dustycarter 3 #1 Posted July 6, 2010 Hello. I have a 312-8 Kohler m12 I just rebuilt. Put it together and it was fine.started real good. But the thing is, I can only mount 2 holes to the frame and engine. Is there a bracket that goes there? It has been 2 years since I have taken it off and have forgot just about everything. If you have any pictures of your tractors with the mounts or how its supposed to mount, if you don't care please post them. I am just out of luck. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikesRJ 552 #2 Posted July 6, 2010 look on the bottom side of the engine in the pan. there should be two tapped holes for two more bolts. See this post image: http://www.wheelhorseforum.com/index.php?...ndpost&p=160583 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,974 #4 Posted July 6, 2010 In those two years since you took it off, you must have lost the factory issued "C" clamp Just kidding. The above posts are correct. Two bolts go up through the frame and into tapped holes in the bottom of the pan. Bob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
