Original equipment by Tuff-Torque needed a thread or two.
I bought this transmission for my aging John Deere LA175 riding mower. The old transmission was getting very slow every time it was pointed at a slight gradient once it warmed up.
Fitting the transmission would have been a bit easier if Tuff-Torque had bothered tapping a thread into two of the holes in the casting. One missing thread was for a mounting bracket, easy enough to get to and to deal with.
The other was for the post on the top of the transmission, (adjacent to the pulley/fan) to stop the belt falling off. It is particularly awkward to fit that post at the best of times, and to have to pull the transmission back out because the post wouldn't thread in, then to have to tap the thread into the hole was a good way to introduce folks nearby to my instant Tourette's outbreak. The tapping process is also particularly awkward, as the fan is in the way. If I did not have the ability to take care of these two threads, I would have been stymied.
The transmission worked just fine in the few yards I moved the mower back and forth. Hopefully it lasts longer than the previous transmissions pathetic 420 hours.

Reliable, but only for a few weeks. After that, you're on your own...
I loved the simplicity of this bilge pump switch and had hopes that in my application where it simply turns a well pump in fresh water off and on every 25 minutes, that it would last reasonably well.
It lasted barely six weeks. In that time, to begin with, it was as regular as clockwork, you could time it to the minute when it turned the pump on and off.
After four weeks it got stuck in the 'on' position. Fortunately I have an LED marine light that lights up when the well is pumping, so I could see that it was running longer than the usual 2.5 minutes. A day or two later the light remained off. I pulled the well equipment and glued a fishing float to the top of the switch to add a little weight and buoyancy.
It worked a treat, back to working as regular as a metronome. Then it quit again after a few days. By my calculations it actuated on and off a little less than 2500 times. That simply isn't good enough. The crappy one I had fitted previously managed to run well twice that time (it also needed the fishing float glued to it for it to be reliable).
If I had an expensive boat in the water and was relying on this switch to keep it pumped out and dry, I'd be seriously worried. It's not worth two knobs of doggie doo doo. I guess I'll try an Attwood one next.

Nice mandolin, poor quality strings though.
0 of 1 found this helpful This mandolin appears to be well made and hopefully has a lovely tone...
Sadly, during the initial tuning a string broke before it was even at the correct pitch, a somewhat disappointing issue as it was a Christmas gift to a young man, and there is no way to get replacement strings fitted to it in the short term.
