- In "Skippy & The Skipping Transmission", local yokel, Skip The Second Guess Man comes in to use Taryl's restroom facilities before dropping his mower's transmission problem on Taryl. Does your transmission skip or jerk even with a new drive belt? It could be the problem Taryl addresses in the video causing your transmission not to drive smoothly (and sometimes not even drive at all).
@ the 48:00 min mark Taryl says "33-40 Inch Pounds" its really "33-40 FOOT Pounds"
Sorry for the mistake sometimes Taryl gets mixed up
So sit back and laugh and learn in another funny, yet informative, how-to video of this Tuff Torq K46 transmission! And as Taryl always says at the end of every video... There's Your Dinner!!

@ the 48:00 mark Taryl wrongfully says 33-40 "Inch Pounds" when it's really "FOOT Pounds" Sorry for the mistake
We knew what you meant by the size of the torque wrench
I thought that was a big torque wrench. LOL
Hey Taryl ( Buck Tooth fuck ) ha ha ha ha my sister has the same smile. We APPRECIATE YOU IN CANADA. We were smoking too much WEED to pay attention to our shop teacher. But as we smoked we did know that there is or would be an easier way to get this Knowledge. AND HERE WE HAVE IT PEOPLE. THANKS TARYL. FROM 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I got a scag V ride hydro pump where the release valve threads are stripped smooth half way down.
Think I could braze some aluminum and metal the existing threads?
Just wondering about the holding power since the hydro pumps are pressurized systems.
Big Difference , but its way worse to make that mistake the other way around
Thanks a million for making an easy to understand set of instructions. My trans went completely dead after 224 hours. After disassembling, I found a pump piston spring ($.83) had disintegrated, and it's pieces gouged out the surface of the pump. Replaced the pistons and springs and the unit, and to my amazement today, and delight, it works! JD wanted $1300. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
David, Where did you get your parts? thanks
I'm a vehicle mechanic by trade, never had to deal with lawnmower transmitions up until mine shat the bed, after hunting on CZcams I finally found a decent video to watch, awesome detail and information aswel as a real good sense of humor, keep up the good work this video is worth it's weight in Gold
Great video. I learn something from you every time. Thanks for the effort to show us all this mechanical work.
Good timing for this video Taryl. I have a Craftsman with this K46 that loses power after about 30 minutes of operation. Thanks for all the detail too.
Thanks! Keeping it light, but educational. You are the best person to do this internet service.
Thanks you Sir,
Another excellent transmission repair job. Thanks for all the good tips.
Thanks Taryl for your videos. People who share their knownledge are professional in ever way.
I used my handy-Dandy tube squeezer for the first time since I purchased it from you.
I was installing a new door gasket for my pellet stove.
The tool works like a charm.
Where was that thing 40 years ago !!
Thanx Taryl....
Your videos are awesome. Your not only a great mechanic but a good film producer and teacher.
Always learn something new with Taryl. Thank goodness for no speeded up bits on the important sections that so many seem to do on the Tube nowadays.
Weak Torq is more like it. My 1966 Sears and 1980's Wheel Horse trans are still going strong and all original. 10,000 hours and flawless
This is an amazing teardown and tutorial on the K46, which i get is very common and econonical. But I would Really Love to see you do this for the K66, which is Tuff Torq's lowest level of ground engaging transaxle. Definately a more permanent unit, stands up to pushing snow, pulling carts, hills... etc. (i have a "Johnny Bucket" on mine, which i am shocked Taryl hasn't had given to him... rediculously helpful). Anyway, if you could do something like this for the K66, I Know many, many guys (gals?) would greatly appreciate it. TT is a Great company for being so open to their customers and owners, really different than anyone in the mechanical world. This was a super helpful video even just for basic understanding and refurbs~ ☮️
I'm so glad I subscribed to your channel! I just had a problem with my transmission when I went to mow my yard for the first time yesterday. Trans seems to be skipping and surging. I will keep this video bookmarked so I can take mine apart next week. Thank you so much!!
Follow up: I took my transmission out and disassembled it with your video playing on my laptop by my work bench. I carefully took photos of it as I took it apart but I messed up BIG time when I put it back together!! I put mine back EXACTLY as you put yours together, but I DID NOT refer to my photos. I installed it and when I pushed the forward pedal, it went backwards!! Took it out, looked at my photos and saw that my transmission has the large end of the wedge shaped part opposite of yours. I reversed it and it now works perfectly. I would never had the confidence to take it apart without your video and help! By the way, my transmission is a K46BT3 and it works perfectly thanks to you!! Oh, and I also downloaded a parts breakdown from Tuff Torq by serial number and it also showed how mine was supposed to be assembled. Live and learn.
Found your channel a couple of weeks ago. You can always tell a good mechanic when they tell you the rite way on how to fix stuff and the real world way to fix it. Love the tool and part's numbers great info. P/s the joke's and costumes are the best !!! Thanks for the great work. And they just don't make them the way they used to. Love the vintage content.
Nice piece of snow removal history. It would be fine clearing a short sandwalk. I wouldn't use it for a driveway. Need a wider machine.
Always the best to watch...Thanks Taryl and Skippy.
I just love these videos! Well done!
Taryl has the best learn’n videos! It’s like “The Reading Rainbow” for GrassRats!! Thanks Taryl for sharing your knowledge with us. 😎 👍
Taryl, I just want to say you are the tip-top Tuff-Torq transmission Technician.
After watching a throwback video of Taryl, the video quality has improved a million percent, and so has everything else. Love the videos guys.
Grabbing your hand after Skippy said he didn't remember washing his hands really made me laugh out loud.
Taryl Dactal here...... it gets me every time. Taryl Dactal. Everytime i run into my buddies that watch the videos, i always greet em saying that, and we laugh so hard it hurts. Transmiss-ion and compress-ion, crying laughing. Like, stomach muscles sore the next morning from laughing. I can honestly say that me and my son cry from laughing soo much. Compress-ion with that short stare at the camera, it just hurts soo much the next morning from laughing, and then trying to say it while laughing just hurts more. To think of that stuff and put it into character is just amazing.
Havent had a real funny video in a while guys. Enjoyed this one.
Great job doing the transmission repairs 👍
As a 74 year old geezer …your video certainly helped me when I sorta turned my K57A up and the gear fell out …dang ….but your expertise helped me put it right back …nice tip on the “ flat spot “ on that pin …
You guys have my sense of humor, love it….
Taryl your not lying, your channel is very fun and so informative... I wish I knew half of what you have forgotten... keep up the great work!
I wish Tuff would make these easier to service. I wonder why they don't have a replaceable filter from the outside and a oil drain and fill so you don't have to remove the trans. Its like they designed this so it wears out after 5-7 years.
That’s an option for some of there models. It’s the manufacture here that asks if they want it or not.
They use it as a selling point to buy the higher end model with the filters and easy service.
Yeah a filter u get from the outside would be great.
@@FishFind3000 crazy, what tier do you need to get to before they include the drains and filters? I recently bought a commercial huskie and no drain and filter .
It doesn't have a charge pump to push the fluid through an external filter. It would be nice to make it easier to drain and replace the fluid though, that may help some.
@@FishFind3000 Agreed on outside filters being an upgrade,need to research whats avalible,and know what your looking at when you go to the shop to buy a new machine,
I always learn something from your videos while being entertained. Keep it up.
Great hack to use the speedwrench. Thanks, Taryl. Always great info coming from your shop.
Watching this and seeing all those parts falling everywhere makes me thankful for my 25 year old riding mower with a regular ole manual transmission!
Taryl thank you for the video showing the K46 transmissions i had one that the springs in motor pump came apart had to replace all pump components. Your videos showed me what to do and not to do. Videos are awesome I subscribed and can't wait to see the further adventures you have.
I've rebuilt a few hundred of these K-46s. Taryl has covered all the best tips and tricks how to rebuild these hydrostatic transmissions.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
As noted, some K-46s do not have check balls for the forward / reverse pressure valves. I've found IDS models with the ball, often have broken springs or the spring have lost all tension from lack of oil or overheating. They are not available individually or in sets like they used too be
Other tips I would suggest regard refinishing the main power body. On some early K-46s, use a 800 wet sandpaper (soaked in WD 40 or varsol) instead of 600 because the grade aluminum has varied over the years these units have been in production. 600 can be too coarse and will gum the sandpaper quickly, creating an uneven surface finish.
The power and drive piston - cylinder internal springs are often broken in the drive cylinder. Unfortunately, the springs are not sold separately by tuff-torq. I do a three step polished for the cylinders, 600 to 800 to 1,000. The result is a mirror finish that reduces future wear and stress points that generate heat.
Tuff Torque recommends changing the oil every 100 hours, which nobody does on 2006 and newer K-46s. Since I refinish the cylinders using 1000 grit wet sandpaper, I've gone 300 hours between oil changes if I install the update filter magnet kit.
Everyone has different opinions on the right gear oil. John Deere claims all K-46s have lifetime oil (*Koff*). John Deere spec is 10W30 mineral oil. Tuff Torque specs synthetic 20-50W. I've tried every major brand of synthetic 20W50 along with a few racing oils. All are fine.
I got really silly on my personal K-46 trans and got all the gears, including the main axle spyder gears and brake drive gear, heat treated using the same vendor that I use for my race car quick change axle gears. It's not a cheap, $175.00. But I've have no wear on any of the gear teeth on any of the assemblies. Pyrometer temperature inspection after an hour of mowing shows case temps dropped by 40 to 50° F from a peak of 230° F. The transmission has 1,900 hours total time. (1,600 since heat treated replacement gearset )
Is it really worth it.. up to you. It significantly reduces gear metal wear and thus extends the life of your filters and power / drive cylinders and the main power block surfaces.
The only seals that I find wearing out are the axle end seals Taryl shows. You can find those at any wheel and bearing shop or Amazon. Look for 19 x 32 x 8 mm spring loaded double lip.
You should be able to find them for $5.00 to $8.00 ea. The vent cap is the real pain in the ass, they are often cracked beyond reuse. You're gonna pay $12 bucks at a JD dealer.
Gear sets used to be cheap from Tuff Torque. Not anymore...
Highly recommended the magnet upgrade kit Taryl talks about if you plan to keep your tractor and expect 800+ hours. I've rebuilt one customer K-46 three times 1,700 hours total time. The third rebuild required very few parts (two used power cylinder springs) and new metal brake pads along with filter and axle seals.
Happy mowing / snow blower riding! Taryl Dactal gets the real job done right!!! Though I would seriously stick a Hazmat warning label on Skippy.
Doug, wow rebuilt a few hundred! Do you mind telling us what the charge is to rebuild one of these. It has to be close to the price of a new replacement I would think with parts + labor .
@@luuk-out-below9804 These transmissions are quirky. Some need a zillion dollars in parts while others like Taryl Dactal has illustrated require very little. I never charged a set price for a rebuild because that's not fair to the customer.
You are right, if you replaced all common wear / poor design parts, it would almost as much as a new K-46. Though new ones aren't cheap anymore. Price one out from your local JD Dealer. You'll be shocked.
JD had serious problems with these K-46 transmissions because JD spec'd 10-30W mineral oil and used big rear tires that stressed the K-46 to the max. As soon as JD went to a really small diameter rear tire and (finally) synthetic oil, the problems with the K-46 dramatically decreased. Cub Cadet had the same issues as did Craftsman tractors that were big tires.
Owners that run them in hot weather, with hills and have large areas to cut (more than 90 minutes) hurt durability in less than 150 hours. In other words, what breaks and needs replacing, is never the same.
@@DougHanchard I have heard most of what you just said before. My cub with the degrading trans is a 2014 with a k44 (i think, its been awhile.) I looked at replacing the trans and it was around 700 dollars at the time, that was 2 years ago, the rebuild kit was 400 hundred. It did not seem worth it to put the money into it obviously. Its still going so I may just drop the tran and try a fluid replacement . I have 430 hours on it .
My husqvarna has the k46 how are those?
I see an old Black and Decker folding work stand back there- a genius devise to grab whenever anyone comes across one.
The top wood jaws are fantastic for putting a vertical shaft motor on to work on or start after you clamp it down.
I just threw one away because the wood was wet and warped and I had no plans of refurbishing. Now I need to work on a motor. This is how hoarding starts.
You inspired me to go to the local junkyard and buy a chipper shredder. Only thing I see wrong with it is the float bowl needle seal was jammed. They let it sit for 10 years. I cleaned the carb , made sure it would pop off with ether. It looks brand new, no scratches on the paint. I’m betting it I get it running mint for $20. Paid $80 for the entire unit
Hello there, great videos. I thought adding a fine mesh screen on top of the grid screen on your stand would save from fishing out any tiny parts from the oil tub. Always learning when watching, at what hour rating do you suggest a trans service? 50 hrs? Cheers.
really well designed , good engineering and as usual great video Taryl .............
Excellent video on this transaxle. Couldn't ask for better! Perfect! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Get outta here fecal fingers! Haha. Actual LOL on that one.
it's true, how many people don't wash there hands!
Thanks Taryl. Very good explanation. I really enjoyed this video.
Thank you! Your advice was helpful! Greetings from Latvia!
Nice to see a skilled set of hands at work.
Great presentation Taryl, Thanks
Very good video as always, can't wait for the fuel additive experiment to see if they start after storing.
I have a Husqvarna with that same transmission. I have hope thanks to you that I can repair it on my own without needing to spend $700 on a new trans.
Thank you so much for this indepth video! I must head to Harbor Freight and buy a magnet on a stick.
LIKE SO MANY MANY OTHER THINGS IN LIFE,IT'S EASY,WHEN YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. AND TO ADD TO THAT,THERE IS NOW CZcams,IF YOU DON'T!
MANY THANKS TO PEOPLE LIKE TARYL,THAT MAKE THESE VIDEOS THAT NOT JUST TEACH SOMETHING, BUT CAN SAVE UNTOLD AMOUNTS OF FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES!
THANK YOU TARYL DACTYL!!
You and the other people are hilarious...great job showing how to fix things...
Great video. I had the same issue, but after everything on the inside looked clean and no scoring, it had to be something else, and I found it. Crap had built up under the left pedal. Cleaned the linkage and lubed, changed fluid with 5w50 synthetic and it runs great.
Fantastic video, and all the people make me watching and learning at the same time❤️👀👍
I think your videos are really informative and I look forward to seeing more. Thanks
P.S you make me 😃 and chuckle
I have had great luck using your excellent videos for the K46 trans. Thank you very much for your vids. Now I have a customer with a K62 trans out of a JD 190 C that has me scratching my head?? It is a 20 year old mower but she has kept it in immaculate shape. There isn't even a tear in the seat and it fires up like a new engine. No more parts available from Tuff Torq. It seems a shame to trash a perfectly good mower over a worn out trans.
yes, this is a fun, learning Chanel, thanks, thank you very much !!
Love your channel, awesome vids!
I had trouble with the tuff torg k46 and entered it blind but will say when I installed it it worked like it should other then that little pin you showed must of fallen out because I can't disengage the transmission. Thanks for the video. The next tuff torq transmission I open I will known what to expect
Love your videos !! I’m a Canadian Grass Rat ! All you did was perfect…….just want to add my 2 cents…..had issues with these budget transmissions losing drive when hot under load……was due to oil getting thin when hot and hydro pump losing pressure from that forward reverse orifice you mentioned losing too much oil though it, due to the thin oil. A fix we found was drawing out oil which is actually equal to 10w30…..or John Deere low viscosity hydraulic oil and replacing it with John Deere Hygard oil or even straight 30 weight oil for customers with lots of hills and pulling lawn rollers. Also I think wear on spider gears is probably due to loss of wheel traction and excessive spinning through differential, maybe a snow blade , snow blower or hilly terrain issue. Love your videos !! Take care guys !! P/ S I use a plastic shower curtain rod decorative cover….for seal installs…….comes in a 4 ft length, really cheap and is Plastic and snaps over axle, crankshaft, whatever, you just snip off in length you need !!

Awesome video, super helpful, love your channel, your knowledge, your experience....So awesome to have a teacher you've never met teach you exactly what you need to know!
I have a few questions on this K46 tranny.
1) What do you think caused all that build up in the filter?
2) Since the differential gears and all the other gears seemed ok, was it just too many hours of use without having a fluid change? I don't know why John Deere tells customers the K46 is "unserviceable" when you clearly need to change the fluid. It's really not that hard...especially if you watch your videos on the K46!....and I was able to get my tranny running again because it had a leaking axle seal and only had 1/2 a quart of oil in there. 118 hours on the x300.
3) Do you think I should flush just flush the fluid at say 200 hours and call it a day if everything is running fine?
Thanks for making this video.
well done taryl. you make a fine teacher.
You do great videos thank you.
You got to love these guys lol.
I no longer use a tractor with this transmission, but could have used this info when mine quit working. Not a very robust unit in my opinion.Very helpful and informative video!
The Tuff Torq K46 transmission is very common in many riding mowers. Overall, it does a good job and doesn't have many problems. Avoid heavy pulling and steep grades for longer service life. Old oil and overheating, combined with neglect and abuse is often the problem.
Yes make sure the fan is in good shape and the fins are kept blown out.
Thank you for the excellent presentation.very helpful.
Depressing that the trans isnt designed for easy preventative maintenance. Clean oil and filter would change the trans life dramatically. Thank you Tara Dactle 👍👍 C. Diesel in New Hampshire
Thank you for the video Taryl 📹
Great video!
I learned a lot!!!
Thanks My trans, doing the same thing as the one jerking and stopping then set for awhile then works for a bit again. Thanks a bunch very instructional video.
Rebuilding transmissions? Ever think about rebuilding a 4r70w or 4r100 Ford transmission? As always good explanation of what you're doing with competenence and comedy to keep us interested. Like a good homily!
Sunday dinner delivered by the professionals.. don't forget the musturd
Taylor, not a comment but, a question. I just had the pumps rebuilt in my K-46 transmission. It moved real for about mowing approximately 3 acres then it started skipping, not moving either direction. Can you give me any ideas on what to do to it now? Thanks in advance. Your videos are awesome.
This video was extremely helpful, thank you so much for making this! Although I tore it apart after watching this, put it upside down so now forwards is backwards and vice versa, it works great besides that haha. I will tear it apart to make it right
Something sure is funny Taryl. Fellow called this morning saying his plastic transmission on his Simplicity snow blower wouldn't move. I said John Deere makes one like that(your video D110). Anyway I think my phone heard me talking and what do you know, brought me here to this video! What a coincidence?
Yes. Fun learning channel. Thank you
From what I remember a lot of the John Deere Tuff Torque K46 hydrostatic transmissions were INCORRECTLY FILLED with generic 10w30 SAE Motor oil due to a mixup of recording the Tuff Torque TL-200 requirements data sheet (restrictions on shipping if they had been properly filled before leaving Tuff Torque factory for final install at John Deere factory so it was most cost effective to fill them right before sale) which was what happened.
However the K46 isn’t exactly built for ease of oil changes and customers of John Deere tractors quickly were encountering loss of power, start and stopping/surging all from accelerated wear in the hydrostatic pump and motors. Forgot which models or years it applies to but if the magnets aren’t completely clogged with powdered friction gears material you can usually just drain the oil out run a little 5w50 full synthetic to flush and top off with the same fluid. In most cases of drop in power, slippage or surging the replacement to correct oil will resolve things
And also not to mentions the sound effects definitely very funny 😄 😆 🤣 😂 awesome video there keep up the good work there 👏 👍 😀
I learned a lot about the insides of a mower transmission from this! Even though my mowers are all working now, I am still thankful for the video. At the end, you both appeared to be in front of your green screen, even though you were 3D outside
The 4 sided diamond honing block from harbor freight, worked really well for sanding the pistons.
Fecal fingers???
Thanks Taryl, I just sat down to supper and almost choked on my supper when I heard you say that. I almost launched it across my dining room!!
You're a funny guy! ( movie quite.)
Love your work videos awesome
You make the most entertaining videos especially those voices
TARYL ANOTHER GREAT VEDIO!!!!!
KEEP THEM COMING TO PITTSBURGH PA.
YOUR THE BEST!!!!
just think of all the extra oil that would have stayed in the transmission if you hadn't pulled the pump assembly off....just goes to show how thorough a cleaning these things need to get rid of all the contaminated/metal laden oil
This is a fun learning channel! :)
Thank You man i been having problems with my john deere LA130 hydro trans NOW I KNOW HOW TO REPAIR IT!!!!!!! Great video
This is a fun channel! Not like some of those other no fun channel's. Nice video!
I think these transmissions would benefit greatly from a external spin on filter. I can’t get over how dirty these transmissions get inside. Great video Taryl, thanks!
Theres no internal charge pump to force oil thru a spin on or external filter. Hence all the screens and magnets.
@@outerfroggy1 , time for a redesign.
Wow Terrell yeah I was really needing the information about these I understand man what a great detail video I'll do everything just like you showed thanks
It is fun to learn especially on your channel
Love that Craftsman snow plow at the end.
I found a "service kit" on fleabay for one of my john deere tough torques. It had filter, seals, and orings. Then tough torque told me to use 5w50 synthetic oil. Got her working again.
WoW...my exact same tractor. Been baby'n it and changing the fluid every season. Flat mow and also pull my JD 7P cart/trailer with light loads. Some say you can upgrade the K46 with K57 parts to make it more powerful. Just bought a GT275 that needs a hood....LOL. It has a K70B in it. Now that seems HD compared to the L120.
I am having fun learning on this fun learning channel
really appreciate the Tuff Torq transmission videos , allot of us have this transition and most are going to fail at some point , i hear after 300 hrs. they begin to act up 👍
Well that sucks, I’m at 235 hours…. I already changed the oil so hopefully that will by me some more time.
I got a LA135 and D125, got 1500hrs out of trans before it started slipping, never serviced either lol. And I tow a 350 litre spray trailer with them, tow a 6x4 trailer often with 200kg plus weight on it. I think their tough asf. I just rebuilt them thanks to Taryls videos

Hey Taryl dose "Not so Tuff-torque" sell Rebuilt or Exchange used transaxle's?
Question - I have the T40 trans. I have it all apart as you do. I have the pin in place as you do. I have small ball and I am not sure where that goes? Would you advise the location for it. The bearings are not missing a ball. I re -checked.
I try to keep the oil changed on them, even though they're a pain to remove to do it. It seems that using the 5w50 they recommend makes them work better than the 10w30 that most come factory filled with.
I used 5w50 mobil1 full synthetic. Mine seems to be happy. It’s really cold blooded in the cold though. If I just started the engine and it’s cold and at idle and let out the brake the oil in the pump can stall the right so it needs some extra rpm till it’s warm. This only happens when it’s freezing or below when the oil is extra thick.
I tapped a 1/4 plug in the bottom easy oil changes now
Very good video Best regards from Germany
That one is older. It has the steel wheel spacers on the axles. Newer uses plastic. I think the rear wheels being spaced and shimmed loose may contribute to the spider gear failure. The axle c-clip deal isn't select or shim fit and the axle and spiders have a bunch of movement normally that's probably aggravated if the wheels aren't shimmed right. Just a theory after having worked on two k46.
Thanks for the education. I normally do not go for the old act stupid hick comedy but you let it slip at times that you are a wise man that knows what he is doing. You are thinking about what you are working on so much that at times you sound like a shop class teacher with all the education. Anyway, thanks for your honest teaching. You are not just fooling around. I have an old JD LT155 that would get hot and barely move. A good internal cleaning and fresh 20W50 synthetic oil got it back to work.
What brand of oil extractor are you using?
Thank you, Taryl.
31:00 Some mower manufacturers like Toro instal the transmission rotated 180 degrees (so the short axle is on the right). I think this is why the thrust wedges can be installed two ways around to match.
