Got the trans drilled and tapped, got it in the tractor, and now I am getting my shifter to work and getting the belts figured out.

anyone have a good place to get shift keys? I need them, mine are shot. it would run and drive now but the shift keys are holding me up. I am trading zsmachines for a different set of fenders and some more stuff.

Well I decided this will be my build off machine, and I took the mst and opposed out, and I am going to rebuild it with a onan opposed and peerless 1200 tranny, and it will need completely redone to work with the horizontal shaft stuff. It will be a utility/puller, with a top speed of 10 mph. I am also redoing the steering since my craftsman stuff stripped out. Plans are 26" ag tires on the rear, and those 20" in the picture. I will essentially be making a gt out of an lt. so this is all I have now:

the motor is just sitting there, not mounted yet, obviously.

Oh my goodness for myself. This thing is about to get a hole lot better. Probable what I'd do if I had to make another off-roader. Can stick some nasty tires on there.
