boovuc 1,090 #2 Posted August 8, 2015 Hi Seven,In the simplest terms, as long as the output shaft of "any" engine is inch and an eighth, the length is minimally 2.75 inches, (some have been able to go a bit shorter), and the keyway is quarter inch, a standard wheelhorse PTO bell/assembly will fit it from the 70's thru to the end of the classic in the 90's. Some older engines had a one inch shaft but the overwhelming majority of PTO's are 1 1/8". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 10,539 #3 Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) The Commando 800 should have a 1" shaft. The 8hp Kohlers Wheel Horse used have a 1" shaft.A few of the early 10hp Kohlers Wheel Horse used have a 1" shaft.All the Briggs and Stratton engines Wheel Horse used have 1" shaft.It is the electric clutch that defines the Electro 12. Other than that it is basically a Charger 12.Garry Edited August 8, 2015 by gwest_ca Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boovuc 1,090 #5 Posted August 9, 2015 (edited) You got it! That's pretty much it! (As long as the motor was originally on a Wheelhorse)! Edited August 9, 2015 by boovuc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
