Very Happy WE HAVE THE SAME MOWER that 4360 transaxle is very strong and the truth on how i got sarge was my dad was cutting grass one day and the engine had already started knocking and my dad went to cut grass on the other side of the yard and i had a power cord layed out so he shut off the blades and as soon as he reengaged them the deck drive pulley went flying off lol so he just gave it to me Very Happy and i need to get some tires to lol my stock turf's are crap

I have extended the spindles and put the 18x10x8s on the front and have my 22s on the rear. Which gives me 11.5" of clearance in the front and 9.5 at the rear. Made belt retainers and a shift linkage. When I went for a test ride it was insane it will pop wheelies in 1st, 2nd,3rd and will stall if I try to start it in 4th or 5th gear.

My hydro most likely goes 10mph by just adjusting the linkage and opening the valve up to let more pressure go through it.

Today I finally got back to working on the mower.  I have a 1-1 gear ratio and i do about 15-18 in 5th gear and added a rear mount for the trans-axle.
It also flexes good.

Ariens yes red one is a poulan..... No I did not lock the axle.

I have some ideas for this and it will become more of a utv. It will get a generator from a car alternator, welder from another alternator and maybe even an air compressor from a car's ac unit.

So i road the mower for the first time in a long time today and some stuff needs to be changed. The belt needs to be tightened up and I might lock the trans-axle, but before that I need to fix the steering. It broke right when I put it in my shed to put it up. At least it didn't happen on the trail
