  • In "Taryl's Buddy", Taryl deals with a local customer who relies too much on his buddies for everything, which doesn't always work out best for him. After the intro Taryl goes over how to properly replace a T-Box (Gear Box) on a Dixie Chopper zero turn and goes over what causes the mower not to drive. Another funny and informative how-to video from your friends at Grass Rats Garage! And as always, There's Your Dinner!!

    Taryl your amazing at what you do. I have learned more from you in afew weeks of watching your videos than 4 years in mechanics classes in school..... Well i been out of school 20 years, mabe its my memory.... :-) .... Regardless your videos helpped me take a motor bought 7 years ago bran new out of the 1981 frame i put it in and put it into a alot newer Agco Allis frame. This motor has mabe 4-5 hrs worth of run time on it so i couldnt let it sit un used any longer, or mabe i was just tired of using a push mower, even tho its self propelled :-) , yes i would turn it over every few months so there was no seizing going on anywhere, i did have to clean the carb out and jets.... Thank you so very much Taryl, my new riding lawn tractor is all done and ready to go now. Without your help i would still be out there bitching and yelling......I mean working on it... Keep up the great work, Again, Thank you!!!!!

    when the mower is new, replace the oil with grease from a grease gun and it will never leak out. We did this with the pearless gearboxes on the old walker mowers and reduced gearbox failures by about 90 percent.

  • @BJSmith-ll3uw
    @BJSmith-ll3uw Před 4 lety

    I tend to use the hi tack on the side of the gasket the seals to the part that is easiest to clean next time. For example I glue the gaskets to the water pump (automotive). That way the next time the water pump needs replaced, the gasket typically comes right off the block. Also, when replacing a woodruff key, I found that tilting the key so it is slightly lower on the outside makes reassembly a little easier.

    April 2018 I drove 2 hours down to Albert Lea Minnesota to buy a complete not running Dixie Chopper Quad Loop 2002 for $100. It’s a 20hp 50” cut. The deck is extremely heavy and I think it’s even heavier than 60” Toro decks I’ve had. Two of the blades are on upside down. I’m hoping to get it running soon so I can work on my Toro 522xi.

    Peerless T and L gear boxes used to come with Bentonite grease. It's a clay based grease and never leaked out. Stayed sticky to the gears and bearings forever.

  • @donaldroberts7018
    @donaldroberts7018 Před 4 lety +1

    You mentioned the gearbox pulley was on upside down and somebody must have worked on it prior to you. I just replaced the hydro drive belt on my 2009 Classic 2760 and the hub on the pulley was on the bottom. I bought this new and nobody has ever removed that pulley so it was put on that way at the factory.

  • @michaelreynolds3592
    @michaelreynolds3592 Před 6 lety

    Just gotta say... Taryl, you've given me the confidence to totally rebuild my little Snapper classic. All I have left is the clutch. It mows and runs strong but if it even looks at a slope.. it stops and I have to give it a little push from the seat. Maybe you'll be able to do a vid on it. Let me know how hard or easy it is.

      I run 10W30 Super Tech Synthetic the engine starts easier and I am very happy with the oil all around. The oil is still good as new after a whole mowing season though I will change it before spring anyway. I cross referenced a Fram automotive oil filter that is designed for synthetic oil's against the Krohler part number. Works like a charm!

      This is only a simple gear box, it needs lubricant, but it really wouldn't matter what is used, as long as it provides enough protection. The hydraulics are controlled by the pumps that are on both sides of this box, and don't use the oil that's in this box.

    • @blueovalfan23
      @blueovalfan23 Před 6 lety

      ADAM MOSHER I'm sure you have it going by now. If anyone needs to know, I've done it with nuts and bolts. Dump a handful in there and something liquid, whatever's handy. I used kerosine, about 1/2 a tank would be more than enough. Shake the hell out of it, drain it and check it. Should be good and clean. Might have to flush it or repeat the process a couple times. You can fish the nuts and bolts out with a magnet when done. I wouldn't get to violent with it either, you don't want a spark. The problem is, the carb. It's probably going to need to be worked over as well if the tank was dry and gunked up. I'd dare say it might be a seat/valve issue. It'll probably need gaskets to if it's been sitting to long.
