the showman 4,074 #53 Posted April 4, 2015 Don't go on numbers on transmissions, all the casings i have are stamped 6941 but underneath there is a small number 1, 2, and 3, 1 and 2 are 3 speed 1" axles only difference is which hole the brake shaft comes out of, and 3 is the same except it has 1 1/8" axles. All very confusing when you've got 4 boxes in bits, anyway heres some photos, you work it out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meadowfield 1,900 #54 Posted April 4, 2015 They didn't make it easy Chris, I always thought all 8 speed were 1-1/8 axle, until I pulled the hubs off a 312-8 tranny and they were 1" with a 4 pinion diff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #55 Posted April 4, 2015 At the end of the day I've ended up with a working 3 speed tranny with new bearings and seals, all I've got to do is refit it and fill it with oil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the showman 4,074 #56 Posted April 4, 2015 Well its all back in the tractor, had it running and been through the gears and all seems to be doing what it should. Left it running for a bit in gear to circulate the oil 6 diggerjames, nigel, pmackellow and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the showman 4,074 #60 Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks Andrew, the casing i had in stock and the needle rollers and oil seals came from BRT bearings in Brighton, they had them in stock 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the showman 4,074 #62 Posted April 7, 2015 Done a bit more today, made a new wiring loom replaced the rubber bushing in the fuel tank, cleaned out the carb, replaced the solenoid and made new battery leads and new fuel pipe. Had it running in the shed on stands for ages and ran it through the gears, all seems good. I'm at the point now where I've got to decide ,,, do i bolt it back together and offer it for sale or do i do a complete resto job then sell it 1 Triumph66 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
