bottjernat1 2,194 #1 Posted March 6, 2020 I will be buying tomorrow from my son in laws dad a 856 wheelhorse! It needs a little TLC but nothing major runs on starting fluid. I will get it dialed in. Has a deck. It is in over all in good shape in my opinion. Im getting a heck of a deal i even talked him down on it. If the frame has any issues i have the spare frame that is an 856 frame from the old man that redid my wife's kohler kv181 motor. Pretty excited!! 4 5 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me look through it here in a little bit I'll send you what I have. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
