184 Lo Boy clutch ??
Posted: Sun Aug 12, 2012 3:52 pm
I've picked up an additonal 184 Lo Boy with a 3160 attached mower. Ran and mowed good for a while until the clutch went out (pedal with no resistance) in the worst possible place, on a hill. Dragged it home with the other tractor.
I'm thinking that the fork has spread and overridden the T/O bearing carrier, but for the life of me I can't see the fork to determine what's going on.
What's the easiest way in to the clutch, R&R the PTO belt and pulley assy. or R&R the mower deck and go in from the bottom? Both look either labor intensive or heavy! I'm one for the KISS theory.
Any other diagnosis?
Thanks!!
