Hi
I am writing in to try & help my dad.
He has a John Deere 68 ride on mower which has been absolutely fantastic. He has happily been able to repair & maintain it himself over the years, but now some small plastic parts in the gearbox have broken & the pars are obsolete & John Deere main dealers say they can't help me.
Reference for these parts is Catalogue 1507: grid D10: Section Page 87 from Catalogue name:- 65, 66 & 68 riding mowers
He is looking for parts AM36110 & AM36111, which are small plastic retainers
inside the gearbox.
The gearbox that this mower has is a Foote gearbox, but I believe it is
interchangeable with a Peerless transmission which is numbered AM37434 for the
transmission ( sub for AM35523) or (sub AM38286) Foote
Also AM38286 Kit Peerless complete transmission, which includes parts to replace a
Foote to a Peerless transmission.
I have been unable to find out which Peerless gear box would be interchangeable as I only have the John Deere part number for it & John Deere have been unable to tell me what the Peerless reference for it would be
Ideally we would just like the retainers, as that is the only part that has failed.
Please advise if you have the parts available or on any suitable substitute.
It would be terribly sad to retire this old gem just for the want of a tiny plastic part.
I have the PDF on the parts page available & photo's of the plastic retainers if they would be any help.
Any help/advice would be gratefully received. Thank you
