I think we ended up with a little more than 10 thousandths by stacking a home made with 2 paper thin gaskets. The gears seem to be tight but free moving. The gears looked surprising good for being found dry.Good Morning scootr,
Glad its working out for you ! Looks awfully dry out there, maybe you should bring it up to Vermont and see how it works on our really lush and green fields !
Anyway good to see you managed to fix all the problems with this unit ! Wondering how thick of a shim or gasket you had to use to get the proper backlash on your gears ?
Now that its working properly, you can paint it up pretty to match your tractor !
The end of summer here is always brown. Can't wait for the next growing season of weeds.
Can't believe I said that. lol
I need to get all the oil off the deck now for paint. Will start cleaning it up today. This really is a great old machine.
