Oldskool 6,643 #116 Posted February 11, 2020 Thanks again @wildman .Everything in the trans works great but the shifter falls passed the shifting tangs when in 1st. Then you can't find a gear at all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oldskool 6,643 #117 Posted February 12, 2020 Thanks for all the help @wildman I think the shifter problem is solved and the spring is on the pulley brake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oldskool 6,643 #119 Posted February 12, 2020 Well they say that 3rd time is a charm. This is the 3rd seat I have thought about putting on it. I'm sticking with it. As ornate as it is, it looks older than the others. I think it will make the tractor look older seeings how the Speedex is quite basic looking to begin with. 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
