First time visit, First time post! Awesome forum!!!
I'm the proud new owner of a 1975 L175. My father managed to bust some teeth off the input shaft so he gave it to me... Now I just have to fix it.
I got the shop manual from I&T. It seems pretty straight forward but wanted to ask the experts for any advice before I get started. It looks like I have to pull the transmission apart in both the front and back of the tractor.
The only part that looks bad are the teeth on the input shaft or Main Shaft as some call it. Should I also replace the gear (don't know its name) that engages the broken teeth? It doesn't appear to have any damage but didn't want to tear it down that far to realize I should have replaced both for a better mesh.
I was also wondering if anyone knows a place I could get these parts for a reasonable price, Used or new.
Thanks-
Jamey
