About a month ago I asked if you can swap the ring gear in a cub cadet Original transmission to the other side of the pinion and then power it off the pto end of the crank of an engine. (Otherwise, if you leave the transmission alone, you have 3 speeds in reverse.)
I finally had time to get into that job today. The info that was posted was very helpful. The only snag was that I had to modify the case a tiny bit to get the carrier back in with the ring gear on the left side of the pinion.
The snag was that there is a boss with a hole in it just to the right of the center bottom bolt hole. I presume it was used for another application and it had to be removed in order for the ring gear to be inserted that way. I sawed it off with my sawsall, then cleaned out the chips.
Now for brakes, as this frankenstein unit somehow ended up with later axles that have disk brakes on them.
Thanks for all your help.
Kelvin.
