Engine cradle interchangeable

[gilstr 14]

I have just bought a C-175, for only 20 bucks by the way lol.  Has no engine cradle and I'm putting a new 670 predator on it. Really want to use a cradle back on it so the engine sits high enough and won't have to make something to work. Seen some other cradles on ebay for 125 145 and 165. I know will probably have to drill new holes for the engine but will those bolts right on my 175 twin?

W section sign post... perfect height to line up pulleys...

Handsome tractor you have there, Jim. Now I understand why the short stop sign

Pretty good idea. I have some good pieces of metal to make something but getting burned out lol. But going to probably do it anyways

The cradles and mounting bars are different for the Twins and the singles.

 He is probably talking about the shorter stop sign at the end of your street....missing a few inches of W section sign post...
