125 Drive shaft
Since my engine is at the machine shop I took the opportunity to change my driveshaft because it isn’t very straight and was causing vibration. So I consulted my shop manual on how to split the tractor because I thought it would be easier. The directions and illustrations are good, but the tractor in the manual doesn’t have a sleeve hitch. When I had the seat and fenders off, the seat support is connected to the lifting mechanism. By the time I got there, I could see the back of the hystat pump but not the drive shaft connection. I decided to put it all back together and try a different route. Has anyone here changed a driveshaft on a 125 while the engine was out? What am I doing wrong, or how can I change my approach?
