Creeper
 

I have always wanted a creeper for my Original, but have a question. It doesn't have the hole for the shifter and 2nd, is the wheelbase the same? Seems to me if you add something in the drive train, it will be longer? :bigthink:

I have that manual Sam. I don't see the answers there? Am I missing something?

You need to cut/find a shorter driveshaft.

I have one and a Danco creeper. I think what Sam is telling me is how to separate the tractor? I assume you just separate it and add the creeper. But then you have to cut a hole in the housing for the stick? I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that if I add something in the driveline, it should make it longer? And I should have said deteriorating mind.:bigeyes: Wait a minute, the shorter driveshaft difference takes the slack?

You will have to cut a hole since you have an earlier tractor, pull the clutch out, remove the 2 bottom bolts that hold to rear to the frame and bolt it on.

Thanks, I think I have it figerred out. I might have to call the CC police to help on this one.:callyou:

I thought the info was in the service manual but I was wrong. You will need to shorten the drive shaft to accommodate the length of the creeper, you'll need to cut the hole for the shift lever. Sorry but I don't have a creeper so I can't give you more info. Others that have them will probably chime in. Just wondering why you want a creeper? To me it just more stuff to go wrong.

Glad to help, sounds good!

Because it's cool? The 2nd Original is getting optioned out. I have the parts, soooo:Duel:

Nick,
Come on down here and help me. That way I can get a # 3 Cart.:biggrin2:

From the Danco creeper installation manual

Lol,
Fastenal is your friend.:biggrin2:

Have fun. :beerchug:

Boy that's the truth. They ship very cheap from store to store.

In the creeper install manual Sam sent, it says you have to loosen the engine and lift one side up. I assume this is for making a new driveshaft? If you have the correct length one, you bypass that part?
