Awesome build plans. Vari drive with the 206, I did a similar build with my mower that I use to cut my grass and works great. I got 35 forward gears and 7 reverse gears on mine. You can never have enough gears and I use quite a few of them just to cut the grass. Very Happy Good luck on the build, here's my build thread on my mower.

Good work! I think you'll be the only guy on here that mows with his tractor after he's done building it.

lol!

I mow with Sodzilla.

BTW, you're doing a good job on your build.  The vari-drive is perfect for a build that mows and off-roads.

Your pan frame looks a little on the skimpy side there. Especially around the pivot for the front axle. Redline and AllisKidD21 both have done a lot of frame strengthening with bed frame angle iron to their mtds. This is why you see guys starting from scratch and building their own frames right from the start instead of going through all the trial and error it takes to beef up a pan frame.

Can’t remember what red used, but I know AK’s MTD is a pan frame. He beefed his up a bunch. You germans know how to engineer lol, just find spots that look easy to strengthen using angle and plate steel. Maybe use the deck that came with it as plate steel. Cut it up and make braces and reinforcements wherever you can.

Something else, with the age and use on that mower, the frame may already be fatigued and cracked. Those are the spots that are most stressed and need attention. Should be pretty easy to find. Cracks and paint chipping/warping are spots to look at, as well as around both axle mounts (front, rear)

First of all great job on everything. I saw how you notched out your tensioner and I'm like "okay fits really well around your transaxle", but then I saw your custom gas pedal and wow I was really impressed. Your pedal looks more elaborate to build. Double W Cross Ranch found a good video one time of a dual throttle setup. I think he had a bicycle brake cable that was attached to the governor with a lot of slack in it, so the normal throttle could still move back and forth, but when you pressed the pedal down it would take the slack out of the cable and operate like a normal foot throttle.

Looking nice! Lot of attention to the little details so far it seems, and that foot throttle look super slick! Always cool to have a gas pedal on a tractor that looks stock, haha. Great job!

The zip ties are factory? Wow, I thought those were metal from the factory and somebody had to replace them somewhere along the line, but I guess that's not the case.
