What is a good recommended source that will ship parts to Canada? 2. Is the override coupling I need if I want to put a modern mower onto my 8N this one here: http://www.ytmag.com/C670F_9653.htm I base this on the understanding that the 8N has a 1-1/8" male spline, and modern mowers have a 1-3/8 female spline. Correct? 3. What parts do I need to think about for a brake job? I'll be hauling my tractor from the cabin back to the city for some work, and I'd love to do the brakes while it's there. (One side doesn't work at all, the other is marginal.) And I'd like to get it back to the cabin ASAP, so it'll be available for plowing snow off the drive, now that winter is on the way. Without having opened it up yet, is there a "standard" repair that can be expected (and for which I can pre-order parts), or is it a matter of inspecting the brakes before I can order anything? Thanks, -Paul [Reply]   [No Email]

It doesn't hurt (much) to buy them now, and put 'em on the shelf if they're not actually needed yet. A reference to a part number on this site or Just 8N's would be helpful.

THing is if everything is there, and in good shape all you need is new shoes. But if hardware is missing/broken you will not know it until it's apart. Rick [Reply]  [No Email]

I just wanted to confirm that I wasn't misreading or misunderstanding the specs on that part. -Paul [Reply]  [No Email]
