Flatheadpuller 6 #31 Posted April 6, 2014 How about some more info on the trans reduction housing? Where did the drop box come from? Looks very nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim_M 178 #33 Posted April 7, 2014 I think he's talking about the one that's already there, bolted to the front of the transaxle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deere Hunter 54 #34 Posted April 7, 2014 To me it looks like it still runs the top pinion? Maybe just a 1 to 1 gearing just to get everything lower in the chassis? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris11 184 #35 Posted April 7, 2014 No it had a 3.125 drop box. That was junk. so im making a new one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim_M 178 #45 Posted April 22, 2014 Is the shifter that Zach Kerber sells? Or is it Midwest's version of the posi-lock shifter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim_M 178 #48 Posted April 22, 2014 Yeah, I've heard good things about them. Both of my tractors have a lot of Zach's parts on them. He's a good guy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
