Sorry Bill but you must not have checked out the Library recently. We now have a complete set of service manuals that were issued specifically for the 130/180 tractors. Jennifer needs to go there and select the one that deals with steering issues. Jen's tractor uses a Ross steering box that was also used by several other brands in the 60's. Parts are available for it.Bill.H said:Board index » Technical Library » Service Manuals » Steering and axle section » Steering & Front Axle Manual 9-50392sheldop said:Is there any adjustment on the steering box it seens loose to me?
I don't think there is a complete aftermarket exhaust for the 130-180. I know that Jim D. sells a replacement muffler that is pretty close. The pipe going into the engine block clamps onto a nipple. The support Tom is talking about comes off of the U Bolt that attaches the muffler pipe to the muffler. It then attaches to the engine block.Hydriv said:Sorry Bill but you must not have checked out the Library recently.

Available from John Deere dealers and online from a few Cub Cadet sellers. Google Ross Steering. If you have trouble finding them PM me.
Buying the aftermarket OEM style exhaust system is the best solution for this tractor. It will reduce the amount of noise and the danger from burns. It bolts right onto the engine and is properly braced so it won't put stress on the exhaust port in the block.
Nope, I'm sorry. I totally forgot this thread is about a 130. :facepalm: The other manual was in my mind because I am currently redoing the steering on my 446.Hydriv said:Sorry Bill but you must not have checked out the Library recently.
