If you need parts for the clutch, talk to Jeff in PA. I know I already said that, but do it.

That said, get a heavier spring from MWSC here. Red is fine.
Also, buy a Kevlar disc and use it. It's cheaper than a stock disc, and will have smoother engagement. Yes, it has 6 holes in it. You will just use 3 unless you upgrade your driver, but for the HP your going to be at, it isn't necessary.


You mentioned installing a creeper. You can. But for what you are planning on doing with it, you won't need it. If you truly only plan to plow dirt and snow with this tractor, I'd look at removing 1st gear and installing the low speed second gear in it's place, and putting the high second gear in the second gear spot. You will plow dirt in 2nd, and that would give you two choices of plowing speed. A slow and fast. There are 3 different ratio's of stock second gears. You just need to find one of each and swap them out. Plowing snow..... depending on how far you are plowing, you may be in 3rd doing that anyway, so it won't matter. Only time you will miss first gear is loading it on a trailer, and pulling it in the garage. If you wanted you could always put on a creeper and still have a slow range. Creepers don't scare me.


How's that for info?
