This is a good four part How To Series on Rebuilding a Hydrostatic Garden Tractor Transmission. This guy, knows what he is doing. Check out sixtyfiveford YouTube Channel for the rest, or they may just show up in the next related video, automatically on YouTube. If not, then I put them in on of my Playlist, Don's Favorite How To Videos 4. They show up, in reverse order. I put them in as I watched the videos. I wish YouTube would make an easy way to put videos in their correct order, in their Playlists. Any of the other sort settings. Would make the newest videos. Show up at the end of the Playlist...

I have a hydrogear hydrostatic transmission with a BDU10L-256 hydrostatic unit. Pulled it apart and everything looked good. On center plate were some scratches. We milled them out and put everything together and nothing. No movement at all. Anybody have any suggestions on what to do next. Thanks....stumped in Virginia.

+Denise Wilcox jack up back wheels and run engine at idle speed for 10 minutes, If your not hearing a grinding it could be air.

Hello doublewide6. got a problem? rebuilt k46 hydro transmission with your tips thanks. however gearing has switched. when I use forward pedal, mower goes backward, when use reverse, goes forward, mower is using appropriate gear but in opposite direction. Suspect differential gears as I had moved them a bit but not removed them. I have new pump, motor and filter. Not a belt problem as there is only one short one from motor to transmission. Probably will have to remove and replace again. Mower is Husqvarna 155, with k46. Any Ideas?

+qstore4814 What parts did you replace to fix yours? Was it the pump or the motor or both?

I was wondering where you get the spare parts for your transmission. Is there a website?

Thanks for the video you beat me to it . I live near one of John Deere assembly plants the workers say most components are made in China did you find that to be true ? Also it seems to me that the new John Deere decided to make throw away mowers that are made to last for x amount of time then hope the buyer buys a new one from them . My mower has a deck blade timing belt that goes bad about three times per season and is sold only at JD for $80 bucks as far as I can tell . also bad trans axle
