A little quick and easy hub swapping

The C81 that I just recently got only really had one issue,a funny looking hub repair. As I leaving the shop this evening,I thought I would take a look. Which then led to a quick hub swap. Once the tractor was jacked up I could turn the hub 2 inches or so back and fourth on the axle before it would stop. The hub was held in place with a collar and set screw on each side. I had a older set of hubs on the shelf so it doesn't match the other side but it has good hubs on both sides now. I was amazed when I got the hub off,the axle and key were both fine.

I did put the pictures in the correct order but luckily the computer/forum has decided to jumble them for fun when I posted.

Hard to believe it didn't booger up the axle, that hub is probably the worse I've seen that was still in one piece! Good job getting it back together. :thumbs:

I've never seen one worn that bad Rusty.  Good thing is that it came off easy right?  :)

I wouldn't have. If anything I would have taken a 8 speed that is already out that I have laying around and swapped it in. :)

      C81 Mower Drive V Belt
      By Rob R
      Hi Guys my C81 has a 38 dual blade, side discharge mower deck (# 0537SC01) The deck belt also goes around the mandrels through the mule drive and also to the PTO so it's a huge belt. The current belt is stretched and ready to go. I believe it is around 1/2 X 142 inches but not sure was hoping one of you might have the correct size. Much appreciated. Rob

      8 speed transmission problem
      By Shea Worden
      Hey guys, my wheelhorse c81 got a new transmission last year and now it’s grinding when I drive. First thing the brake pulley is on a higher shaft and doesn’t work with the c81 brake rod and hardware. Second the bearing behind the intake pulleyhas fallen out, which I assume is the grinding sound. Is there a way I can fix it without taking the whole transmission apart? I don’t have enough knowledge to do that kind of repair. Thanks so much -Shea

      Where can I find a good new drive belt for my wheel horse? I cant seem to find any online or anywhere else. I figured I would run it by you guys and see what surfaces.

      Decals
      By Shea Worden
      I am getting a decal set for my only tractor, the C81. I was wondering if the 55 dollar price was too much. Let me know-I am getting them tomorrow. Also,they look pretty authentic to me but i am a newb. Some feedback would be  great.
