screech 16 #1 Posted October 21 I was given a non running 520H. I want to use the frame off the 520H and add a 16HP Kohler and 8 or 6 speed transmission. Will the frame match up to the 16HP Kohler and 8 or 6 speed transmission? Thank You! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cleat 6,097 #2 Posted October 21 Yes, the 520 uses the same frame as the 300 and 400 series. Some of them have a reinforcement plate where the trans bolts up but the only thing you need is the proper length bolts (just a little longer). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screech 16 #3 Posted October 21 Thank You Cleat. This is the first Hydro I have had. I do not think I want to try getting the 520H going, it is very rough. Plus I have several 6 and 8 speed part tractors to pull parts off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 55,392 #4 Posted October 21 Clutch and brake linkages will not be the same but they can be made or sourced from a 300/400 series parts tractor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver2-44 9,787 #5 Posted October 22 Have you considered keeping the Hydro and just installing the 16hp Kohler. It should still be a beast. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
