 It’s a 1981 and was an anniversary model. Really the only cool factor was silver decals.  
 Otherwise it was made with leftover hoods/fenders etc from the older style WH’s. In 81 the current WH’s were the Black Hoods. 
  WH also used an 11HP Briggs and Stratton power plant.

One last thing, is that Briggs a good motor for a pulling tractor.

I don’t know the specs on it, but I’m fairly certain it has less torque than the Kohler 10 or 12. Another thing to consider if it’s going to be a puller is that the GT-2500 has the smaller 1” axles and the 10 pinion rear, which is not the preferred rear end by the pulling crowd.

There is a keyway on the axle and hub if that’s what you’re asking.
