I am supposed to pick up a 4-wheel steer craftsman mower with no motor, for free.Does anybody know How the rear steer works? Is it a transaxle or transmission with a seperate axle setup? Any links to drawings of how this works? I haven't seen this mower yet but am already dreaming of the possibilities. I should be picking it up this weekend.       Tom

this is the same mower i have it has a transaxle with a bunch of bonus crap to make it steer bolted to the outside. the real trick is how the two are hooked together. follow the link and you will see

it does not have the original tranaxle so i cant but the sears drawing does a pretty good job of showing it.
i could probably get the parts from the guy i got the mower from but im very pleased with it as it sits
