Gilou15 8 #1 Posted yesterday at 09:42 AM Hello ! I have the opportunity to buy (250€) a 512 D (for Diesel !!) It is in a poor condition and not complete (no PTO and starting motor ,no mower neither tools ) It is running and used to pull a little trailer .. The transaxle eight speed is ok What do you thing about ? In France ,it is very rare to find a WH and expensive...(I am searching ( for a long time ) for a 520H !! Rather impossible!! I have a poor Rider 10 Four speed to rebuilt and I would like to increase it with a 8 Speed gear boxe and a big engine ....... Thanks for yours answers Gilou d0b420ef01b958253a4ce14e349ebe2340195854.webp 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 56,884 #2 Posted yesterday at 12:19 PM Mounting an eight speed on your Raider will work but the clutch and brakes on the later model are operated by two separate pedals so you will need to do a bit of fabrication. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oliver2-44 10,115 #5 Posted yesterday at 04:19 PM The Diesel Wheel Horse is definitely one worth restoring. The Raider may require some modification to the brake linkage when you switch to an eight speed, but not to complicated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
