stuff thanks!
Excelent explanacion .thanks
Could you tell me how to determine if it's the transmission that needs to be replaced. Thank you.
The problem is not with the transmission itself; but the pinion gears on each end of the shaft, when they don't get greased every season the pinions have one-way clutches in them to engage the forward motion of the drive shaft to turn the wheels in a forward motion. Grease those pinion gears and the shaft they ride on and problem will not occur
Do you have any video showing this procedure on a Timemaster 30 inch? Thanks a lot
ferfreud Not at this time.
Thanks. Mine was so old and dirty and grimy that it didn't come apart. I watched the video to make sure it was supposed to slide out. I lubed with some Kroil and tapped it out with a ball-peen hammer.
Perfect. Thanx.
Where do you find the transmission and shaft part for a 220001987 Model 22038 mower?
Question :
Is there a Toro part number for the two transmission shaft snap rings?
If not what would you ask for?
32151-61 on my 20332
I'm having the same issues as Stacy on my 2010 model 20332 mower. Wheels bind up backing up, and grinding noise when engaging transmission. I have changed out the tension spring on the handle, the transmission, both rear wheels, drive belt and drive pulley. When adjusting the cable, if I take out all the slack as directed, the wheels spin even without pushing the handle. So I have left a small bit of slack. The only thing I haven't changed out are the two brass gears at the ends of the trans shift. They appear to be ok, since they only contact the plastic gears on the inside of the wheels. Any ideas on why this is still happening?
The transmission shaft should turn freely unless the drive pulley is being turned. The transmission sometimes will stay locked up after releasing the drive handle until you push the mower forward a little and them pull it back. The cable should have a little slack so it is not trying to turn the transmission pulley all the time Only when the drive handle is depressed.
We do not have a front wheel drive Toro transmission replacement video at this time.
You'd think after 8 years.....
My transmission has left to right movement of the shaft. There is a clunking sound from the wheels. Do I need a new transmission?
Our 2004 (model 20017) mower has lost the self-propel and has a grinding noise when the bar is pushed down (personal pace). We replaced the belt and adjusted the cable and still have the problem. Would this be a transmission problem? I noticed one of your replies about the back wheels locking up when being pulled backwards and that has been a problem we've had the past few years as well. P.S. I wish our mower was as easy to disassemble as in your videos! Ours isn't designed as well. :\
If the gears in the rear wheels and the drive gears are OK, the transmission is most likely the problem.
It turned out that the replacement belt i purchased from home depot was the wrong size (about 0.5 inches too short). I found the right one on line.
those transmissions have clutches?
My mower has a blade clutch that is in the way of the drive belt. Do you have a video showing how to remove that?
Link Christensen No. Toro's website (toro.com) often lists service manuals although you will need your five digit model number to look up the manual.
OK. Thanks.
Bad gas will not cause the no spark condition. You might have got a little extra oil in the cylinder and fouled out the spark plug. I would try a new spark plug, and if you still get no spark check the flywheel grounding arm. If it is touching the flywheel even when you pull the control lever back it will ground out the spark.

It is probably similar, but it isn't the exact same.
ALL THE VIDEOS AND NO ONE HAS TALKED ABOUT THE MAIN DRIVE BULLKEY ON THE SHAFT.
will this help my wheels bind when they go backwards
If the wheels are locking up and not turning when pulling the mower backwards it may be the transmission causing this issue. You will get a little resistance from rear wheels but they should still turn backwards without too much effort. If the belt is trying to grab a little this will also make the rear wheels harder to pull backwards. Make sure the pulley on the transmission turns free when the drive lever is not engaged.
Where does the 2144306 bushing go?
I removed rear left wheel and noticed gear worn on shaft. Replaced gear and key and both wheels are turning. thanks
Great job John!
Can we just pull out the transmission and not replace it with a new one? Would this make the mower a push mower and still function OK otherwise?
Yes. Since the transmission shaft is not connected directly to the wheel you can remove the transmission assembly and use it as regular non self-propelled push mower.
I have a Troy Built 6.75 hp mower with the left front Splined wheel locked up. How does that wheel turn with spline on the wheel shaft that will not turn/Can anyone help me out here?
The splined part looks to be pressed on the shaft.
Old Guy If it is one of the self propelled wheels then the transmission is likely defective and needs replacement.
***** Thanks I will check that after I get it to run.
I have a toro model 20074 with rear wheel drive and I noticed that only the right wheel will spin when engaged.should both wheels engage?
+John Eroyan Probably something broken in the transmission assembly.
@@repairclinic The pinion gears have one-way clutches in them they only should turn in a forward motion.
That is why you can pull back on the mower to back up. Lack of grease on the shaft and inside the pinion gears causes the condition that John Eroyan has. Grease the shaft and pinions each season and you will solve the problem from happening.
@@repairclinic The transmission itself hardly ever goes bad.
Looks easy enough. Though I think I now only need new rear wheals and new gears, not a new transmission. Thanks.
gene814100 Thanks.
great video, but why the gloves on a brand new , clean mower? lol!
I CAN'T GET THE TRANSMISSION TO ENGAGE THE SHAFT IN IT. THE SHAFT HAS A LOT OF LEFT TO RIGHT MOTION; BUT WONT TURN THE WHEELS.
If the pulley is turning, the drive shaft should also turn. Make sure the belt is not slipping. If that all looks good, the gears in the transmission are most likely stripped and the transmission will need to be replaced
I have to hand it to the Toro at least they're using bearings unlike the lower-grade Husqvarna mowers like the lc221 which does not and even if you are actual axles are in good condition will start wearing through and then bad things will start happening to gears and everything down the line
šikovný Slovenský muž na opravu nepotrebuje pozerať video,ale to vymení aj zo zavretymi očami 😊
Kosačka sa nesmie nakláňať do strany,lebo natečie olej do valca a potom nenaštartuje.Naklonit sa smie iba na riadidlá.Alebo zložiť motor,a potom sa môže podvozok otáčať akokolvek.
Cant someone just change the two gears (the pinion and the bevel)in the transmission instead the whole transmission
Wendy James Normally the manufacturer does not offer the parts like that. More often than not you have to buy an assembly.
So glad I have a Snapper self propelled instead of this MTD junk. It took me 10 minutes and $6 to replace its drive wheel. The Snappers cast iron gear drive rearends last several lifetimes too since they are designed so one can actually do maintenance on it such as changing it's grease & seals when needed. The life of these plastic gear rearends are measured only in months to a few years. They are designed as throw aways from the start, most costing at least $100+ uninstalled once shipping is applied.
No self propelled unit made ever compared to the Snapper rear drive design. I would bet a 20 year old maintained Snapper will still outlast these plastic geared units about 10 to 1 as 30-40 year old Snappers are still used daily by lawn care businesses in every city. They just slap a new engine on them and go right back to work over and over again.
These mowers shown here are absolutely pathetic!
Nice video, but, i see 2 flaws, #1 the video went too fast and several important steps were omitted, #2 the proper way to install the blade was omitted, otherwise this is a nice start for anyone doing this for the first time.
You do know there is a pause option, correct?
I will never understand why Toro made plastic gears inside the rear drive wheels 😂
Why you remove a brand new transmission then you you replace it with another brand new transmission??🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣
Lol beware this might require some effort
These Hank Hill level vids are dumb cuz how many brand new mowers need replacement parts..try the same tricks on old rusted together machines that really need repair and see how simple and easy THAT is and see if you stay as clean as the guy in this vid.
what do you want them to do, dip it in mud and water and rub dirt and sand all over it? It shows you how to do it. The end.
Seriously? This very good video is clearly intended as a means to understand the basic steps of this job. Everyone's situation will vary, and it's up to you to deal with rust, wear, dirt, etc. on your individual mower. Showing a grease-covered, dirty mower would make it a lot tougher to see the parts, and not help the training one bit. I'm just very grateful this video exists; it helped me a ton.
Oilsmoke Jones you, sir, are not very bright.
Great informative video.
China built bullshit. Literally have to disassemble the whole mower to fix the self propel transmission SMH
