Tech Tips – Using Tuff Torq Repair Kits

Tips for Tuff Torq Repair Kits

(K46, K57, K574, T40 MODELS)

The Tuff Torq service team has put together this summary outline procedure for using our Tuff Torq repair kits to service your drive system. These are just tips and should not be considered a complete repair guide for every issue you might have. All repairs and maintenance of our drive systems should be performed by a professional service technician. If you have any questions or need specific help for your issue, feel free to contact our service team at (866) 572-3441 or through the website by clicking here.

Receive the correct repair kit

  • First, clean the outside debris from the unit.
  • Be sure to locate the proper serial number of the TTC unit (Located on the barcode sticker).

Removing unit for repair

  • After you have received your parts, please inspect the parts. Note the mating surfaces must be smooth and clean.
  • Repair Kits generally include the center case, pump cylinder block, motor cylinder block, filter, o-rings, seals, and sealant. When repairing your unit, it may not be necessary to use all o-rings, and seals.
  • Drain the oil from the unit. (DO NOT reuse the oil) Remove the flat rubber seal cap located under the fan to drain the oil. No need to remove the vent valve.
  • Place the unit on your workbench with the fan facing down.

Opening unit an performing repair

    • Remove the case bolts and remove the lower housing.
    • Scrape the sealant from both the upper and lower cover. Be careful not to damage the sealing surface while scraping the housings. (Remove all sealant completely)
    • Now is the time to use the drawing and parts list from TTC’s website to identify everything inside the unit www.tufftorqservices.com.
    • Clean and flush the unit. Improper cleaning of the unit could result in a premature failure or void the parts warranty. You can clean internal parts with standard brake cleaner.
    • If you choose to inspect any parts make sure these parts are placed back into the proper orientation. (Ex. If you remove a bearing or a plate make sure that it is placed back into the proper position. Plate with smaller ID (INSIDE DIAMETER) should contact Pistons.) The notes are listed on most drawings so be sure to follow these tips properly. (see Fig#1)

  • Note the original position of the Motor Housing. (see Fig.#2)

  • Once you are ready to install the parts be sure to coat the mating surfaces with oil. This will help lubricate the contact surfaces.

Re-assembly of unit

  • Make sure to re-install the bypass pin and washer from the original center case and motor cylinder block. You can use a light amount of automotive grease or Vaseline to keep these two parts in position while putting the parts back in.
  • If the unit has IDS valves, be sure to note the correct position of the ball or the filter compared to the drawing (see Fig.#3).

  • New center cases will have pilot holes for the IDS system. See figure 4 to understand the difference between IDS and non-IDS units. The non-IDS unit will not have finished machining at the pilot holes. This is simply in the case mold design of the new center-case and does not impact the performance of your unit.

  • New style magnet holder and two magnets (see Fig.#5 on back) for proper orientation.
Using Tuff Torq repair kits - Figure 5

  • After re-installation, check to see if everything will rotate freely.
  • It is critical that the operator maintains proper oil levels at all times.
    • Maintain oil level  at 20~25 mm (3/4”~1”) below the lip of (black cap) the filling port.
    • Always check oil level when the oil temperature is at room temperature (20C or 68 F).
    • When replacing oil in your unit, Tuff Torq Corporation recommends using Tuff Torq Tuff Tech™ hydrostatic drive fluid when rebuilding Tuff Torq transaxles. (DO NOT use ATF Automatic Trans Fluid)

    I have a 3/4 year old K46 fitted to a Honda HF241792019/2020. The IDS valves have only springs and NO filters or balls . Can you confirm if this is normal . The label is missing on the unit .

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Yes, this is normal. After exhaustive testing it was calculated that the IDS works the same whether it has filters or not. So no more filters were needed.

    I have a 1994 John Deere lx188. I do not have a bar code. the number below the tuff torque logo is 018042. I want to order a rebuild kit
    for this K61 transaxle.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      If you look up on top of the transaxle where the oil fill is there should be a number stamped into the case. This number is critical to getting the correct kit and if you get me that serial number and I can tell you the part number of the repair kit.

  • Paul says:

    Can the Tuff Torq, Differential Lock Kit, 1A632087360 be installed on any k46.? Where can I find installation instructions?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Kit 1A632087360 cannot be installed in a K46. It is meant for the K66 & K62 which are much bigger units. The only way for a K46 to have a locking differential is to install the ETC gear in the unit. Now, if you have an older K46 It is possible that the ETC gear will not fit as the lowercase was changed at some point to allow for the bigger ETC gear to be installed. If you share the Serial number of your K46 I will happily look to see if the gear will possibly fit in your unit. The part number for the ETC gear is 1A646031710.

  • Wayne Curtis says:

    Where may I be able to acquire a seal kit for my K57R Sears garden tractor and what is the part number for this part. I am losing power when I push the forward and reverse peddles and need to replace the filter. I understand that this kit has everything I may need to do the job. I live in Cambridge, Ontario, Canada. Thanks

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Below is the Canadian Distributor’s contact information. Also, I would check a few things before trying to change the filter. You would need to inspect the input shaft and pulley for wear as they could be slipping when stressed. Another check would be to change the oil in the transaxle. Use a 10W-30 conventional or Synthetic motor oil to see if the loss of power abates. It holds around 2.3 liters.

  • Leon says:

    Hello ,
    I have a John Deere 14.5/38 Sabre riding mower. It has a Tuff Torque 51a . The right rear axle seal was leaking. I obtained the part and found the time to replace it. It seems to me that the axle has to much up/down play causing the seal to leak. In my search it seems that the 51 doesn’t have an Axle bearing/ bushing.? Can you provide any insight with this?
    Thank you

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      There is a bushing that is pressed into the case for the axle. It is #79 on the drawing. I see that it is not listed on the parts list but the part number is 1A646034500 and you can order right off the website tufftorq.ordertree.com

  • Edwin Shelton says:

    Purchased rebuild kit for k58. Wanting to know the purpose of the bypass pin and what keeps the pin from fall thru the case?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The bypass pin releases the pressure internal to the center case so that the unit can be pushed. The pin is kept in the center case by the bypass lever and the motor cylinder block’s washer. If you are trying to install the new center case and the pin is falling out try pushing some grease or petroleum jelly into the hole to hold the pin in place.

  • Mi tractor es L120 transmission k46ac donde puedo conseguir los resortes que van en el center casé y los balines.

  • My mower was pushed up in garage about 5ft during the winter without pulling relief valve. The mower will not move under engine power. This is a new transmission bought last summer. What could have gone wrong?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      If you pushed it without releasing the bypass then what you essentially did is forced the axles and gears to turn the hydraulics backward using the motor cylinder block to pump oil through the center case and into the pump. If you are experiencing issues then it could be you damaged the hydraulic parts. However, I would check the linkages, the brake, the belt, and the oil level to make sure everything external is ok and the oil is to the proper level.

  • Phillip williams says:

    Which kit for the jd la175 and how much is it.thank you.

  • Ron Mason says:

    I want to be clear about the fill port on my JD 125 automatic lawn tractor T 40 transmission. Is it the metal cap forward or the rubber cap at the rear? Also, low vis or high vis oil?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The easiest way to fill is in the front cap under the fan and pulley stack up. the rear vent valve can be used but it is not ideal. The oil John Deere recommends is J20C which is their high viscosity hydraulic oil.

  • Chris Layton says:

    I wanted to see about getting a rebuild kit for my transaxle. It’s a k46., It’s on an ’05 John Deere L120 GXL120A082485.
    The bar code sticker that y’all put on the axle, the numbers aren’t readable except maybe the first four or five. I can send a picture of what’s there if you scan the bars maybe. I pulled it out a couple of years ago and refilled it with synthetic 5w50 I think it was and it helped the slipping some. I did it again this past spring and it helped again but it’s beyond that now. How can I identify for sure which model it is? It’s screeching bad and reverse will work a little. Will the rebuild kit get me another 2-3 years out of it? It’s only got about 500 hours on it.

  • Mark says:

    When I take out the ETC Diff Comp I can turn it by hand in both directions and both sides when I place the axle in it. Does this mean the unit is worn?

  • Louis Mainville says:

    Hello, I have K46-1A6460-84300#3 on the housing of my transmission. I need a rebuilt kit. What do I need and do you have the number of the required kit for this repair.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      the casting part number is not a unique identifier for your transaxle. I would need the serial number of the transaxle itself which is found on a bar code sticker on the case of the unit close to one of the axles and normally you can see it from the rear of the tractor.

  • Matteo says:

    Thanks greedtings

  • Doug Nieuwkoop says:

    Tuff Torq Rep., I have a John Deere LA135. The transmission is having issues going up hills after it gets hot, about 15 mins. of running, but it works great on flat land. Every two years I have removed the transmission and changed the oil in the off season using Mobil One Full Synthetic 15W-50 oil each time. After a lot of online research, I understand going up hills will generate a lot of heat on the transmission, resulting in this issue that I’m having. I believe that my best option, because I do like my John Deere, is to rebuild the transmission with the “Tuff Torq repair kit”. The following are the numbers on the transmission:
    768T202411 – 40J-0613329 JDPP PH MIA10910

    I live in Knoxville, TN and go the Johnson City, TN often to see family. So my question are:

    > What is the rebuilt kit part number that I need?
    > What is the cost of the kit?
    > What is my best and lowest cost in shipping or if available can I pick it up?
    > Would using Amazon prime be a good way to go about ordering it?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      1. The part number for the repair kit for that transaxle with that serial number is 1A646098280
      2. The price is $458.15
      3. Shipping is what they charge at the shipping facility and it looks like shipping is $24.45 for standard shipping. If you need it faster you should call 866.572.3441 and order it through the CSR. do not forget sales tax and that comes to $47.05 but I did not check for your zip code.
      4. We do not have a storefront through Amazon though there are several authorized dealers that do. the biggest issue with an order through there is that they oftentimes get things wrong because they mistakenly think all K46’s or T40s are the same. They are not so what works for one will not work for another.

      However, our shipping facility is no longer in Morristown so you can not pick it up at the factory as we did in times past.

    Is there a rebuild kit for this model?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      I believe you have a K62G installed in your tractor. I know it is difficult to read the barcode stickers being they are small and get covered in debris. Also, there is a shock absorber off the back of the unit that could be the issue. Its job is to allow the tractor to ease into “gear” so you do not take off like a shot. When they go bad the part will restrict the control lever movement which could make it seem like the whole transaxle is not working. The easiest way to check this take it off of the shock absorber from the control lever and get the tractor good and warm and see if reverse still works well. If it does, replace the shock absorber. Do be careful, though, when the shock absorber is not hooked up as the unit will move rather quickly.

      You can get help from our UK Distributor which I will list below.

    i purchased an axle kit for the k46. Replaced the broken axle first (the longer one) installing the axle clip and the thicker spacer . Same for the shorter shaft except i can”t get the thicker spacer clip in. Any suggestions

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      You should see on the short side that the final gear is supposed to have a recess. If that recess is on the side of the long axle then you will have issues with the short axle fitting.

    2. The oil filter inside the Hydrostatic Transaxle. Diam 70mm x hight 25mm
    3. The drive belt between the Kohler motor and the Hydrostatic Transaxle
    I do not know the length of the drive belt, but I can take the old one away and measure it if needed.
    4. The sealing compound to seal between the upper and the lower part of Hydrostatic Transaxle.
    The Toro representatives in Sweden, do not have any parts for that old machine.
    They asked me to contact the representatives in the USA
    I found this page and hope to find the parts missing.

    Do you have a complete price list with photos and numbers of all spare parts?
    Please send it to my email:
    kontorsstolen@hotmail.com

    Have a nice day!
    ….and Take Care!

  • Arne Nilsen says:

    Hi! I have a K574 transmission with 4WD. My problem is that only the front wheels drive are working. Have opened the transmission without finding any failure inside. Have replaced the filter and the bearings before assembling it together again. Didn’t make any difference. Do you have any ideas of what the problem might be?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      you may need to inspect the exterior of the rear transmission looking for debris or anything that would hinder the control lever from moving. If that is good then I am afraid you need to open the rear transmission to see what the center case faces look like. if there are scratches and scoring it may need to be rebuilt.

  • Jesse Livingston says:

    I have a K71A hydro that will not move and makes a hi pitched noise. What are common failure modes for K71As and is there a rebuild kit or manufactured unit I can purchase?Thanks, Jess P.S JD GX 325 I’ve had it 18 yrs and never serviced the transaxle.. (insert sad face emoji here).

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      You will want to check the fan and pulley and make sure that the pulley is actually turning the input shaft. If it is try taking off the shock absorber from the control lever and see if that helps. if neither of those work then you may want to check axle keys in the hubs and then the oil level.

    Leaking seals KT574

  • Steve Fredmonsky says:

    I have a LGT 2654 husqvarna with a K57 trans axle oil leaked out during last mowing. Didn’t realize it was the transaxle at that time. Now, mower will go forward but is very unhappy about going in reverse. Sometimes will not go in reverse at all. I don’t exactly know where the leak is located. Is this a common problem? What can I do to repair/fix. Is it shot?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      to find the leak you may need to take out the transmission from the tractor and clean it up well. then let it sit overnight and see where it is dripping from. Most leaks are repairable it is just a matter of knowing where it is leaking from.

    I bought a New Holland lawn mower (by Tramontina), which uses Tuff Torq transmission 7a646084510. This transmission was opened and reassembled by another mechanic, and it is operating in reverse, I move to go forward and it goes backwards fast, I move to go backwards and it goes forward slowly.

  • Curt Gobbell says:

    I have a JD L130A mfg in 2002, model GXL130A013939, but the transmission label is missing.

    How do I know which model trans I have?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      the easiest thing to do is contact a John Deere dealer armed with the serial number of the tractor and they can look up the transmission in that unit. At the very least they can give you the part number of the transmission and then we will know which transaxle you have.

  • Jared Nourse says:

    I need a seal kit but the barcode sticker is missing. Is there another way to figure out what kit I need? This Tuff Torq is out of a 2001 JD GT235, other websites state it is a K71 but I want to make sure I do this correctly.

  • Matt Clark says:

    I have this trans below 7A646024390 Ser. 46ac0246609 JDPP P/NAM131580

    When I step on the gas and I am going forward it appears at some points to make a clunk as the clock happens forward movement momentarily stops and then goes again. It seems to only happen when the transmission is stressed a bit by either going around the corner or if the front tire it’s a hole during a turn. Would you have any idea when I might need?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Yes, it could be the diff gears are worn enough that under stress they are not meshing correctly. I would also want to check the keys in the hubs that could be an issue as well.

      • Matt Clark says:

        I pulled the transmission because is stopped moving the mower. 4 small gears are completely wrecked and they came apart in chunks. These chunks have scratches the large ring gear and the smaller one that the wet brake rides on. There are no chunks out of those gears though. Would they be ok. They don’t look to be deep scratched. Wish I could post a pic. Anyways if I change all those years do I have to worry about the fine metal particles have they’ve been run through the hydraulic pump or with the filter have stopped them? Can you ship these parts to me in Canada?

        • ggraham says:

          Hello,
          Because the Tuff Torq transmssions keep the gears separate from the hydro area you are more than likely OK with the hydraulic parts. I would definitely give it a thorough cleaning with a brake cleaner to make sure you have everything out but the hydraulic parts should be fine.

          • Matt Clark says:

            Thank you. Is this part number 1A646088211 the replacement for this part number 187Q1625221? Will it work on K46?

          • ggraham says:

            Hello,
            It is not the replacement for that part number. It may work on a K46 because it is the filter for the K57 with has a similar configuration. The part number 187Q1625221 is the correct part number for the K46.

          • Matt Clark says:

            Where is the Canadian supplier that I can buy these parts from? Since you won’t ship to Canada

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The oil viscosity is probably shot and the best way to see if that is your issue is to change the oil. You can order our Tuff Tech oil from your distributor, Southern Machinery. The part number is 187Q0899000 and it comes in a 3-litre bottle which is more than enough to fill your transmission.

  • Hello
    I have a Tuff Torq axle model 7A646084130 , s# 46BC0027759 in my JD X300 Mower. The input shaft pulley has stripped out. I was going to replace the pulley, shaft and seal. What are the part numbers for these parts?

  • Michael J Wisniewski says:

    I have a Husqvarna model HQYT48DXLS lawn tractor with a K46 (model 960430226) transmission with S/N 46CR0197848 that is slipping when going up hill. What modification would be required to change the present K46 transmission to the K66? Would you furnish mounting info to determine if this is a possibility.
    Would it be possible to purchase the K66 transmission thru you if modification is feasible?
    The present mower is only 3.5 years old so any help will be appreciated.
    Thank you, Mike

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The K66 has a larger footprint than the K46 so the bolt in pattern is quite different. Also, there is the issue of getting the pulley height correct can be a challenge not to mention the hubs you would need to change because the K66 has one-inch axles. Then there are internal considerations such as gear ratio and logic plays a role as well. Logic determines the direction the transmission will go when the control lever moves to the front of the transmission because it can go forward or reverse depending on the logic. However, if you are extremely handy you can purchase K66s right from our website https://tufftorq.ordertree.com/.

        Thank you very much. Yes, its the right one.
        I already have the chargepumpkit for Auxports.

        But still there is a Problem. Let me try to describe the issues:

        -With activated Bypass, the 4WD Axel is turning when you push the backward pedal.
        Pushing the forward pedal, nothing happens (as it should becouse Bypass lever is enabled. I think it doesnt act like this when it was new).
        -On the Auxport, with new pumpcasekit and gears.. there is hardly any flow or pressure building up
        (steering is not as easy as it should, the orbitrol was refurbished lately but problem not fixed)
        -you have valve sound coming from the transmission(RrrrRrrrRrrRrrr), but when you move the steering wheel a little bit it might dissapear and come back
        -Traktor drives fine, but only forward! When you steer to much, it might loose power and acts like there is air insinde
        -When you try going backwards, sometimes you can do only 1 meter, sometimes itl do 10 meters backwards.. but if you steer going backwards it will become a rough whinig and ratteling. You have to go forward again and after 1 meter or so its completly fine again and quite. The transmission has power, going a steep hill upward is not a problem(but dont steer to much)

        Maybe you have any suggestions, maybe a valve in the Mainpumphousing?

        Cheers from Germany

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      You would need to check the axle seal area and make sure it is a K61 and not a K60. If the upper case has the entire axle seal area in it as opposed to the axle seal area being split between the upper case and the lower case. then you have a K61 but if the axle seal area is split between the two cases that unit is a K60 and you would need to split the case to change the axle seal. If it is a K61 you can remove the axle seal without splitting the case.

    on my deere 46A AM130747
    What would be the part # for k57 upgrade kit. I read the charge pump increases durability. I want to upgrade center case / pump shaft/ charge pump…
    I gave my trans to a repair shop, and he gave it back to me in a basket, took me a while too figure out what was missing as I put it together.
    I noticed in pics after reinstalling I did not see or remember installing spring #1A646099070 under pump. Would trans still work w/o spring? I resurfaced center pump and new motor & pump.
    it works but trans looses some power when hot. so I want to replace center case with charge pump next time i pull apart.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      There is not an upgrade to the K57 from a K46. it used to be that an engineer at Tuff Torq had figured it out and kept up with parts changes and knowe which ones work with which transmission. However several years ago he retired and no one has taken up the mantel so it is not supported any longer.

  • John Krebs says:

    What is the repair kit # for a 768T2024011 trans axle transmission

  • Dennis Henley says:

    I have a John Deere L118 maybe 2004, with Tuff Torq 7A646024380 SN 46V-0278552
    iv’e taken it out because it was getting weak pulling up inclines, especially when hot. What are my options as to rebuilding this unit, kits or any upgrades? and estimate for cost of options. This unit has never been worked on as I have owned it since new and I will be doing the work myself . Thanks for your advice

  • R.Buxton says:

    I have a K51B.can I replace the bypass shaft seal ( o-ring ) from the top without disassembly of the unit.so meaning when I remove the pin and lever will the shaft fall into the gear case?

    • ggraham says:

      This really depends on the serial number brake of the transmission. Early versions have a lever that is not removable. If it is a later version then, yes you can remove the lever. The shaft is spring-loaded and will sink into the transmission but not all the way inside. You should be able to remove the O-rings with a pick and clean the area well to ensure that the new o-rings will seal off the transmission. Once installed use a small metal ruler to hold the shaft in the up position so you can put the lever on the shaft and start the roll pin. Make sure not to note the position of the lever so you get it installed correctly and not turn the shaft inside the transmission.

    I have a 7A646084020. SN57R0019816. HOP pn 437814. I can go forward and back wards at low speed but when I try to go faster it lurches and makes a loud clicking noise, I think we overloaded the pull behind trailer and broke some thing,,,do you have a rebuild kit for this unit, thank you in advance

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      I would check the mountings on the frame for the transmission. It sounds like the transmission is not “locked” into place and is “flexing”. Probably just enough that the belt is not coming off. Husqvarna has a kit to fix this and you should contact them if that is what is going on.

  • Morgan Jenkins says:

    Hi, I have a K574 (787Q0323030 S/N 574C-003694) & HFWD when warm it is very slow going forward and will not go up an incline, strangely in reverse it is fine. I suspect it needs a rebuild but not sure because it’s okay going in reverse. Can you advise?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The Hydrostatic transmission can start to act strange when there is damaged hydraulic parts. It can work fine in forward and have issues in reverse and vice versa. First I would check to see if the transmission has a shock absorber attached to the control lever. Sometimes the OEM will add those to the transmission and I would check for that. When the shock absorber goes bad it does not allow the control lever to move its whole arc and that will slow the transmission down because it is not building enough oil pressure to overcome the incline and/or the weight of the tractor.

  • D Thomas says:

    I have a tuff Torq 7681202401 which has just started to have trouble driving. I notice the rubber cap under the fan is leaking (Perished). First thoughts were to replace the cap and the oil. S/N 40J-0833205. Having trouble finding a replacement cap. Could you please advise.. ? Thanks.

  • John LaRese says:

  • John Williams says:

    K46 Rebuild Kit

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The repair kit is model specific and sometimes even serial number specific depending on the model. So, I would need the serial number of the unit to get you the correct repair kit.

  • Jim Socha says:

    I have a K46 in a 2013 John Deere with 140 hours on it that has broken springs under three of the 5 pistons. I took a fourth spring in my fingers and it snapped like a pretzel would if you tried to bend it. There is no visible scoring or discoloration that would indicate overheating and makes me wonder if there was a bad batch of springs from your supplier. How do I order all 10 replacement springs and what are their p/ns? My axle info is Model: 768T2024011 S/N: 40J-1320433

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      I am sorry but the springs are not sold separately. We receive the cylinder blocks complete. Also, the cylinder blocks are locked into the repair kit and are not able to be purchased outside of that kit.

  • Bob says:

    I have a John Deere Lt160 with a Tuff Torq K46C Serial # 46C-0077400 Transmission with 2000 hours on it. I all of a sudden lost all drive. The belt and pulley on top of the transmission are good. It makes no noise and you can push the tractor freely like you have disengaged the transmission. Also the pedals feel soft.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      I would check the linkages first. make sure they are working properly and not bound, bent or broken. Also, check for debris on the transmission not allowing the linkage or the control lever to move properly.

  • Dave says:

    Hello I just got a riding mower with a 46BA hydrostatic, the plunger in the back to roll freely was in the locked position, once i got it home I unlocked the plunger to roll freely, after I started the mower, I engaged the plunger the mower did not move, took the unit off drained fluid, was not full, took the cover off, didn’t find anything broken or out of place! I seems the plunger or mechanism to to lock the wheels from free roll may be the problem.
    I can’t find any references or picks to show that part!

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      To help with parts I need the serial number of that transmission because that series is serial number specific for parts. The serial number is on a bar code sticker that is on the case of the transmission close to one of the axles.

  • joseph says:

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Yes, there is! you can contact a John Deere dealer with the serial number of the tractor and at the very least they can give you the part number for the transmission if not the serial number of the transmission.

  • Todd Harris says:

    trans not operational; removed from mower, gears look great, what do I look for that rendered this unit to be non-operational??

    • ggraham says:

      Well, if it is a hydraulic issue check the faces of the part held in with three bolts called the center case. look at the area on it between the kidney ports. you are looking for scratches or scoring anything that is not glassy smooth allows oil to escape pressure. Also, check the mate up surface n the cylinder blocks and again look at the metal between the kidney ports looking for the same kind of thing. that is the usual wear on a K46.

  • Bob Griff says:

    HELLO
    i bought a used John Deere zero turn Z525E , 200 hours , mowing climbing a slope the right hydro static transmission failed , and since then having great difficulty repairing it , the only way i found is to buy a new transmission which costs $950 and with installation and taxes will cost me $1400. it is a very high price to fix a like new lawn mower , any help any suggestions is very appreciated

  • Michael says:

    I bought a John Deere L118 unlimited ran good when I bought it I got it home an my yard has a slope an it started an mowed fine Then it was sluggish on the slope an stopped pulling then just started to sweak like a power steering pump on a car would when it’s low so I had a guy look at it he said changing the fluid would help so I got the stuff an he changed it an within minutes of mowing it started the same thing new belts an new fluid. Is there a tranny that could replace mine or what the cheapest to do thanks in advance

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      There is a bar code sticker on the case close to one of the axles that has a serial number on it. Get the serial number and I can get the link to that transmission.

    • ggraham says:

      Yes, I believe it can but to be sure I would need the serial number off the bar code sticker on the case of the transmission. It is close to one of the axles and normally you can see it from the rear of the tractor. Get the serial number and I can get you the link to your transmission

      Hello,
      Yes, you can go right to the website tufftorq.ordertree.com and order right from there. once you create an account you can go int that transmissions a K46BT and get into the correct serial number break for your transmission and then you will be able to add things directly to a cart. It is unfortunate but the cylinder blocks come to us complete, we do not have the parts for them. and to get a cylinder block you have to get a repair kit.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      There should be a bar code sticker on the case of the front transmission that would have a serial number on it. That will tell you which transmission it is. When you get that number you can email it to salesrvc@tufftorq.com and the helpful techs in the service department will get you the information you need.

  • Vaughn Pretorius says:

    Hi, can forward and reverse be swapped around by installing the motor housing other way round?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Yes it can. However, some transmissions have a valve installed in the centercase to restrict the flow of oil for reverse, thereby making reverse slower for safety reasons. If you have a model that is configured that way forward will be slow and reverse faster when you flip the motor housing.

  • James Cardinale says:

    Do you have a rebuild kit for a 46Z transaxle

  • Joseph Baldwin says:

    Nevermind, I figured it out. After taking a break and clearing my head, I took another look at it. What happened was that when I tried to pull out the original axle seals, I pulled the rubber away from the metal band insert that gives the seal it’s shape and rigidity. That’s why it seemed like it was melted or glued on. Because it was at the factory where it was molded. With a little more force I was able to get that metal band out and was left with a nice clean opening for the new axle seals to go into. Sorry about all that. Maybe you could remove my previous post? And this one? Since it’s a non-issue. Thanks Again. Sorry for wasting your time.

  • Joseph Baldwin says:

    Trying to replace the axle shaft seals on my K46BE. S/N 7A646084120. The seals (#72 187T0134280) that came in my repair kit (1A646099601) will NOT FIT in the original housing. Removing the originals was nothing like any of the repair videos I’ve seen. They almost seemed glued or melted to the housing. Took a lot of careful scraping to get all the old material off of housing. The chamfered opening is the exact diameter of the new seal, but the just inside the housing is what looks like a pressed in bushing. Part # 74 168T203424. So the new seal is so thick, that it bottoms out against that bushing before it comes anywhere close to properly being seated. Are the wrong axle seals being put in the repair kit? Should I remove the bushing? Which appears to have been pressed in anyways. (Doubt it. Also, don’t know how one would go about removing it anyway.) Also on the original seal….did you guys use some type of sealant between the outer circumference of the axle seal and the inner walls of the housing? Seriously, it was like the old axle seal was almost melted or glued to the housing. One other simple question. What does the acronym IDS mean? I.E. Ball IDS/Filter IDS Thank you for any help that would shed some light on this.

    Don’t want to put that much money on this job just want the $71 cylinder block repair & the transmission seal service kit what is item # thanks ?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      I am sorry but the cylinder blocks are locked together with the center case in the repair kit. You have to get the whole kit. without changing the center case you risk the cylinder blocks starting to conform to the wear on the machined face of the center case and then after a short time, you will be in the same predicament as you were in before.

      Though they look alike, swapping one for another is fraught with issues. It is not recommended. The transmissions are built for the specific tractor that they are installed in.

    Do you sell rebuild kit for a L130 AM131580 Hydrostatic Transmission?

  • James River says:

    My Husq mower (164hrs) went from smooth engagement to jerky engagement to NO engagement in about 15 minutes of use. I thought the boots I was wearing might be causing me to not feel the pedal. There is no resistance in the pedal and the brake stop has no grass under it. Can you give me an idea of what the problem could be or where I should start looking?

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      You should probably start with changing the oil in the transmission. Then you can check the pulley and input shaft to make sure they are right and all the linkages. Anything external can be checked with the oil change. After installing you can see if the unit is working better. If it is great. If not then it is time to rebuild or replace the transmission.

  • Sam says:

    I have a john deere L120 with a (BAD) tuff torq k46 trans…….i have an opportunity to purchase a new in box k46 but its for a MTD Ser # 7A646084460. It looks the same but the axle shafts are different where/how the rear wheel attaches. Could the axle shafts from my l120 trans be swapped into the new K46 for the MTD.
    THX

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Swapping transmissions can be very frustrating because of the differences in the various K46’s. Overcoming obstacles cannot be easily done. For instance, the two transmissions you stated have different logic. If you would put the new one in the tractor would go in reverse when you press the forward pedal. Axles aside I would not recommend using that transmission in your tractor.

  • Richie Moylan says:

    I am HP person disabled. I had someone rebuild my K46 tuff torq hydrostatic rebuild transmission kit. The man who did the job? Also change belt & both pedals bushings. John Deere x3oo tractor. Now the problem is tractor pedals forward going in reverse slow, reverse pedal now forward fast. Took transmission apart 2 times and check v block install correct. Please help spent my disability money to pay for tractor transmission. Help me please and thank you. Richie.

      The wedge-shaped motor housing is installed wrong. It needs to be flipped 180 degrees. If the wide side is facing you then the thin side needs to be facing you.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      I believe that the number is 7A646024021? That would be a K46C transmission. The part number for a repair kit for that transmission is 1A646099581.

  • Darren Staples says:

    I have a K46 transaxle case PN 46BE0050278 SA646U84120 I took apart every thing looks great no shavings to speak of, it runs nice cold but when you go on any incline it stops, could it be the oil used it has about 300 hours when i drained the oil it seemed like there was not very much viscosity to the oil, The pump and motor seemed tightwith the plungers. can it get the tolerances for them please ty

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The issue is not the pistons, usually. The issue is the other end of the cylinder block. You would want to check the metal between the kidney ports for scratches, scoring, or anything not flat. Also, the center case face should be glassy smooth. if it is not you are losing pressure between those two parts. Good oil can sometimes help that but it is not a guarantee.

  • roger w wilson says:

    I have a husqvarna lgt2654 with thek46aw transaxle in it. lately i’m having troble going up any kind of incline after the tractor is run for about 30 minutes. it runs fine up till then. i thought it was the main drive belt. i changed it, no improvement. do i need a repair kit of some kind

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Yes, you will probably need to rebuild the transmission but the first step is changing the oil in the transmission. You can then check all the externals of the transmission to make sure nothing there is causing the issue. after the oil change, you can evaluate how the transmission is doing and then figure out if you need to rebuild it then.

  • Jim Maljaars says:

    Hello I have just purchased a used John Deere LTR166 rideon. The rear axle has just snapped off at the wheel hub. Is there a chance of replacing just the axle or do I need to purchase a complete new transmission? Thanks in advance!

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      The axles for the K46A which is installed in the LTR166 has an axle shaft kit. It comes with both axles, axle seals, gasket material, filter, sealing cap, and 3 litres of our 5W-50 synthetic oil. The part number is 1A646099731.

  • Rex says:

    Thanks ggraham! Here are all the numbers off the bar code on the transmission. Hopefully you can tell me which model it is as it may as well be Latin to me LOL! Thanks! TUFF TORQ 768T2024010 S/N: 4OJ-0223283 JDPP PN: AM134582

  • Mel Lucas says:

    I have a Model K45BA transaxle on a Craftsman lawnmower. What is the description/specifications of the belt that needs to be replaced?

    • ggraham says:

      I am sorry but we do not deal with the belts. we only deal with the parts of the transmission. anything that the OEMs install on the transmission or tractor is a part you would need to get from them.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Since we do not sell that part I do not have specifications for it. You would need to back to Sears for the belt.

  • Rex says:

    Hi,

    Also, my pump is gone in it… where can I get a new one?
    Thanking you in advance!

    • ggraham says:

      You would need to check the serial number of the transmission. It is on a barcode sticker on the case of the transmission close to one of the axles and you should be able to see it from the rear of the tractor. The serial number will tell you specifically which transmission you have.

  • Eric A. says:

  • Gary Lansink says:

    I believe I have a K46 trans out of a JD LT125. It looked like it had oil coming from vent and was covered in debris when I got the mower. It has 198hrs on it. I took it out, cleaned it up and did an oil change. Seems like I was wrong. All wet around neutral/in gear shaft and couple drips on floor after 2 weeks sitting. Is there an o-ring around that shaft or?? I do not have the serial number off the axle at this time…

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,

  • Luís Henrique Silveira Pareja says:

    Moro no Brasil tenho um microtrator husqvarna com transmissão K46, mas não consigo saber o tempo de troca do óleo da mesma e o pior, que óleo utilizar, com isso ela foi ficando fraca. Um revendedor do trator me indicou óleo sintético 5 w50, não encontrei o mesmo, me mandaram colocar o 10w40 funciona por 1 hora e quando esquenta ficar fraca, espera esfriar e usa mais uma hora. Acabei por trocar a transmissão por outra nova e não sei como farei a manutenção da mesma. Se possível me indique o tempo de troca do óleo e um tipo de óleo que encontre no Brasil. Obrigado pela atenção.

    • ggraham says:

      Hello,
      Você gostaria de mudar o seu óleo a cada 150 a 200 horas. A menos que você esteja cortando terreno acidentado ou tenha colinas, então você pode querer cortar até 100 horas ou menos. E recomendamos um óleo sintético completo de 5W-50.

    Hi, I have a John Deer 115 which has the tuff torq drive unit and has lost all drive power. I was just wondering if it is worth repairing this by replacing the pump and motor kit or should I just scrap the complete machine. I’m not sure how much the repair kit is yet but I understand it is going to be quite expensive. (if the machine were working it would be worth about UK 450 pounds, aprox 550 USD).
    Any advice would be most appreciated
    Thanks Richie…
