ebinmaine 71,027 #2 Posted March 21 Raider wasn't made in 1976. Those were 1968 to 1972. Irregardless... it should work. Both the B80 and Raider series used a manual transmission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daveoman1966 3,829 #3 Posted March 22 There are two different types of Tillers. and two different axle brackets. The drive belt is also different length #1599 (pre '73) is 139". #110265 is 141" I think you'll also find that the rear axle bracket is different for pre '73 tractors/tillers. You can make a Mid-Mount Idler pulley bracket...I've made many of them. Can't seem to find a pic of the pre-73 axle bracket, but it mounts vertically...not horizontally like the one above. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racinbob 11,775 #4 Posted March 22 Here's the styler for the older model 7-1211. You will need the correct bracket for whatever you have. That older model also calls for an idler that mounts directly in front of the transmission. This requires moving the running board out and a second belt guard. It does not use the mid mount (under the engine) idler Dave shows. It also has another idler mounted on the axle bracket. Manuals for both are available here on this site. With that being said you can 'convert' the old style drive to the later style. To do that you WILL need the idler Dave shows, eliminate the idler in front of the transmission and the second belt guard and the need to move the footrest. It would take an entirely different belt size not listed in any manual. This goes for all Unidrive transmissions. I used the older 7-1211 on my 1976 for years. I was tilling in a cover crop of buckwheat on heavy clay soil here. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
