I pulled the HST out of my 855 parts donor so I can swap it into my 955. First off, where can I get myself a nice set of Japanese tools? My 'merican tools don't seem to be able to bend and contort themselves into the shapes necessary to easily access nuts and bolts on these tractors. Second, if I ever get the chance to meet the author of the FSM, that feller is gonna get a full-force running kick in the junk!

That is all.........

That's long been one of my complaints about the way a lot of trucks/cars/tractors were designed. They should make the design engineers tear down one of every model and put it back together from scratch BEFORE it's ever released for production. Also, make them do one of every usual repair procedure such as water pump replacement, etc. I'll keep holding my breath for that to happen......
