So far as original- what you said could be said for every tractor I have! Try as I might, none of my machines can claim 100% originality. A couple get close, but not all the way. I want to get a 520 axle for my Raider 14 as well. Well I more meant originality as far as engines and such. I can't claim any of mine are or will be original either. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kpinnc 14,222 #54 Posted Tuesday at 04:27 AM (edited) Not much done tonight. Got the PTO on. Still gotta install the linkages. Using the 4 inch drive pulley for an 8 speed, and the same size on the rear at the transmission. You have to modify the mounting of the engine but the side bosses align perfectly for a Wheel Horse PTO bracket.

Just meant that the bottom mounting bolt pattern and PTO height is different, but the side bolt pattern is like a Kohler. PTO bracket bolts right up.

kpinnc 14,222 #58 Posted Friday at 03:30 AM Been doing a little mock up. I have a couple rear fenders. I think I like the narrow rear fender better. Got too much going on for much of anything else until the end of next week. Maybe I can get these parts cleaned up by then. The first pic is the wide rear fender. Just for reference. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
