375. What kind of lubes can I use in my snapper drive train and how can I do it 

Tractor supply has "00" grease brand name is Super S. It is called cotton picker spindle grease at $5.99 a quart. works great and it's cheep.

Best channel ever for Snapper.

Another excellent video, Jim. Praying for those poor folks. Can't imagine what they have & are going thru.

Hey Jim ! Thank You for your helpful video & Godspeed to those fellow Americans in Kentucky & in there recovery efforts & I have quite a few relatives in Kentucky ! But fortunately they are on the eastern side of the state ! & our prayers go out to those who suffered.

Really appreciate your awesome videos!

As always great video Jim, I can assure you that I will forever be a subscriber and my bell will always be clicked. I always look forward to getting a new notification from your channel!

your chair wheels sounded, for a second, like a woman complaining 🤣

Thank you for answering my question with this video! A little extra work but I need to do something as that old Snapper gear oil has never been changed! Thanks!

Hi Jim - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. I guess I've been lucky with my 1996 box section RER. I was afraid of stripping down the gear case for fear of opening up a hornets' nest so I just bunged in 80/90 gear oil up to the fill level and kept on cutting. The old grease must have blocked all holes as I haven't had any leaks! We've seen the tornado footage on the news here and it's impossible for us to comprehend the impact of such events. I hadn't realised that they could strike all the way up to the Great Lakes.

Well said jim

I have the older spindle style (new/old stock) and i have decided just to put it in a lathe and machine out two O-ring grooves in the proper place.

Thx Jim !!!

I am subscribed Jim, you can buy 00 GREASE from Tractor supply company for 7 bucks for a quart. That is the cheapest price I have found Sir. Now that is a deal. Or you can mix half number 2 grease and 500 weight ford differential oil for the model T Ford will make real sticky grease like snapper lube that will not dry out. Also, my Snapper dealer said Snapper does not sell the lube any more.. Thanks for the information Sir. vf

What lube would you use in your snapper rear engine rider differential that you are really proud of and and want to make last and keep forever? Thank you. Really enjoy your videos And find them very helpful.

Nice shirt Jim.Praying 4 those poor souls.

Well i do have some differential gear oil 80w90 and Amazon is out of that 00 transmission oil grease for the chain case I checked this guys and his is almost out of grease or oil in the chain case I gotta put something in it and I don't mind what it is long as it wets those parts his sprocket teeth are still good I'm surprised His differential is lubricated and good with old stuff in it I'm not gonna mess with that But the chain case needs lubrication I have a bottle of 80w90 gear oil and I'm gonna use that maybe that and pump some white grease in with it. It needs something because those chain sprockets are almost dry the teeth are good

Capillary Action on Lucas products!

Hey Jim..I'm kinda like you in this case..ill put whatever i think works..i use graphite grease in all bearings..of course i can't find it anymore but I'm still looking..I've used STP OIL TREATMENT before but i thinned it out with rear end oil it worked out perfectly ..hope you and your family have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.. See you on the next one Cheers friend 🍹🍹🍹🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Jim, I'm with you on the tragedy. Hello Jim Jackson fans. We can help those folks. There are many organizations you can donate too. I sent $500.00 to Samaritan's Purse yesterday. Red Cross is another good organization. Pray for those folks, it could happen to any of us!

I don't know if anyone has suggested this, but it seems one advantage of using 90W or similar "fluid" is that a powerful rare-earth magnet could be mounted within one of the rubber plugs. This might allow the particulates generated through wear to be filtered out of the case helping to prevent further wear. Might make for a good experiment. The plug would need to be removed in concert with the magnet to keep the fines from falling back in, but I think that could be managed.

Hey Jim, great video per usual . I’m rebuilding the drive train on my wife’s m301019be by watching your videos , or trying my best lol .. How many ounces of Lucas gear lube are you putting in the chain case and in the differential please sir ? My granddads 30084T or S is next in line for drive train repair so I’ll be looking for your videos of that model hopefully .. Thanks and keep up the good work neighbor , god bless !

Thanks for your videos! I have had my snapper rear engine rider since 2005, and am thinking this winter I want to try and do some more extensive maintenance like you’re talking about with the diff and chain case lubricant.

Have a great holiday!!!!!!!

With you on the thoughts and prayers for the storm victims and families. My phone started acting weird and went through a slow death. Overall it took about 3 weeks to beginning getting my replacement phone in shape. One of the things I just found is I was unsubscribed to your channel. I have no idea how that happened but maybe there are hidden glitches to these updates?

Jimmy I switched to corn head lube from Reemans tractor in Fremont, used in combines. It loosens up to gear lube when rotating and then thicker up luke grease when slow HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF THAT

Jim how about the word STICTION.

Hello Jim looking for a video on how to re- seal my snapper hi vac walk behind gear box. Any ideas or links? Thank in advance.

Hi Jim, I'm rebuilding/using an old 28 inch. I am wondering what color to use to repaint it with.

My lawnmower repair shop sells the rotary brand of 00.grease for the drive system system on the rear engine rider by snapper what is your thoughts on this type of the rotary brand of grease

Why are there bird mouths? I don't understand did Snapper or Briggs & Stratton put that in there on purpose?

what does the bird mouth do jim? and what feature is it?

Hey Jim how's it been Brother!

Lets all pray for kentucky.

Can't seem to email u Jim.Says invalid.
