This is perfect, surprised I hadn’t seen this video sooner. This will come in real handy when I ever get around to locking up mine! In the meantime I’ve been collecting all the 2300’s I can get because Peerless said they’re “obsolete” in an email reply.
Thanks for sharing your methods , some people will criticize the way they are being locked, but you got to remember this isn’t a 9” Ford it’s a garden tractor transaxle.
andrew brinker yeah a lot of people have different opinions, although someone may not agree with the way ive been locking these transaxles, it also shows people how to properly disassemble and reassemble. So they can lock there axle what ever way they like, thanks for the support!
MightyRaze dougs original trans had cast iron hubs also. This trans didn’t go to this tractor, I was able to grind down the key ways and make the cast iron hubs work on this axle with no issues
RichieRichOverdrive I figured you could doc lock it only difference I saw was the bull gear plates had notches machined in them for oil to enter the dif, ive never seen an 820 with them
How well do you think a 2300 would hold up if I give it more than 3600rpm input? Trying to see if I can use the 2300 for higher speeds, like a street cruiser or something...?
Hi redzz I have a question I plan on putting some shocks on the front of my 80’s sears do you think I can use the front axle that is on it or do you think I have to make a new axle. Thanks in advance
Great, well described how-to video. Gasket, who wants to buy a new gasket anyhow!? LOL How long did it actually take you to do it all? Thanks for a fab video Redzz02!
Paulie Detmurds I hate buying gaskets lol, I could probably do one with in a couple hours, draining the oil and adding new oil is probably the most time consuming part of the process
Is their any difference between the 2300 and 2350. If so what are the differences. Please let me know, if you happen to know. Looking to replace my busted 2300 for a 2350 I found cheap. Both were from Bolens. Thanks.
I honestly do not know, peerless does not list separate information for the 2350, my assumption would be that it’s just a variation of the 2300 model. You should be fine with swapping them but I do not know of any differences for sure
@@redzz02 one more thing where do I fill it from I seen something on you fill it from the where the shifter is inserted but I thought I would ask and see anyway

They are done producing alot of our common mower transaxles

StarPuss www.ToxicRedNeck.Com thanks for watching!
Im definitely using this video to help me weld the 2300 in my gilson
james yoder I’m hoping it helps!
nice job, got a no weld version?
I do not
Interesting to see the differences in Doug's and my 2300. Mine had cast iron hubs and a 3/4" keyed input and snap ring.
MightyRaze dougs original trans had cast iron hubs also. This trans didn’t go to this tractor, I was able to grind down the key ways and make the cast iron hubs work on this axle with no issues
Good informational video. Got a peerless 600 laying around?
Will you do a step by step on how to replace a detent spring in a 2300 series because my shifter is stuck in gear and I need help to fix it.
U done a good job sean I got to do my son hezikiah's JD that way
Thanks ronald!
Nicely done redzz02.
Mr Studabaker thank you!
Yep, just fozzy it. Exact same as an 820. You can even doc lock it like an 820
RichieRichOverdrive I figured you could doc lock it only difference I saw was the bull gear plates had notches machined in them for oil to enter the dif, ive never seen an 820 with them
Those shouldn't make much difference.
Got a 820 but with 3/4 wheel shafts and different differential, such a crappy 820...
What is the diameter of the drive axles REDZZ02 ???
1”
video cool, interesting story, like my friend👋🤘🤘🤘
Can you do a detailed video on lockimg a 820 perless
It's the exact same as this. I just used this to lock my 820 about 5 mins ago.

They hold up go for it! Check out Mightyraze here on youtube, he just finished up a sears street cruiser with a 2300 swapped into it
He actually commented on this video down below you can just click on his name
