*Chain Drive Trans?*
Post by nico on Oct 28, 2005, 10:17am
I am looking for a trans to use with a cart axle, but am having little
luck. These seem scarce in my area... What part numbers or model numbers
should I be looking for? What applications were these units originally
available in?. I have found the Spicer 37-H trans picuted below pretty
cheap. Are they of any value for a racing appilication?

not really they are very weak, you need to look on old comercial walk
behind mowers or older rear engine mowers, the older smaller mowers many
were equipped with transmissions. You are looking for peerless 700
series 3,4, or 5 speeds meaning the part number will be a 700 number or
be a 700-xxx type number. Or some use the peerless 3 speed H pattern
models 350 or 400 series. I prefer the 700 series though.

Thanks, the rear engine mowers seem to be very plentiful in this area...
I'll have to start looking under some of them. I rarely see a commercial
walk behind model.

most are there are some 500 series that are dang near identical but only
personally saw one, if its a peerless and its a 5 speed tranny I would
bet the bank its a 700 series
