Need a picture of a 8 speed brake band setup

[Dave85zxt 0]

Hi guys,

I am in the process of converting my 856 from a 4 spd to an 8 spd. I bought a 8 spd transaxle from a C series tractor. I started to fit it up tonight and found that the brak band setup is different than my 4 spd. Can anyone post a picture of their 8 spd brake and linkage? This would help me a ton in trying to make this work.

Thanks,

Dave

Just happen to have mine apart.

Thanks. Looks like I am going to have some fab work ahead of me. The brake band on yours is a little different though. Your bolts thread into the brake band while mine go through the brake band and thread into the support on the transmission.

Is this more like yours?

Hope This Helps.

That's it. Thanks a ton.

Thanks for all the help guys. I just got it running this weekend and everything worked out great. I had to make a custom rod to connect to the brake band and I had to cut down the dipstick. All things considered, it went pretty easy.

Glad to hear it worked out. :omg:
