Re: TuffTorq K46 Repair Guide with Pictures
Like you, I started out planning on buying a similar parts kit from Derrick, but it was going to be close to $300 with shipping. Since I only paid $750 for my used L130 (with the busted K46) last summer, I simply couldn't justify that repair cost. I ended up buying just the fan, filter, vent & cap, oil drain bolts from Tuff Torq ($28 in parts + $16 S&H!) and bought the sealant and Castrol 5W50 synthetic from the local auto parts store. In hindsight, the oil drain bolts were a total waste of time and money since the best way to drain is to remove the K46 from the mower and turn it upside down anyhow.
If you have a few hours and elbow grease to spare, just re-sand the revolvers and center case by hand. Or take them to a machine shop. It will be much cheaper than buying new ones. I would still recommend buying a new filter, cap & vent from Tuff Torq. It's up to you to weigh time vs. money.

Re: TuffTorq K46 / John Deere L110 Transmission Repair Guide with Pictures
Did you verify that the pump and motor were spinning before you put the transaxle back on the mower? Did you top off with more oil after doing the air purge? I did my air purge on the shop bench by using a clamp to release the brake, and spinning the pulley by hand. I saw quite a lot of bubbbles in the oil as I was rotating the pulley and watching the axle move (about as slow as the minute hand on an analog clock).
When it's jacked up, does the differential work, i.e. spin one wheel, and the other wheel spins the opposite direction? This would check that the differential and axles aren't binding.

I noticed the the bottom one closest to the pulley spinning whenever i spin the pulley but never seen the other one move yet..Yes whenever I turn one wheel the other goes the opposite way is that what is supposed to happen ?? The oil didn't drop any at all

Re: TuffTorq K46 Repair Guide with Pictures
Lots of green grass, What advise can you give on John Deere L110 when the transmission is slipping.
Have replaced belts and no help.
Thanks

Re: TuffTorq K46 Repair Guide with Pictures
Just wanted to say that I could not find any 5/50 Synthetic so I used 5/30 Synthetic. I have had no problems at all.
As others have mentioned in other threads found on the net:
1.) Originally came with 10/30 Dino oil so Synthetic is much better.
2.) Splitting hairs between 5/50 and 5/30.
3.) Thousands out there, many without problems at over 1000 hours.
4.) Much of the problems are due to clogged cooling fins on the upper side of Transaxle, thus causing over heating of oil..... Keep top side of Transaxle clean so the cooling fan can do it's work.
Just my 2 cents.Last edited by Dapped; 05-17-2013 at 11:44 AM.
