Awesome! Thank you for that info. I have a worn rear coupler on my 149 and I already have a 2000 series drive shaft. With Jeff's adapter I should be good to go. Apologies for highjacking the thread.

Sam's talked about that conversation like 100 times. I'm surprised you didn't know....not picking on you. But it's been mentioned a lot.

I did know, but I always assumed that it was done mainly to replace all the junk at the flywheel end because it is a simple bolt-on transition. I wasn't aware there was an adapter available to do the hydro end. I will be contacting Jeff today.

The 149 drive cup was shot as was the end of the drive shaft. Once I got the length as I wanted it I marked it, pulled it out of the tractor, drilled it and put a 1/4" spirol pin in it. Then I reinstalled it. :beerchug:

+1 snug fit. The one I did I had to "persuade" it on with a rubber mallet.
