Same here I’m just looking at the princess auto catalog today n I can’t seem to figure out the sprockets n in the pictures they don’t look like the ones in the video at all can PEi let us please know like all part numbers etc or are the sprockets need to be welded on to the weld-on hubs bc there’s different like are you PEi guy in video ment to say weld on hub and weld on sprockets or do they already come as a one peace ya know what I’m saying here also what does a thrush washer look like ???? 2:03

Nvm about the sprockets I just figured that out after I said that comment now I’m only stuck on thrust washers so the sprockets n weld on hubs do need to be welded together first other then the thrust washers I have everything else figured out also how many of the thrust washers we need ??

Did you change the input shaft from a splined to a keyed shaft? I am trying to figure out how to do that right now. Thanks.

Everything I've seen about these trans, everyone says they are junk, and on all the other builds, they always say get away from the chain it is a bomb waiting to go off. I have 2 of these I was going to use, but now am very curious. How did this hold up? And what would you do differently?

Have you ever done a similar thing to a peerless 5 speed unit? It looks like you could completely remove the entire reduction gear assembly and run a keyed shaft in the rear and a sprocket and chain from the gearbox output to the rear axle. It’s something I want to try out, I don’t like overdriving the crap out of everything to go faster, it just ruins the transaxle

My mtd lawn tractor has the same gearbox. I took of the big rear pulley stuck to the gearbox and the pulley and shaft have a whole different pattern. It has 36 teeth with a converter with a six stat slot where the pulley goes. I cant find any other pulleys with the 6 star slot. I need a keyway shaft. Your shaft was as mine in the start of the video but in the end it was different. Can you tell me what you do with the shaft to make keyway pulleys fit

Sorry for the strange question, but... Is there a hydrostatic riding lawnmower transmission that is 13 inches long? Or wide? Or is there a transmission that I can cut down to 13 inches? What I am trying to do is build a galloping goose railcar. 5 inch scale 15 inch wide track. Im using a Briggs and stratton 17 hp motor and a riding lawnmower frame. I want to try to use the transmission to have forward and reverse.

that brass input gear is not going to be too happy without OIL IN IT... STP OIL TREATMENT up to the bottom of the axle shafts with some gear oil in it too. the gear oil will leak out of the axle shafts.... maybe not so much with the axle bearings that need to be regreased with REAL GREEEN/ RED GREASE so they last forever as the packing greease is the cheapest grease they can get away with putting in there to keep them from rusting on the boat from china. pry out the seals and pack in real US GREEN/RED grease and put seals back in. a good coating of green red grease on gears wud help too i suppose along with the STP oil treatment... liquid grease.

buy the parts off of e bay and figure it out. worst thing is dragging all the nasty old grease out of it.... lots of rags and a cardboard box to throw the rags into. i wud put STP oil treatment in the gearbox before final sealing up. up to the bottom of the axle shafts so the oil doesnt leak out of the axle shafts.... STP OIL TREATMENT is generally tooooo thick to leak out of axle shaft. oil /grease the input needle bearings too on the input shaft tower as they need oil/grease. 2 of the 1/2" collars with allen head set screws blue thread lock on final assembly on those grub screws when u get it all together finally. the part # he gave for the bearings is ... are 12mm or 1/2"... axles are 3/4" or 1" on the HD models. so need 3/4" bearings for the axle if have 3/4" axle shafts... or 25mm/ 1" bearings for 1" axle shafts. they are made in the US so the axles should be US standards????

I have a 719 transaxle currently ordering my parts soon. I have a question, will I need to remove the input shaft from the case or get a new one? Also what are the size and length on your keyed shafts, viewing bmicarts they vary to 4.5 - 16) 3/4 with cut to length. Thanks for the video!
@peilawntractorracingclubin70533 жыл бұрын
Input shafts and gears vary somewhat from model to model. Although all are 5/8 input shafts, some are machined down to 1/2" on each end. I prefer the full size shaft as the keyway in the 1/2" is very small and likely to fail with any amount of power. I use 3ft keyed axle shaft from Princess Auto. The 719 will not have provisions for ball bearings.
