Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild

If I remember right Murray ceased to exist in 2006. They are now MTD made.

Correction... Murray was taken over by Briggs & Stratton in 2005/2006 ... Boobala

I stand corrected. Not sure it is any better. Only time will tell. They do now sale a ZTR so that is a plus.

Murray is now made in China.
Not sure if under license or if brand name has been sold .
The mowers are direct copies of the pre B & S Murray.

Can't keep up with ownership /company /subdivisions / spinoffs / mergers / trades / brand-names etc. etc.
It seems every month theres a name change ...

Roger,
You can call me Jar Head, Leather Neck, Webfoot Warrior, Marine or just Tom. ;-)

Tom,

Buddy, you KNOW I'm just gonna call you by your given name, even if you have earned all the other monikers...

Someday if we ever get together (remember - FREE lobsters in Maine!) I'll tell you some stories of the terrible tricks we played on Jarheads in various parts of the world!!

By-the-by... Boo-Boo and I are supposed to get together and meet this coming Saturday.. so if you never hear from me again, inform the authorities, OK??

Thanks,

Roger

Re: MTD Yardman Transaxle Rebuild

Here are some more pictures, I fabbed up a front and rear mount for a small winch and added tire chains on the rear wheels.Needed the chains to make going up a hill we have at the farm easier. The winch because I could. ;-)







Hope that satisfies your daily requirement for mower porn. LOL
