Yep, as the title states, my differential exploded. Luckily, it was on the riding mower tonight and not the GTP. Still bad enough because now we'll have to push mow this freakin' big ass yard.

Anyway, anyone wants a project, this mower is (was) a great mower. If anything, it's got a great running 14hp engine you could use for a go-cart or something. $100 and you can come drag it out of the yard.

meh. get some duct tape and some jb weld, and it will be good as new.

heh...

id suspect that you might be able to snag a used one of ebay, perhaps. just need to match up the gears/range, the rest are pretty much the same from the MTD line. maybe need to change drive pulley, but thats about it.

you know....same principal as the 03-04 cobra guys. When you have wheel hop...your suppose to get out of it. I wonder what that thing would have done if you finished th quarter mile?

Should have installed a diff squirter, or a limited slip diff

I wonder how that 14hp motor would work on my push mower. Add a little nitrous for the really thick grass.

It whines a lot, but I like it.

The only limitation you will ever face in life is yourself!

Well, I see your problem. Your engine is in the wrong spot!

Here is the correct location:
