    Yep, as the title states, my differential exploded. Luckily, it was on the riding mower tonight and not the GTP. Still bad enough because now we'll have to push mow this freakin' big ass yard.

    Anyway, anyone wants a project, this mower is (was) a great mower. If anything, it's got a great running 14hp engine you could use for a go-cart or something. $100 and you can come drag it out of the yard.

    meh. get some duct tape and some jb weld, and it will be good as new.

    heh...

    id suspect that you might be able to snag a used one of ebay, perhaps. just need to match up the gears/range, the rest are pretty much the same from the MTD line. maybe need to change drive pulley, but thats about it.

    Should have installed a diff squirter, or a limited slip diff

    I wonder how that 14hp motor would work on my push mower. Add a little nitrous for the really thick grass.

    Trust me, get on a side hill of over 20° and you will wish you had a rear engine. Here in the mountains of PA, ain't nothing flat.

    Not to hijack the thread, but that was something I very much liked about my Fiero and my sisters MR2. The whole mid-engine concept is awesome. Ive equated it before to front wheel drive only in the rear. Both cars were just SUPER stable. Well the Fiero had an issue with wet roads but thats another story.
