Hi Rick, thanks for these videos. You explain everything in detail and even I can understand most of it. I have the same tractor. It’s a 2004, I believe, and runs pretty well. It springs some leaks once in a while and makes noises that weren’t there before. I keep it clean and greased and check the oil before starting up. The one in your video looks brand new and must be kept under cover. I’m 80 years old and try to learn from these videos as mush as I can. I appreciate how much people know about machinery and how to fix things. Wish I knew more but I learn so much from TH-camrs putting yourselves out there to teach us and help us learn. My generation had Shop for the boys and Home Economics for the girls. I hated it and would much rather been with the guys learning neat stuff. I love your kitty. He’s a real ham and is so cute and is crazy about you. Such good company.
It's held on by 3 bolts on the drive shaft and 3 on the fly wheel and then the isolator just pops off. And the drive shaft just slid out from the back. So in theory the drive shaft will come out with the engine but it would be a pain to reassemble with out two people, one to guide the drive shaft and one to put the engine in place. at least that's the way I remember it I hope this helps.

Like part 2 as well... When you changed the isolator how was that drive shaft attached on the back side? Just came off like nothing. Thx
