as the title says

How strong is that transaxle??? HI run it with 30'' jeep tire no lock no pulley swap for now with 14hp briggs. I whis to know of it can handle it in trail because I didnt have a chance to try yet. Second how far it could support upgrade ???? like pulley swap , diff lock , more hp + Im looking to use 33'' tire because I have 2 I dont use and I thing it will look even better with it

Well I ran 24" tires on mine, but after about 6 months the case snapped under the differential. I had it geared to go 15 and I had a stock 18 hp opposed twin briggs. my brother was driving it and he hit a rut and it snapped. I would look for a stronger transaxle, or put a solid 3/4 shaft all the way threw it to make the axle. if it was solid mine wouldn't have broken.

do you mean a solid axle or maybe a fully welded diff, it will become stronger what about the other gears in that case

if you weld the diff gears together it would work.
