Yeah, not only is the center spindle harder to grease, it also has the most side load on it, so it also needs greasing the most. It should have a 45-degree angled grease fitting on it to make it easier to grease.

Both bearing sets and and both seals were around $40.

I am going to buy a hose for my greasegun so I can reach around corners better.

Picked up a rear blade the other nite off of Craigslist.
Got it put together and on the the 149.
Today was my first chance to try it out. This is a really great attachment.

Nice find Diz! Makes me wish I had a sleeve hitch.


Lets see what I did today...

well, started out fixing a hydro leak on my 1211...changed every gasket and seal on the tranny, as well as tearing the pump apart, and changing the infamous trunnion seal, as well as the other seals on the pump....cleaned it all up, and gave the tranny a fresh coat of paint, then moved on to painting all 4 rims as well as the mule drive for my 50" deck....hopefully get the deck cleaned and painted tomorrow.

One thing I learned is that actually following the proper torque specs when reassembling the pump and tranny yields no leaks.

Great job, Jeff! Your 1211 looks great. :beerchug:

Diz Jr. 04-10-2010 11:24 PM

Your 1211 is looking good TEET :ThumbsUp:

Thanks fellas:beer2:

I'm contemplating just tering the whole thing down and painting her up, but I need to find some better rear fenders first.:bash2:

I wouldn't bother repainting anything other than your new rear fenders when you get them. They're only original once, and that one looks great.
