Hello all.
First, some background. We have a 2007 HPX 4x4 diesel gator that we use for a maintenance buggy in a shipyard. 5900 hard hours on it. It does not have an easy life. It gets driven hard and put away wet, was run over by a barge and rolled, rough terrain in the yard, and lots of stop/starts.
Lately, the rear transaxle/differential started leaking. There are multiple pinholes in the case. The more we cleaned it, the more leaks we found! We did a patch with JB Weld to stop the leaks, but I think a catastrophic failure of the case is imminent.
I really don't want to pay for a new trans for this, so I've been looking on ebay, etc. Do these transaxles interchange with other models? Are the gas and diesel the same? I'm assuming 4x2, 4x4 and 6x are different.
Appreciate any help you can give us.
