got the ragb all done and the bearings on the extended shaft along with the keyway's in the shaft done, i dont see this giving me any problems, should be pretty stout, there is an extra hub on the shaft beside the 12 tooth sprocket, there will be a 13 tooth sprocket on here as well for super fast gearing changes, have done this on another mower and works really well, just loosen them up and slide them over....

i believe his has the smaller 3/4'' shafts on his ragb... i could be wrong, but if it lives behind his, it should live behind mine....

Right now i have a choice

Modified class :  Must utilize a shiftable transmission or transaxle
super mod : Centrifugal clutch, traditional belt clutches allowed.  90 degree gear boxes, jackshaft setups allowed.  

I have a race to either find a RAGB or shiftable transmission or transaxle   Which ever one i find tells me what class i will be in

Also price   ragb and clutch     i have a peerless 600 but it only has a 3/4 axle    if i can find a cheep 700 tranny
Also  nice work on making a 600 into a transmission

if buying new a ragb and a foot operated clutch might be the cheapest, but 700 trannys can be found pretty cheap....

The RAGB 1000 Series inside from bearing to bearing is the same Its the outsides that are different IE Jerbs has 7/8 shafts where mine were turned down to 3/4 shafts for different applications. They got em with spline shafts 1/2 inch shafts all different shapes and sizes but from where they are in the bearings thru the inside to the next they are all the same oh and they have either left hand or right hand.

Yes. I have swapped gaears and shafts around all the time over the years. Even made my own shafts by keying the internal gears instead of using the splines. This works well also when ya got em abd shafts are trashed and ya don't wanna spend 100 on a shaft and have access to a machine shop.
