| Naw, the 600's are more of a lawn tractor transaxle, just a little more heavy duty. Vertical shaft 3-speed, I think the transaxles in the Craftsman GT's where horizontal input and had 3-speeds with two ranges. Either way, they sure didn't put them in 90's MTD's hahaha! |

Either way, they sure didn't put them in 90's MTD's hahaha! The Craftsman GTs varied a lot. The 633 was in a lot of them. Some had hydros, 820s, etc... _______________________________________________ |

| its those craftsmans that have the twisted belt. the gt's that is. thats what makes them more difficult to use. because i know a lot of them have the 3 speed high and low transmissions that the sears suburbans have, and those have a horizontal input shaft. The mower has a vertical shaft engine, the kohler magnum opposed. they are good tractors for general work, but ive heard they are a pain in the a$$ to change the belt on. |

| Yeah I wouldn't want a twisted belt on any of my tractors, seems like another thing to go wrong. Oh well, luckily since the 600 series are vertical input I won't have to twist the belt on the 'ol MTD. _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Allis B-110, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655 & 953 - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - |

| But anyway, I still plan on removing the engine and doing some frame bracing this weekend. I'm gonna try and get lots of pictures so stay tuned! _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Allis B-110, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655 & 953 - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - |

| Well I just pulled the 'ol Briggs out, I didn't bother taking any pictures cuz it's too dark out. Luckily it's not the first time I've done it, so it didn't take long. I think the oil leak is due to the dipstick tube seal being broke lose, which won't be hard to fix, but tomorrow I hope to do some frame bracing stuff and I'll definitely take some pictures of that! _______________________________________________ "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Allis B-110, 710 & 716 - Wheel Horse 655 & 953 - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic & 1668 - Cub 106 & 124 - Ford LGT 125 & 145 - |

| Looking really good! I like the foot throttle, you gotta take plenty of pics of the dual throttle setup because I'm interested in doing something like that. |

| Looking good buddy! are you worried about catching anything on the corners of the angle iron or are they high enough up? |

| Thanks man! I suppose it is a possibility, but they are just about flush with the frame.

| Maybe trim up the corners on the outer ones so you don't catch your hand or shin while working/walking around it. The inside ones are probably fine. |

| Nice. I see quite a bit of oil on the frame there, must have got a big oil leak. |
