Two Are Better Than One Posted by Ron3520 on 07/02/2013

When a planetary gear wore out in 1998 it was too expensive to repair, so I bought a used 242 without an engine and put the engine from the broken tractor on it. Now that eBay has brought the availability of used parts to everyone everywhere I decided to restore the original 424. With a little machining I was able to fit a 16hp Kohler on the transmission. A lot of powder coat and some paint should make it look like new. I will post some pictures when finished.
