Plastic Washer for Axles

Recommended Posts

Bill D

Does anyone have a part number or source for the plastic washer that goes between the hub and transmission housing on the Eaton 1100's.  Can't seem to find a part number in the diagrams.  Thanks. Bill

 I am told there is suppose to be a thin plastic washer with 1 1/8 inch I.D. and about a 2 inch O.D. that slides onto the axle before the hub is put on ---- to be between the rear back side of the hub, and the tranny housing, to prevent the "wearing" against each other -- However, I see no such part listed on any of the web sites - PartsTree, Ereplacementparts.com etc? Any insights? Or yes or no info is appreciated?

New to me too, but they do exist!  :confusion-confused:   Wonder if those Hillman drawers at the hardware store would have any that size, know they have nylon washers.

I looked for a bit this morning and I could only find a picture like this. Nothing referencing where it may have originally been on the tractor.

Funny that the feed has two posts about plastic axle washers, both being 6 hours old.  The ears must be buzzin for :wh: projects today!

That's a 1st for me also.  What horse are we talking about??

 

I see...Eaton 1100.  That explains why nobody knows.

This part is found on the 300, 400, 500 series tractor between the hub and axle housing.  My friend's C175 doesn't have them and we wanted to add them.

Some models have the hubs very close to the transmission housing, the washer is there to protect the parts.  Always press the seal in a bit so it is protected from the washer.  Older models may have enough distance that the hub contacting the housing is impossible.

found it on Jacks Small Engine parts --  # 106826 for 520H in their diagram of transaxle @ $9 - - the reason i did not find on parts tree is they don't show it in their diagram for Transaxle -- but it appears in blow up of Tires and Wheels -- had not looked there ?????????? Duh

@lynnmor  Actually, the older (1958-1960's) have the axles that have the hubs close to the transmission castings.  The newer (1970's) had longer axles because of the difference in tire widths and the fender make up.  In the newer models the hub always get mounted flush with the end of the axle...it is the same with the older models.  In the Wheels Horse transmissions, those washers aren't really needed...if hubs are mounted correctly.  :eusa-think:

The xi machines have them too.

On some machines a reason maybe the axle ends in the differential can come in contact and puts a heavy side load on the circle clip of the opposite side axle. The hub rubs the washer instead??

Those plastic washers are probably dust shields to help keep grit from getting into the seal.

great insight --- in this case the "older" is a C175 Hydro - an '80 and an '83 --- -so the issue you noted is pertinent -- if you set the end of the axle "flush" or not what the "gap" would, or would not be?

@JoeM  I see what you are thinking, but I have never seen a left axle force out a right axle by destroying a "C" clip.  It is just not going to happen because of the axle gear and pinions.  Let's not over think this.  It is about spacing the hub from the transmission casting and the friction that can be caused if the hub ends up rubbing on the axle housing.  Wouldn't you guys think you would hear that, of see it if you looked???  :eusa-think:

      Can I change the hoses on my GT1800 without draining the transmission?  Thanks.

      I have a GT1800 that I have swapped an M14 into.  The original drive belt is too long for the Kohler.  I tried a 7473 belt and that was too long.  I'm guessing I need an 81" belt.  Does anyone know for sure?  I'm thinking it should be the same length as a 314H?   I'm trying to avoid multiple trips to TSC with the price of gas.  Yes, I do have the correct hydro pulley on the Kohler.  Thanks.

      I wanted a pedal control for my recently acquired GT1800.  This is what I came up with.  It still needs some finishing and I may rework the foot pedal.  It's basically bolt on other than drilling a 7/8" hole in the belt cover.  I'm also considering building an automatic neutral return if I can find the right torsion spring.  I would appreciate any input and advice.

      I've got an Eaton 1100 in a GT 1800.  I noticed that it pushes quite easily after it had been sitting and not running for awhile.  The manual says the transmission should lock up when pushed, but this one doesn't.  I've had it running and it does move okay.  It will lock up if you try to push it right after you shut it off?  It hasn't been running in a month, and now it pushes easily.  Is this normal or do I have a problem?

      Hi members,
      looking at picking up my first red tractor this weekend, but the owner has discovered and disclosed what appears to be a leak behind the "brake drum" which is just behind the PTO clutch. Photo shows oil pooling at the bottom of the drum.  Looks like seal 253-44 could be the culprit.  I'm guessing this is a relatively easy fix, but if you have done this or have expertise/advice to share, I'd love to hear your thoughts before I make a deal.  Thanks!
