Tuff Torq K46b transmission failure again
Comments (0)Craftsman YT4000 which is 3 yrs. old, rebuilt the K46b hydrostatic this past June. Purchased motor and pump from Tuff Torq and used Castrol 5w-50 synthetic oil. I mow 2 acres every week which are 80% flat. Worked really well for 5 months and now back to having the same problem. Very disappointed....See MoreTuff Torq K46 transmission noise
Comments (10)I have a Craftsman DYS 4500. This is the second Craftsman riding mower I have owned. I was surprised by how good it is. I expected less. This is my first hydostatic transmission so I am not familar with the noises they make. Other than the hydrostatic growl, the mower works great. I was concerned about traction on wet grass up hill but it does very well, better than my last one. It does get wet here--I live in Washington State on the wet side of the mountains.

Comments (3)The K46 does have serviceable seals and axle bushings, I believe the seal is driven in rather than being retained by a lip in the housing. You should be able to tell by cleaning the area up and having a look. If it is an active leak rather than a light seep, it should be attended to sooner rather than later. If not sure, clean it up and watch it. No leaks are obviously better than having one. Plus, you get the opportunity to change the oil....See MoreTuff Torq K46V
Comments (0)I was having a lot of trouble with my lawn tractor losing power. I decided to find out why. After doing a little searching on the internet I found that I needed to change the oil in it. When I pulled out the sealer cap and the removing the magnet I found gritty sludge stuck to the magnet. I decided to take my transmission apart and clean it out real good. Everything went well untill I started to put it back together. The hydraulic pumps inside are a devil to reasemble. Especialy the one driven by the pully shaft on top of the tranny. I found out also that it has TWO magnets and a small filter inside. The filter was really dirty. There are two small steel balls inside that are really easy to lose. If anyone takes they'rs apart like I did be very carefull not to lose them. I got my tranny all put back together now and am waiting for a new sealer cap and vent. I had to order those. I am writing this to let folks know that sometimes just changine the oil may not be enough. You might have to do what I did and give it a good cleaning out. Especialy that fiber filter. It gets full of grit and sludge. I don't recomend disasembling the pump housing at all. I lost one of the tiny steel balls. Lucky for me I had another one. The upper rotary pump (the one driven by the pully shaft ) is very hard to reasemble....See MoreRelated Professionals
