Pulled the (heavy, oomph!) rear tire first, and supported with a jack stand.

Here is a phot of the plug where the heater has to go. I pulled the parking brake rod out of the way for better access here.

Final install of Trans heater. I used the clamp to hold the wire and a cable tie near the ac plug to keep it from flying around.

John - Thanks mucho for the great photos and instructional text. I take it the heater fits inside the transmission screen?When you get a moment can you post the part number of the complete kit for the Transmission Oil Heater. I see the individual components on JD Parts, but not the kit. BTW it appears the same unit is used for many JD CUTs including the 670/770 (not listed for the 790, but I'd bet it fits fine). Thanks.

Sorry if I'm missing something.. I just scanned the thread briefly as I don't have a 990...

But...

Why not just drop by the JD dealer and ask them where it goes? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Hi

The trans heater does fit into the suction strainer cover. The JD mechanic showed me the right place. JD did not list a kit number.

I was able to swap the cover plug and heater and only lose about 4 -6 oz of trans fluid. Get everything set and go for it ! Put a bucket underneath for the excess..

The trans parts are:
AR94493 Heater Element $43.50
AR95434 AC plug and Wire $12.75
R34557 Clamp Z34587 $1.50

Good luck All
John

Thanks for the great pics. I don't have the trans heater but it seems easy enough to install. How easy is it to plug it in with the tire on?
