pfrederi 20,479 #1 Posted 18 hours ago I am a bit of a pack rat and rarely throw anything away. I have accumulated a decent collection of belts. Figured I would have a 72 inch so i could test the hydro on the 875 junker I got. I have 69.5 71 73 and 74 no 72. She came with a dead B&S 10hp. So I got out an M8 I have had and got it installed enough to test but no belt. Engine hasn't been used in a few years fired up and runs pretty well. If the hydro works have to decide if I make it permanent. The front end need work Axle pivot is wobbly and the steering shaft flops around, Never realized back then WH did not put a bearing on the front end of the steering shaft. 6 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 78,645 #2 Posted 18 hours ago I might have a 72 here that used to be on one of Trina's but you can almost definitely get one faster 😉 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher 6,627 #10 Posted 1 hour ago (edited) Paul always good to have spare parts and belts. I have a few and one belt bought from the dealer years ago. Never could install on a start/gen engine. To long. Still hanging up in the second flor of the garage. I keep it as a memories of the old days when picking was easy!
