Picked this up Saturday from my brother in law. It was my Dad's. He gave me his 1863 and my brother in law the GT1554, before he passed. Brother in law got tired of cutting his grass and asked me if I wanted it and I said, absolutely. It is not too bad for a newer model. It does have the 27HP command and not the courage. 185 hours on a working meter. Pretty cool that it has a oil cooler. The only thing that does not work is the cruise control. It does surge little when it not under a load. Maybe a carb cleaning or rebuilding needed. It has sat for 2-3 years. I been researching the rear and it is not serviceable.

Has anyone ever changed the fluid in the rear of one of these? If you have one or one similar, how many hours before the tranny dies?
