Bill D 2,248 #1 Posted June 20, 2020 I picked up a GT 1142 with a Kohler Command in it. The model is CH12.5S, spec 1920, serial 2411608194. Does this engine have ball bearings or the proper thrust bearing to handle the PTO side loading. Thanks. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kasey54 305 #2 Posted June 20, 2020 I've seen a few of the commands on the newer 300 series and all three had elect. clutches. 2 314HP, and 1 315. I assume they need them, but I'm not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,482 #3 Posted June 20, 2020 Here is a parts list. Looks like a sleeve bearing to me. (Bushing) https://www.partstree.com/models/ch12-5-1920-kohler-command-pro-single-engine-made-for-cub-cadet-12-5hp/ Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
