try stepping on both pedals at the same time with equal pressure and see if it comes to a complete stop

I see there is one for sale on ebay for a 550 check the part # they may be the same

I just took my clutch packs apart and found very little wear on them, most of the wear was in the forward reverse pack. I'll replace the 2 disc next to the piston in forward, and 1 in reverse. The only significant wear in the other 3 packs were next to the piston and Ill replace all 3. This transmis...

More than likely water came from condensation over time, the right way would be to open each line, on each cylinder while using the correct lever to cycle the ram.

I have been able to find the parts I needed but a little confused about what disc I should use. Mother Deere wants $126. dollars apiece, I found some for around $50 down to around $20 has anyone had any experience w/after market disc?

Thanks for your imput it seems hard to find some one with experiance in these machines. I r...

I have already double checked gauges and there right. after about an hour of pushing my temp reading is abou...
