I killed this one once already a couple years back but just replaced the engine recently so now Im in the process of going over the rest of it so it can go back into service. Yesterday that involved pulling out the transaxle... it still works but the detent effect that keeps it in 3rd-4th is very weak so it can occasionally pop out of gear, keyways on the axle shafts are getting worn, and it leaks a bit past the axle shafts, so its been well used. I have a complete 960 plus a second 960 in pieces I can rob parts from(Thx Tyson)... havent really decided on which one will be the donor, maybe both. Once the Columbia is finished I'll see if there's enough good parts left for another tractor... but I kind of doubt there will be.
