Offering this new replacement Heavy-Duty Peerless 855-005 Series transaxle for $875.00 -- a 15% discount off the $1,031.00 MSRP This transaxle is factory-lubricated, ready to bolt-in and run.
This in-line-shift, gear-drive, new-in-box Model 855-005 Series replacement Peerless transaxle has the horizontal 3/4"-diameter x 2-3/4" long input shaft. It has 1"-diameter axle shafts with 6-1/2" keyways; 8-5/8" of 1" axle is exposed on one side and 10" of 1" axle is exposed on the input-shaft side. Axle ends are threaded 3/4"-16 SAE fine threads for 1-1/2" at each end. The overall end-to-end axle length is approximately 39-3/8".
It has the short, square-end shift shafts with new shift arms included, packed separately as shown. It includes a new screw-terminal neutral-safety switch, as shown. It also includes a new case breather (remove the breather-hole plug the transaxle is shipped with and install the breather prior to installation).
This transaxle has industry-standard mounting holes on 15-3/8" side-to-side centers x 2-1/2" front-to-back centers. The top-case engine-mount holes are on 3-1/8" side-to-side centers x 6-3/8" front-to-back centers. MOUNTING NOTE: The four engine-mount post holes above the gear-cluster end are pre-threaded to accept 5/16"-18 USS (coarse) bolts; the two transaxle-support post holes at the axle end of the housing are not threaded and are on 3-1/8" centers. The OEM uses self-threading bolts to hold the transaxle supports. If you are re-using your original bolts or equivalent OEM bolts, make sure they have clean threads when re-installing these supports. If you do not have the original-style bolts and are using standard machine-thread bolts for these front-corner supports, you will need to carefully tap these holes to match the threads of your bolts.
This replacement 855-005 transaxle has two Forward speeds -- 3.08:1 for 1st, and 1.50:1 for 2nd. It also has Neutral and 1.40:1 Reverse. Input ratio is 5.44:1 and final-drive ratio is 8.03:1. This makes overall ratios of 134.53:1 for 1st, 65.52:1 for 2nd, and 61.15:1 for Reverse.
This transaxle also includes the differential lock. The differential lock is spring-loaded in the disengaged position -- you have to move the differential-lock lever toward the axle to lock the differential. The hole at the end of the differential-lock lever moves 3/4" from Disengage to Engage..

FEEDBACK: Our Feedback is 100%, which is good. The latest Feedback, however, is in December of 2011, which may raise questions. The reason for this is because we had to drop PayPal as an Approved Payment Method in our Store due to eCrater’s restrictions, and the only way Feedback can be left is if we show PayPal as an Approved Payment Method and the Buyer pays with PayPal through the eCrater Checkout. For this reason, there are no Feedbacks since December of 2011, even though we’ve had hundreds of satisfied customers since then. If you would like to get a referral from a recent customer near you, please let us know. We have nothing to hide, and your satisfaction is our priority.
