I just spent some big money on an mta.After it was loaded I noticed the Patch under the housing where it was repaired sometime in its life(bearing failure).I have a complete 400 rearend.Would any of you know if I could use the 400 housing on the MTA?tThe casting #s are the same but will the top plate off the mta bolt on.Thank you very much for any help.

I have done that swap in reverse to install a 400 fast hitch on a SMTA. In order words, I put a 400 lid on a SMTA tub.

You should have no problems. If it were me, I would change out the tub and lid and find a fast hitch to go with the new parts. The 400 lid will need several holes drilled to accept the steering post of the SMTA.

While I was at it, I also put 560 gears and bearings in the tractor. I wanted the slower first gear as well as the slower ring and pinion of the 560. I didn't need to change out the bearings but I noticed they were bigger and I assumed better. I now have a SMTA that creeps in first gear low range and has a top speed around 11 MPH. Perfect.

TWL,Not sure but I can"t think of any reason it would"nt, You could always clean the repaired area and J-B weld it inside and out it"s one of the best products I"ve ever used, I used to weld them but that was a big job and very time consuming.good luck,Al
