I've been looking for ever trying to find a stock trans with matching numbers but I have yet to find one. Is there another trans that will fit and work properly.

Hello Ricky, welcome to the tractor forum.

MTD makes Huskee mowers for box stores, primarily TSC. You can get a new top cover for your transaxle for $80. See item #5 in attachment:

Huskee 13A0673G131 - Huskee Lawn Tractor (1998) (Tractor Supply) Transmission Assembly 618-0073 Parts Lookup with Diagrams | PartsTree

____

Your transmission part number should be 618-0073?? Replaced by part number 918-0163B / 918-0163D, according to MTD. See below:

Ebay posted on the internet that they had a used 618-0166A transaxle, but that is gone.

Part# 618-0166A is also Superseded to 918-0166D. So., you can expand your search to both numbers. You can find a new 918-0166D for $600-$700.
