Tuff Torq Gearbox Oil Leak Repair | K61 Hydrostatic John Deere

[@pauldouglass2897]

Thanks for the video...My gearbox started leaking last year. I could not isolate exactly where the leak was. After watching your video I though why not try what you show here. What have I got o lose? The hardest part of the whole procedure is cleaning the old gasket material off.... Got it back together, mowed my lawn, and so far no leaks! Maybe I can get one more year of mowing ouit of my old JD. so I say thank-you

Gr8 job i could watch these for hours

[@DoRC]

A suggestion. After you apply the sealant smear it with your finger. You can make a nice even layer around the sealing surface and it's easy to see if you're using too much or not enough. I'm a mechanic and I've actually had multiple experiences where excess sealant got where it shouldn't have been and caused a failure (usually to oil or coolant passages..)

The inside of that gearbox looks great

[@RobertoSantiagoRodriguez]

Great video, thanks so much! Greetings from Indianapolis, Indiana, USA!

[@bobbythegamer0726]

That is a nice John I have to say it looks better than my massey

[@M70ACARRY]

Did you clean the filter and magnets?

[@toxrozzx8158]

*GREAT TIP* You could use a vaccum cleaner while removing the gasket, to minimize gasket falling into the gearbox :-)

The John Deere mechanic told me that the box needed 10W30 oil but, I've seen some channels that changed it for 20W50. I wonder if its a good idea IF you ONLY use your machine in summer.

[@granjerolunabrillo1487]

Another great job, you got any idea what your winter project is going to be this year?

[@szym86]

I have the same transmission. It loses power after a few minutes of driving. I just opened the lid. Where could be the potential cause?

[@shanepipkin4041]

I have a jd 930m it's has a small leak on the right side I changes the oil ring on the filter cap didn't help looks like it was coming from their or around the bottom. you you have any suggestions on may to find where it's leaking? I just keep a eye on it its not bad but would like to know

Did this repair today on a tuff torq, but in some ones driveway haha much more difficult, traveling mechanic. Awesome video, but should you really be ratchetting the torque wrench like that?

[@jacobmundy576]

Is this your mower

[@senecadaze]

Anyone know what Axle seals to buy for the K61

[@kerrydixon3120]

Is that the mower that set on fire

[@f.n.s4064]

Hi Daggerwin, is that your own workshop that you are taking the gearbox out in?

[@davidfitzsimons7420]

dagger could you do a workshop tour?

[@danieswart5070]

David Fitzsimons he already did a workshop tour.

[@Varinki]

I thought that thumbnail looked familiar. I was looking at the inside of a Tuff Torq K46 today.

[@tommyreilly1766]

Keep up good vids

[@sergeantsovula5811]

Dagg is this a new restoration project ?

[@joel8340.]

Was this a diesel mower as I'm looking for a new diesel mower that is cheap?

[@boerbrabant]

Joel Gennard diesel is more expencive if you mow one time a week but lasts fors years bur if you are mowing 40 hours a week diesel is cheaper or you must have a big garden that takes 3 4 hours of mowing diesel is ok

[@matthewsmyth2163]

Would look like to me that dagger may be doing a few repairs for other people's lawn mowers. Good move if true.

[@jpw1490]

Is it your mower

[@krispypepper1898]

how long does it take for sealent to dry?

[@Daggerwin]

Sometimes only 1 hour however I ALWAYS leave these gearboxes 24hrs before filling with oil

[@averybryant]

Great video dagger! Quick question, what did you torque the bolts to when reassembling the gearbox?

[@Ajt1994]

Gas and Oil 17/18 ft lbs

[@bunnywarren]
