Are the tiff torq 7a545084160 any good for a tractor build

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 14th 2019, 10:31 pm

I assume you are reffering to the Tuff Torq hydrostatic drive transaxles, and if so this post should've been made in the "Transaxles and Transmissions" section...

Anyways, to answer your question would require more information. What kind of tractor build? What all do you plan to be doing with it? What kinda of tires planned? Etc.

I have a continental 4a032 air cooled opposed 4 cylinder from a military genset that I want to put on a nutty widebody and want a transaxle that will handle the torque of that engine afar as tire problem turf right now sorry about putting in the wrong place

Hmmm, that sounds like quite a power plant. Is is a vertical shaft lawn tractor transmission? If so you'd be probably be better off trying to use an old garden tractor transaxle with a horizontal pinion shaft.

Trying to use an old Cub Cadet transaxle would be really neat and one of those would hold up without question.

Now the trick to find one

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 15th 2019, 3:43 pm

I really don't think a tuff torq unit will handle all that power. I have one in my JD LT160 and it's really only meant for a low speed light duty lawn mower. I tried a mild pulley swap on it and it overheated after prolonged use.

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 15th 2019, 5:30 pm

Do you think a 205 will last with that engine with a carb swap

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 15th 2019, 5:52 pm

I very highly doubt an MST 205 would hold up with that engine. This is definitely a job for an old garden tractor transaxle.

OK here's the confusing thing about that tiff torq axle it has a stick to shift gears but it's a auto

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 15th 2019, 6:16 pm

Cub cadet would hold up, and is also shaft driven so the drivetrain layout would be really easy to put together. They’re out there, just gotta pay to play

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 15th 2019, 6:25 pm

It would be nice to see some pictures and to know what the axle size is on this specific tuff torq axle

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 15th 2019, 6:44 pm

When I'm at my buddies house that has it I'll get some pics if I remember to

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 17th 2019, 1:21 pm

OK I got the best pic I could of the axles but how do I post them

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 17th 2019, 1:30 pm

Sorry it's the best one I could get

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 17th 2019, 4:16 pm

I’m still thinking it’s a light duty unit.

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 17th 2019, 5:08 pm

What's a good price on a cub cadet

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 17th 2019, 5:09 pm

Did the cub cadet ever come with more than 3 speeds

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 19th 2019, 7:57 pm

I don't think so, I hear the gear driven ones are fairly slow too.

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 19th 2019, 10:46 pm

OK here's something off the wall np435 granny gear 4spd and ford 8.8 narrowed

Subject: Re: a tuff torq 7a545084160 January 19th 2019, 10:50 pm

Now that sounds like a better plan for this kinda power plant!
