First off.... I DID NOT DO IT! The neighbor told me his 312-8 was up on the hill immobile. He uses it for cutting the grass between the Christmas trees. Problem was it was stuck in reverse and couldn't even be pushed. Further in the conversation it came out that he got stuck in a groundhog hole. He tried to rock it out of the hole. He said the smoke was flying! I assumed it was a belt, clutch problem. So up on the hill I took off the fenders and shifter. With a long punch I was able to force it into neutral and coast it home. Today I got the transfer case apart. Not a pretty sight. The price of the 3 gears on Partstree is $665! The 312-8 will get a transplant from his smoking WorkHorse. Here's pics.

Looking for a little more speed
cschannuth posted a topic in Restorations, Modifications, & Customizations
Hello all. I'm new to the forum and have my Dad's 1978 C-161. How can I increase ground speed? I don't want to race the neighbors or anything but I cruise the property with it. I don't mow with it but use it to move trailers, pull a lawn roller, pull spreaders, etc. It's in really great condition and everything works but ground speed is pretty slow. Plus, as you know, Low range is really slow. Thanks for any help and I hope I put this in the correct section of the forum. -
Hi. new to this forum . my reliable 1067 started behaving strangely while polwing this Virginia snow.... Third gear is slower than it used to be & pulsates, especially when going up inclines. Second gear also, but not as much. [ using high range]. I am thinking maybe lost some teeth on a gear? are used transaxles and/or tranny parts available? I'd like to keep this one running if i can get what parts i need & its not too expensive . Any advice and thoughts welcome.
