Which is the forward Bevel Gear In a MTD 618-0163B Transaxle

wsmm · May 1, 2015

I need to replace the bevel gear and the clutch collar in my MTD mower. The trnasaxle is part number 618-0193B. I don't know if the small I.D. (part# 717-1362) or Large I.D. (Part# 717-1363) Bevel gear is the forward gear. Also does anyone know of a good place to get these parts that has both a reasonable price for the part and a reasonable price for shipping and handling?
Thanks,
Bill

I can't tell you part number, but I am 90% certain that it will be the gear on the right hand side of the pinion. Right hand determined by you in the seat facing forward.

p.s. You probably waste your time if you don't replace the shaft too. I think the problem is the gear wobbles on the shaft and its the fit between the shaft and gear that is the problem.
